The hotel is located centrally, across from the Rathaus and the Münsterkirche. It's within walking distance of pretty much anything you could need. The staff are very friendly and helpful, the room was very comfortable and inviting, and the breakfast was delicious.

Pit stop on my way to Bavaria

A little difficulty as I arrived, had to phone the reception, well I was with a colleague who spoke German- so we entered after being given a password. If on my own would be a problem as my telephone had stopped- roaming exhausted on the drive. However, all sorted - it would have been easier if there was someone on reception.

Sehr gepflegtes Haus mit wirklich freundlichen und zuvorkommend Personal.
Die Lage in der Innenstadt ist toll zentral und trotzdem ruhig - wir konnten wirklich gut schlafen.
Es gibt im Haus kein Restaurant, aber das wussten wir schon im Voraus. In wenigen Minuten zu Fuß sind einige Lokale zu erreichen, die wirklich gut sind. Wir waren beim Gasthaus Föge und das Essen war gut wie bei Oma.

Bra läge. Gratis parkering. Smidig check in. Rymligt rum och överlag väldigt rent. Något mindre toalett. Trots äldre bygge noterades ingen lyhördhet. Sängen var något hård men det är en smaksak. Bra utbud av huvudkuddar. Enkel men fullt adekvat frukost. Väldigt trevlig och tillmötesgående personal!

Sehr schönes Hotel!
Ich mag sowieso viel lieber so kleinere Hotels. Die Leute dort waren sehr freundlich!
Ich bin später angekommen als abends die Rezeption offen hatte, da ich aber vorher angerufen hatte ging das auch völlig einfach von statten!
Das Zimmer und das Bad waren sehr sauber.
Das Frühstück war lecker! Wenn ich wieder in die Gegend komme dann gerne wieder im Hotel zur Fürstabtei.
Ich war ja schon in vielen verschiedenen Hotels unterwegs. Also! warum soll ich was anderes schreiben! Diese gute Bewertung gebe ich sehr gerne ab.
