“Despite the location, an excellent stay”

The location - ok - not Lichtenfels specifically, which is a nice German town, but the hotel is a bit on the edge in an industrial area, with a shabby casino opposite, so it has to be said that the first impression (and exterior of the hotel) was not too great.

The location - ok - not Lichtenfels specifically, which is a nice German town, but the hotel is a bit on the edge in an industrial area, with a shabby casino opposite, so it has to be said that the first impression (and exterior of the hotel) was not too great. That's unfair though, because in other respects this hotel was faultless. Good value. Very nice room, with a few extra touches that you don't often get (tea making facilities, disposable razor and toothbrush in the bathroom in case you've forgotten your own). Generally I thought the hotel was great. Breakfast was fantastic - really well presented and a nice high quality selection. I didn't use the Wifi but believe it is throughout and free. I saw evidence of a small gym but didn't use it so can't comment. The restaurant (Italian) was - as other TA reviews testify - busy, so it was difficult for them to find a table to us. Once they did, the service was very slow (about 1 hour passed between them taking our order and bringing starters). However, the waitress did say that they were short-staffed that night, so I wouldn't assume that would always be the case. The food quality was great. Superb.

“Nice stay in Lichtenfels”

The hotel is nice and quiet. It has a free private parking. We had dinner at the restaurant and it was excellent! Good location if you have a car otherwise it could be a little tricky to move from there into town.

“good value, minor blemishes only”

This is a family-run hotel, incorporating a busy Italian restaurant. For a bargan price of less than 50 e including breakfast I got a really nice, spacious and quietly situated room, with a comfortable wide bed, well equipped bathroom, efficient wifi and more than adequate heating. At checkin I was… lisää

This is a family-run hotel, incorporating a busy Italian restaurant. For a bargan price of less than 50 e including breakfast I got a really nice, spacious and quietly situated room, with a comfortable wide bed, well equipped bathroom, efficient wifi and more than adequate heating. At checkin I was warmly welcomed, and there were no 'hidden' extras to pay. The breakfast was very good - German standards are high, but this one definitely makes the cut, with excellent fresh breads, cheeses, fruits and all the usual items of high quality. Cherry jiuce offers some local colour. There were only a few minor inconveniences. The hotel reception is not manned in the evening (nor at Sunday lunchtime), so arrivals and departures at such times have to be handled by wandering into the restaurant. The restaurant is crowded at the weekend, testifying to the good quality of the food. But this means that reservations are essential. I ended up being seated at the bar, but service was extremely slow. The only other oddity was one of the elevators, which seemed to have a penchant for taking you on a random tour of the hotel before finally arriving at the floor you actually selected. The location of the hotel, at the edge of town, but near the main highway and beside a supermarket, is convenient for those arriving by car. From the railway station it's a 30 min walk. However, I found taxis in Lichtenfels to be few and far between. Three times i was left waiting for over half an hour, so walking to town is probably the most reliable option.

“Fantastic Value for Money”

The key thing about this hotel is that it's only 44 euro per night for bed and breakfast. The Rooms are basic but are a good size and clean, the hotel lobby etc. is nice and the adjoining restaurant (restaurant Rossini) is probably one of the best restaurants in the local area.

The key thing about this hotel is that it's only 44 euro per night for bed and breakfast. The Rooms are basic but are a good size and clean, the hotel lobby etc. is nice and the adjoining restaurant (restaurant Rossini) is probably one of the best restaurants in the local area. There is also a sauna, which can be a relief at the end of a stressful day. The hotel is far from perfect, and certainly not luxury but in terms pf value for money it is possibly the best hotel I have ever stayed in.
