A very nice hotel with loving details. The room was very large, the beds were comfortable and the bathroom was also very large and there was plenty of storage space for cosmetics, towels etc. The breakfast was very good and there were handmade cream cheese varieties and nothing was missing. The hotel owner was very friendly and we felt really comfortable and would love to come back

The Goldener Anker is a hotel housed in 500-year-old walls. The rooms are lovingly furnished and the breakfast was freshly prepared. All in all, looks nice. Price/performance was also right.

As it happens in life, spontaneous coincidences always have a meaning, due to a storm we found refuge in the hotel and were personally welcomed in an extremely friendly and helpful manner by the owner (we, me with my small children) unfortunately we were in transit, however We were so impressed by this willingness to help, which unfortunately is not a given, that we were in Bamberg again this week and booked directly into the Hotel Zum Goldenen Anker and stayed for two days!! And over the two days, the entire team was super friendly and warm, especially to my two boys, child-friendly, clean hotel, great breakfast and, as I said, the whole team was mega!!!Thank you so much and definitely see you soon…La famiglia Ferrarese

We were only there for a short vacation, but we will definitely come back and book this hotel again. According to the operator, we had the best room in the house with a very large, newly renovated bathroom, a very comfortable bed (with extra pillows and blankets), and... our own small covered balcony! Despite the location on a major street, it is very quiet and we had no problem finding a free parking space within a 2-minute walk. It is almost 500 meters to the old town, so it is not difficult to explore the city on foot.
