Nice hotel in the middle of the old town where it all happens. Lovely peaceful courtyard, especially in the evening when you have just come in from the street's lively evening life. Take a cup of beer home in the evening and enjoy it in the courtyard, where the hotel's cafe closes at 19.

Historical ambience, which was probably extensively renovated at the time. Back then means the 90s and that's what you can see: chipped paint on the windows, rusty side trolleys, old and rusty shower cubicle and fittings.Nice terrace, but leaves could be removed and especially cobwebs everywhere.Breakfast was wonderful, great quality and the coffee was brought to the terrace by friendly service.Empty beer crates etc. were particularly annoying.All in all too expensive.

Location 1a in the beautiful old town of Bamberg. Parking for 15 euros a day is OK. The house has a lot of flair, you feel like you've been transported back a few centuries. Good breakfast, just as the standard requires.We had a room with a beautiful view of the beautiful courtyard, but the mattress was terribly hard.The old manor house exudes a lot of tradition and flair, but of course at the expense of luxury and modern similarities.

Immerse yourself in the wonderful world of baroque palaces. The breakfast room impresses with delicious food, quite rich. And the arrival after midnight leads through a mystical magical realm of light and shadow play. Highly recommended!

The palace is actually a very beautiful and well-preserved old building with a cozy inner courtyard and café.The rooms are large, with high ceilings and very tastefully furnished to make you feel comfortable.The reception and breakfast staff were found to be very friendly and were able to further improve the good overall impression.The downside is the very central location a few meters from the cathedral and the restaurant alley: the room windows have almost nothing to counteract the exuberant joy of the weekend night owls. Since sleep is out of the question, it's best to just celebrate.
