My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although smaller than expected, were comfortable, spotlessly clean, and pleasantly surprising with the extra bed setup. On the downside, there were limited dining options available. The location was excellent, offering a beautiful view of the river and castle, but parking was not provided onsite. The service was average, and the dining experience was good. Overall, a decent stay with some highs and lows.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel with spacious and clean rooms offering a beautiful view of the river, old bridge, and fortress. The location was perfect, near the Christmas Markets and within walking distance of major attractions in Wurzburg. The dining experience was decent but could have had more breakfast options. Overall, a great value for money choice in a convenient and scenic area.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The room was quiet with a beautiful view of the river, old bridge, and fortress on the other side. It was very comfortable, spotless, and a pleasant surprise overall. Though the European style was simple, it added a nice touch from one room to another.

The location was very good, offering a superb view of the river Main and Marienberg. Although it was in a backstreet where parking was a bit of a challenge, the proximity to the river, Alter Kranen, bars, restaurants, and the old city center made up for it.

The dining experience was good with a great selection of dishes. However, for those not fond of eggs, cheeses, and cold meat cuts, the options might seem a bit limited compared to other hotels in the area.
