We felt very comfortable, had an apartment in the back area. In the back yard there were tables and chairs beautifully decorated for Christmas. You could smoke there.

Simple hotel, but ok for the price. In any case, the breakfast itself is commendable and the breakfast room with reception is a splendor that overlooks the somewhat outdated rooms. Great location in the old town. It can get louder at night as there are a few bars nearby, so you have to accept that.It takes about 15 - 20 minutes on foot from the train station, which gives you a good overview of Bamberg.

It was very nice in this hotel, we would stay again in a heartbeat.We had rooms facing the courtyard, which was quiet. The breakfast was very nicely prepared, the staff was extremely friendly, but 5 stars

The central location was positive, you could really reach everything on foot.A joke was the Wi-Fi, which didn't work at all. And the absolute negatives were the sagging mattresses and the noise until the morning as the street was very busy
