Central beliggenhed i rolige omgivelser.
Vores foretrukne festspilhotel. Ultratæt på centrum, stille og rolige omgivelser, gode og billige parkeringsforhold, super morgenbuffet, og nem transport til Den Grønne Høj. - Efterlyser dog safebox på værelserne, der også er lidt trange.
God og venlig betjening.

Einfaches Hotel in zentraler Lage
Sehr einfaches Hotel, zentral und ruhig (wir hatten ein Zimmer zur Seitenstraße) gelegen. Weder Bayreuth noch das Hotel haben uns besonders gefallen, aber bei dem relativ günstigen Preis ist das Hotel wohl akzeptabel.

Room and bathroom clean but rather dated. Woodchip wallpaper painted yellow. Crack in one wall. Furniture a bit dated. A bit like staying in student accommodation from 30 years ago. Bar and reception staff very helpful and efficient. Didn’t eat breakfast in the hotel because it was fairly pricey and alternatives within walking distance. Hotel was in a good location.

Ist okay, aber nichts besonderes, für den Preis hätte ich mehr erwartet. Das Zimmer bzw. die Einrichtung ist schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen.
