This hotel is located right on the main street on the island so it's very well located for shopping and dining nearby. We only stayed one night due to travel but if you're in this area it's a very good option. …

Great location in the old town (as a cyclist)Great breakfast, nice reception.My room was clean, there is a fridge and a fan, which is more important than TV in the heat. I'd be happy to come back when I'm at Lake Constance

The central location is great, the streets in Lindau are unsuitable for wheeled suitcases...everyone was very friendly.Since I didn't eat breakfast, I can't comment on it.

Perfect central location, with cozy and spotless rooms. Breakfast was varied and fresh with quality products. What really stood out to me was how friendly and caring all the staff was to us. Everyone was patient and extremely welcoming with my kids, even though we don't speak German. Many thanks to Moritz who greeted us, was super friendly with the kids and generally made our stay perfect!

Still my first choice if I want to stay overnight in Lindau on the island. The summer prices are sporty - compared to the simple but completely sufficient standard. The quality of the breakfast is worth an extra star!
