The hotel is fine for the price. Sadly according to trip advisor offers a free breakfast but that turned out not to be the case - you have to pay extra for it.||They let us check in early which was great. Bed comfy but the towels very old and tatty. Room quite dated in terms of decor. Good location by the river.

It's not easy to find, and then get parking across the street, but the hotel is great. It's comfortable and clean and has all the necessities. The view was spectacular of the river. There are plenty of places to walk to to see.

Absolutely loved my stay here, I only wished I had planned longer in beautiful Wurtsburg. The hotel was perfectly located by the old town, an, easy tram ride or walk from the station and situated right on the river with lovely views. The room was smart and comfortable, and the service very personal and helpful. I will return!

We stayed here in 2010, and again now in March 2019. We were in a triple room which was two separate but connected rooms. The rooms aren't huge but are a decent size. This hotel is incredibly clean.  …
