The hotel is very centrally located in an inner courtyard, so you don't notice the unrest of the city. However, it gets quite loud in the courtyard early in the morning during the week. The building is also very noisy, which leads to restless nights. The furnishings are very individual and not very functional. We only had a clothes rail and two shelves at knee height to store our things. There was no drawer or anything similar where you could put something in, even though we had already booked the large room. The chairs in the room weren't very comfortable either. All in all, we lacked comfort.Unfortunately, the cleaning didn't meet our expectations either. It wasn't even vacuumed or mopped in 4 days.The highly praised breakfast did not correspond to the price-performance ratio we expected. For €18 there was no variety in the food and no warm egg dishes such as scrambled eggs or similar. We would have expected it differently based on the reviews given here.The staff was very friendly.All in all, we wouldn't book here again because we couldn't relax and didn't really feel comfortable.Unfortunately, the great location doesn't take away from that.

Wonderful, very special hotel! Spacious rooms (we had an apartment for 3 people), carefully renovated, tasteful design. Right in the center and still quiet. The breakfast also left nothing to be desired, all the staff were very accommodating and warm! Thank you!

A beautiful baroque merchant's house from the 16th century has been stylishly converted into a hotel with an elevator. The Hotel Fregehaus is very centrally and quietly located in the old town, it has a beautiful inner courtyard, a “Blue Salon” as a self-service lounge and a free, very good WiFi connection. Beautiful, stylishly furnished rooms, good service. My recommendation: book room number 3 or number 17. Breakfast costs €13, alternatively there are many cafes in the area. Leipzig's tourist information center is directly opposite the hotel, as is the impressive Museum of Fine Arts. There are good restaurants in the immediate vicinity of the hotel, e.g. B. Weinstock and parking garages, as well as the impressive market square.

The cute hotel is located right in the center of Leipzig! It was only a 5 minute walk to Barfüßer Gässchen where the “bear” dances :-) the hotel was great, super friendly staff, clean and large room. Since the old building is a bit warm in summer without air conditioning. In the morning we were rudely woken up at 6.30am by noise in the courtyard. Everyday life starts at 6 a.m. during the week, you should keep that in mind! It's definitely quieter on the weekend! And when you arrive you can only unload briefly and then go into the parking garage. The Höfe am Brühl are right in front of the door and should be taken into account at €18/night. Otherwise everything was great! You can book with a clear conscience!

I often stay in Leipzig for work, but this beautiful hotel surpasses everything. I wouldn't want to stay anywhere else in Leipzig. This hotel offers soothing tranquility. It is lovingly furnished and very quiet; you wake up to the chirping of birds. The inner courtyard invites you to linger. The breakfast is not only extremely tasty, but also excellently presented and tasteful. The service is unparalleled.

Centrally yet quietly located. Very nicely restored. There is also an elevator, a small library and the opportunity to buy cheap drinks. Breakfast was served as a buffet in a pleasant atmosphere and there was a good selection of drinks. We booked an apartment, the beds and bathroom were good. Only the seating in the kitchen wasn't that comfortable. We would book there again.

Absolute recommendation. Individual rooms, charm, great organic breakfast and absolutely central location. The flower shop in the courtyard and the antique shop are also super nice.
