The location of the hotel is very convenient to visit the old town of Wiemar. I was in town for two days for work and had a great stay. The room is large and comfortable. The coffee maker was very nice and made good coffee, it was restocked during room cleaning. The only downside is that the parking lot is a bit small for the hotel. On the second night when I returned to the hotel after dinner, the lot was full and I had to park in a public garage about 7 minutes walk away even though I had paid for parking at the hotel. I did not try to restaurant.

This house truely can be your home from home or your hime for your visit to Weimar - the property oozes history, yet boast modern renovated and well appointed rooms across a wide range of price segments. The centre point of the property is the light hall (inside) and the splendid garden out the back. The comfort of the house is well complimented by excellent and caring staff throughout. Finally, the creative chef de cuisine and his crew in the kitchen, are creating culinary creations that the well trained and charming restaurant crew will bring to your table, when dining at restaurant AnnA - inside or on tge terrace

Cool hotel, love the design. Location is perfect. Only minus is service. The front desk was unwelcoming so was the staff at the breakfast restaurant. I don’t have high expectations for service in Germany but the staff at this hotel was especially sleepy and unwelcoming compared to other Marriott hotels I’ve stayed in Germany so far

Central in the city of Weimar. Belonging to Arabella hotels in Munich. Good managed property and accommodating people. Rooms are ok. Good sightseeing possibilities. No hotel parking available, but in the street. Nice also for Christmas Market.

Right in the city center with parking provided. Large rooms, comfy beds, nice design, very quiet. Friendly staff, just at the checkout various items on our invoice were wrong, I found that irritating. |The hotel rooms are quiet, yet the doors of all guest rooms shut close with a very loud bang, I woke up a few times.

The bed was very good. Sheets good qualify. We had a King Deluxe room which was a good size and well appointed. It was the best hotel of our 10 day holiday in Germany. Breakfast in the garden was a nice setting. Our little dog was a welcomed guest.
