Perfect if you are visiting the university, also close to the railway station and just outside the historic centre of town. Very modern, and a lot of attention to small details (eg nice soap and shampoo in little bottles replaced every day, a bottle of water refilled daily and so on). Extremely friendly desk, staffed 24/7. Very quiet side street (bar a late night party in the high school across the street on Thursday night:-) )

The hotel was just ok. We found the room to be tiny and dreary. I wish we stayed somewhere else, but I will say the staff members were really nice and helpful. Location is good and the old town as well as train station are about 10 minutes away walking.

The Alex Hotel in Freiburg is very conveniently located, close to the central station and the city center. The hotel and the rooms are modern and clean. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast is creative and of very high quality. To me, this is by far the best hotel in town — highly recommended!
