Editorial
Hotel overview
Set in Erfurt’s historic center, this 4-star hotel blends contemporary convenience with easy access to the city's highlights. Guests appreciate the swift check-in process, well-appointed rooms, and reliable free Wi-Fi throughout the property.
A daily complimentary breakfast fuels mornings before exploring medieval streets, including the famous Krämerbrücke and the majestic Cathedral of St. Mary nearby. While the interior has a modern touch, some rooms feature practical kitchenettes, ideal for longer stays or travelers preferring self-catering options.
A cozy on-site sauna offers a relaxing retreat after a day of sightseeing. The hotel welcomes pets, enhancing its appeal for guests traveling with companions. A bar is available, providing a casual spot to unwind but there is no full restaurant onsite. Parking is available for a fee, and an airport shuttle facilitates seamless arrivals and departures.
Though some reviewers noted the beds are a bit basic and bathrooms lean towards a functional, clinical style, overall comfort and friendly staff contribute to a positive stay. Its strategic location, just minutes from Erfurt Hauptbahnhof, allows easy access to major transport links and surrounding attractions.

Guest reviews
What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Walking distance from the Erfurt Train Station, this is an excellent hotel. Check-in was fast, the room exceptional, and the breakfast, included in the price of our three-day stay m, was something else.”
“A good hotel in an excellent location, close to the train station and city center. Rooms are clean and comfortable, though the interior feels a bit dated. Breakfast is often praised and offers a good variety. Staff is friendly and everything runs smoothly overall.”
“Good location, good breakfast, super friendly staff. One point off for the double bed being 2x singles shoved together and leaving a big crack in the middle. Also the bathroom looks like some hospital than a cosy place to give you a homey feeling”
