Apparently the oldest hotel in Torgau. Looks very well maintained but no restaurant and seems deserted in the evening. Too bad.

We were greeted very unfriendly. The room assigned to us was very uncomfortable. Under the roof, unreasonable at over 30 degrees. The shutters and floodlights were broken. We complained, at first they said they were fully booked, but when we weren't satisfied we were given a better room. So fully booked wasn't true at all.

Check-in was quite chaotic and bordered on unfriendly.Since it was really extremely hot, we were told several times that we would get the cooler rooms. It was still so hot and stuffy in the room that it was hard to sleep. Since there are probably no external roller blinds installed due to monument protection, the roller blinds are installed inside. No pleats, blinds or curtains, just ugly, rickety plastic external roller blinds with a loud electric drive that are simply placed inside in front of the window recess.Since the hotel is located directly on the market square, it is difficult to leave the windows open overnight due to the noise. The next morning noticed that the room had air conditioning! This wasn't mentioned at all! A note was found under the information folder with the information: "You are probably surprised that we have air conditioning, as we do not advertise it. Due to energy prices, using the air conditioning costs €10 extra, the remote control is available at reception."Demanding an extra charge for the air conditioning is really cheeky given the already very high prices, but not pointing out the air conditioning to the guest at all given the extreme temperatures is completely stupid.The bathroom was renovated in an amateurish manner, the tiles were badly painted over, old drill holes were not filled, the edges of the laminate were not grouted. Glass doors to the bathroom are actually a no-go, even though more and more hotels are doing this.There were no trash bags in the trash cans. The house is very noisy, you don't hear much from outside, but from the room above you can hear every single step, conversations in the hallway as loud as if the door were open. Overall, much more appearance than reality.The beds/mattresses were good, as was the breakfast. But the price-performance ratio is outrageous, the prices are completely excessive. The night before we slept in a comparable hotel that only cost half as much (with working air conditioning).

After a long, warm bike ride along the Elbe, we spent the night in this hotel. A beautiful old hotel with a surprising interior. Good beds, nice sanitary facilities and an extensive breakfast buffet. …

We received an unfriendly welcome and were assigned an ugly room in the attic with temperatures over 30°C. We refused this, were initially rejected with the message "fully booked", but then we found an acceptable room.We can't recommend it.

Nice hotel with a very long history. Nice rooms, super nice staff and breakfast. The location is central and ideal for going on excursions. A very important point for me, cyclist-friendly, you can park your bike safely and dry. Many thanks to the whole team
