“Mixed emotions about this hotel”

Spent 3 nights here while attending a family wedding. A comfortable room. We ate the buffet the first night which was extremely unimpressive. Breakfast was very good, with plenty of choice for both hot and cold food. It was a shame hot dog type sausages were the only choice on the third morning, we had both enjoyed the more traditional style of sausage offered on the previous two mornings. My main complaint is that neither the restaurant nor the bar opened on the Sunday. I do not understand why a hotel bar in particular would be closed to guests. A great shame as there were a lot of positives.

Good location on the bike trail in Leipzig . Really impressive lobby and restaurant . Reception friendly . Room large and nice and clean with comfortable bed . Bathroom clean and bright . Good secure inside bike storage . Very good breakfast with many food choices . On-site restaurant had a very limited menu and our service left a bit to be desired. It appears that they were short on serving staff and it showed.

“Wonderful hotel outside Leipzig”

Arriving at the hotel, I was amazed at the beautiful reception and well-outfitted bar. The employees at the front desk were warm and cheerful, and I was admitted to my room without issue.

Arriving at the hotel, I was amazed at the beautiful reception and well-outfitted bar. The employees at the front desk were warm and cheerful, and I was admitted to my room without issue. The room is what you'd expect for the price: clean, with a respectable and well-outfitted bathroom. There were no handouts, which in my opinion is a good thing because I always bring my own. The TV screen was unexpectedly huge, but I didn't use it. What must absolutely be said is that the hospitality at the bar and restaurant are impeccable. We had dinner there on the first night, and it was amazing. They served a pork knuckle with a sort of potato tortilla and sauerkraut, and it was the best thing I've had in a good long while, easily above some Michelin star-meals I've had. It's also very cheap in comparison. The only negative feedback I have is concerning the drinks list - it needs expanding. The location is just outside Leipzig, which is fine - a cab ride puts you at about ten euros which takes ten minutes.

“Adequate for a short stay”

This hotel is located near a quiet residential area which is perhaps good if you need some peace and quiet but I didn’t like it because there were no shops, cafes, restaurants or any sort of entertainment within walking distance. So basically you have to drive if you need anything. On the plus side there are many free parking space around the residential area near the hotel. The room was clean and comfortable enough but they didn’t even provide a water boiler or any free tea/coffee. I only found out later that you need to book a much more expensive room if you wanted those facilities. I find that kind of unacceptable as this is a 4 star hotel and those are very basic facilities. It was autumn but somehow the room was really hot even though the heating was off. There was no temperature controller in the room. At night it gets colder but the blankets provided are winter blankets so it’s hot if you use the blanket and cold if you don’t use it. They have free internet connection in the room which is of average quality. If I have anything to recommend it would be the breakfast area and food selection. They have a large breakfast area which is good as during the times I was there it was always kind of packed. There is also a nice seating area outside if you prefer to seat outside. The food variety is really good and they have many healthy choices. Staff are friendly and also this hotel is environmentally friendly so if you don’t choose to clean your room you get a little gift (for me it was a pack of gummi bears). Overall for the price and for a short stay it was okay, but nothing special for me. I would give 3.5 stars out of 5 if there was that option.

“Sad Hotel in Leipzig”

This very sad hotel stuck in the 90’s was very disappointing .

This very sad hotel stuck in the 90’s was very disappointing . The hotel staff were friendly, but one couldn’t tell the staff from guests apart, because they didn’t wear a uniform or have name badges on. The room was very dark. Dark old rug, very dark wooden closets that were way to large for the room. That dark furniture had seen better days and the bed wasn’t comfortable. The bathroom a nightmare. The shower was old and dingy, black spots of mold between the grout. The soap dispenser was over 1 meter away from the sink. Very nerve racking. The breakfast buffet was somewhat disappointing. There was almost everything available, but the long lines at the 1 coffee maker wasn’t an ideal situation. After 1 week , I was happy to leave.
