It was a little difficult to find with a car (Google Maps kept taking us down streets we weren’t supposed to drive down), but once we did we were greeted warmly by Axle & given directions on where to park. …

Stayed two nights and had an excellent experience. The hotel was BEAUTIFUL and it's obvious that someone has spent a lot of time and love on keeping this property in excellent condition. Breakfast was excellent and the main lobby is simply gorgeous. Location is perfect just a block from the main square and a few doors down from the famous Xmas store. Staff was excellent and having a beer and snack out in front of the property was a real treat.

We were walking around the city and passed by this hotel. We went in to get some Glühwein to go. The interior of this place is incredibly atmospheric. Very beautiful. The staff is polite and friendly. We were pleased to visit this place. If you are not a guest of this hotel, I recommend just coming for a glass of wine.

A beautiful family run historic hotel. The owners pay attention to detail. We had the room in the “attic”, but it was roomy, charming and had a private little balcony across the hall where my wife and I were able to enjoy a bottle of the local wine. A memorable stay!

This hotel was quite charming, holds a tremendous amount of history and is centrally located to the Marienplatz. Staff was friendly, rooms VERY clean/tidy, and the morning breakfast for 15€ was perfect for us. Thanks for a nice stay, albeit brief.

Such a cool historic hotel! Staff is very friendly. Location is excellent other than it’s a haul from the train station with luggage. I’d recommend asking the hotel for help booking a taxi if you’re coming from the station.
