We stayed for one night and it was a pleasant experience. Rooms were clean and well-equipped, amenities provided. Breakfast was entirely okay given the price. Very courteous and friendly employees. If you want great value for your money and stay in the city center, I can thoroughly recommend the Pelikan. Parking provided for an additional fee of €5,50 per night in an outside car park.

This location is perfect for exploring Schwäbisch Gmünd! It is very clean and low frills! If you want fancy and over the top, this is not for you. Simple, clean, charming. Friendly staff also. I recommend!

We have stayed here many times over the years and have always been satisfied with the experience. It could use some updates and better air circulation. Bathrooms could stand a bit of updates. …

I came here with my girlfriend for a two-night stay to visit a friend of mine staying nearby. It was a lovely place for a fairly reasonable price.*Staff*All the staff we spoke to were friendly and fluent in English and German and they provided helpful information on the local area.*Rooms*Rooms were a bit small for a couples room but otherwise very nice.Bed was extremely comfortable. Shower and bathroom facilities were good. No toiletries provided. Absolutely fine for a short stay, may begin to feel a bit cramped for longer than a few days.*Breakfast*Breakfast was €5 per person and ran from 6 am - 10 am. We enjoyed the convenience and the food and tea was all quite good.*Location*The hotel is excellently located on a quiet street but only ten minutes walk from the train station or ten minutes from the town center. Schwabisch Gmund is a lovely town - streets are clean and nicely furnished, architecture feels classically germanic, and there are a handful of interesting things to see there. Plenty of good places to eat as well.All in all an excellent stay for the price, it may not be the height of luxury but covers all the bases of what you'd need.

Nice hotel with well maintained rooms. One of the old hotels in the town. Spent two nights in January, 2022.Rooms are a bit small compared to the other expensive options.Nothing much was available in the breakfast but i guess it was because of the less number of visitors during pandemic.The hotel felt nice and more lively during my last visit back in 2015 when there are more visitors and without pandemic.In my recent visit i felt the age of the hotel. May be a little renovation work could revive it and bring back it's charm.

We recently stayed at the Hotel Pelikan while we attended a friends' local 50 th birthday parade and celebration! The hotel was great about setting up our reservation via email, to accommodate our family of 4 and dog. …
