Lovely friendly clean hotel

I have been coming to this hotel every year (apart from Covid years) since 2009. It is a perfectly good 3 star hotel. It would probably rate a 4 star if it had air con. But the ceiling fans do a good job keeping the rooms cool. I am 85 years old with mobility problems. The location is ideal for me - the main railway station is opposite and there is a tram stop directly outside the hotel. It's only 4 tram stops - a ten minute journey - to Marienplatz in the heart of the city. It's an easy walking distance for most people. The area can be very noisy with a busy road and a backpacker hostel nearby where youngsters like to congregate after midnight. So guests susceptible to noise should book an inside courtyard room during hot weather when they might need to open a window. The front rooms are quiet when the windows are closed. The cheapest single rooms are basic but adequate. Anyone needing a walk-in-shower should mention it when booking. The worst thing about this hotel is the breakfast. The food is ok - the usual fare. But they don't serve black coffee! German coffee is usually good. This stuff comes from a machine and the milk is premixed. I tried the tea. A good choice of teabags but no boiling water - just warm water. A disgusting brew. Warm water is ok for coffee but we British expect our tea to be hot. I will certainly use this hotel again - but I will avoid the breakfast. There's plenty of other cafes nearby where you can get a decent cup of black coffee.

I wanted a hotel close to the train station because I was arriving from Salzburg in the evening. I don’t love neighborhoods by train stations, including this one. But! This hotel is beautiful (rooms are a little small) but the interiors are gorgeous. The room was very comfortable, and have small fridges, coffee and kettle (no robe/slippers) amenities like shampoo and bedding were top notch. I had one of the best coffee extra-grandes of my life. What sets this hotel apart is the front desk staff. Phenomenal from check in to check out. Thanks so much!!
