We stayed here for two nights as a rest stop.The hotel is at the end of the pedestrianised main street with many restaurants,but road access from outside the town is very easy- a ten minute taxi ride from the airfield. Straubing has plenty to see in respect of churches and the immense musum,and there are pleasant level shaded walks to the zoo ,or alongside the Danube. It is hard. to say much about an extremely good four star hotel- I could find no real flaws.I especially liked the large bathroom( superior class room) with no annoyance from the folding shower screen when using the bath.There was a full functional set of furniture in the bedroom ,and even enough coathooks. The breakfast buffet was in a good sized room ,with open windows( fine view) and gloves provided as a Covid consideration.As is often the case in Germany,the tea is far superior to any other country. Service is of a good standard- note that many items ,such as kettle,rubber bath mat etc.are available on request.I shall probably be back when I have more time.

“Great choice”

We had stopped at another hotel, which was full, and they reccomended we try this place---good choice! The staff in the reception were very friendly and helpful.

We had stopped at another hotel, which was full, and they reccomended we try this place---good choice! The staff in the reception were very friendly and helpful. Our room was very nice, modern, with everything we needed. The hotel has an elevator, which many of the older hotels didn't. Location was perfect, right at the end of the main walking street. Sunday breakfast was wonderful, hot foods, meat and cheese, sweets, they even had champagne. Parking was under the hotel, for a fee.

“Simple but good hotel in the city center”

The hotel is centrally located. Under the hotel is a large public parking garage, so ideally for travellers by car. When you walk outside of the door you are at the central market. The rooms are simple but spacious. This time we did not take the breakfast.

The good Friendly; really a warm welcome, clean, comfortable, good water pressure in shower, nice breakfast, comfortable beds, great location. The bad Internet connection This was not a holiday. Husband was being operated on in a clinic nearby and our stay was for him to recuperate for 8 days near to the clinic before flying home. During this period, we were both dealing with multiple urgent family and financial issues. We had changed from our original hotel where the internet was unreliable and I had specifically told the management here that the consistent, good speed and above all; RELIABLE internet was our most important pre-requisite. I had been assured, rather patronisingly that OF COURSE the internet was perfect. It wasn't - at one moment it would be exceptional with download of 60 or 70 mbps - at other times, within minutes and with no warning it would either just disappear, or show as connected but not take you to web pages. The Ugly This happened every day: late afternoon/evening - reasonably reliable night/early and late morning - little or no internet usage possible After the first day, when they responded by calling in the technician who said there was a problem with their provider, the national telecom company, they went into denial mode. The usual unacceptable whitewash came up: nobody else has a problem it is something with your machine etc Of course, this strategy also absolves them of the need to actually do anything about it. At one point, after being told it was my hardware problem, I went down into the lobby, connected with an open, unsecured wifi connection that was available there (but not in our room, unfortunately) and took screenshots of my machine's capacity to connect and function perfectly on the unsecured wifi but fail when accessing the same pages on the hotel network. This in order to demonstrate that it was NOT my hardware that was causing the problem. Denial was still the order of the day, and they also told me that I should not insist and that if I wasn't happy with this I could go to another hotel. Very disappointing. If we have to come back for further treatment we will stay at another hotel. If there is any update (we are due to stay for another few days) I will amend/add to this review.
