Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. The rooms were very warm and humid, large, equipped with necessary amenities like a TV, refrigerator, and a king-size bed, but felt rather old and limited in terms of functionality due to the unreliable air conditioning. The service was top-notch with professional and attentive staff. The location couldn't have been better for exploring Weimar's historical sites, right on the main town square. The dining experience was fantastic with superb options catering to all dietary needs. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room had a great view of the Market place and was warm and humid which made it very cozy, but it was a bit small for my liking. The service was friendly and courteous at the reception desk and the basement restaurant, but some areas seemed indifferent and not particularly welcoming. The location was excellent, right on the main town square, although it seemed unable to handle some guest requests. The dining experience was absolutely fabulous, offering diverse and delicious options, with a fantastic atmosphere. Overall, it was a stay with ups and downs, but the dining experience was a definite highlight.
