History over comfort, be prepared

Really nice friendly staff in a historic building. The WiFi was reliable and the bathroom was nicely appointed. The shower was a glass cubicle in the room due to the constraints of the old building.

It's pretty echoey in there (again because of the old building) and the floor in the room is wooden floorboards with gaps in them big enough to lose a ring down, so maybe don't bring your favourite jewellery! It was very squeaky to walk around. In addition, there was no bedside table which was a shame, instead some ugly metal lockers which presumably were meant to fit the jail \"theme\". Overall it was fine and well worth staying if you are fascinated with the history, perhaps if you prefer comfort and quiet, you should choose a more modern hotel!

Above & Beyond

When I learned my flight was delayed, I called to let the hotel know I'd be late. I was told it would be no problem and that I should call when I arrived. After multiple flight issues, I didn't arrive at the hotel until almost 2 A.M., but was welcomed with a smile and made to feel like a valued customer. I learned the building where the hotel is had previously been a jail and even stayed in the former clinic. The breakfast the next morning was excellent, but the reason I'll return the next time I'm in the area is because of the customer service focus. I'd highly recommend Hotel Fronfeste!

Not your typical hotel—loved it

The fact that the hotel used to be a prison makes it an interesting (I prefer not to use the word “fun”) place to stay. You can stay in a former cell or one of the larger rooms (such as the former doctor’s room) if traveling with another person. The staff was friendly, the rooms were clean (we stayed there twice in two different rooms), and a nice breakfast buffet is available that is just the right size.

Hotel with Character

Amazing hotel! 5/5, would stay again! Matter of fact, was my second time staying at this hotel! This hotel is Amberg’s old jail/prison. That being said, naturally, it has all been remodeled and renovated. Beautifully may I add. The character of the hotel and rooms is lovely. From reception, to the room/bathroom, to the buffet breakfast, and checking out/departure, 5/5! Bonus, they do have English speaking employees and a parking garage (only cost us €3.50 for 12 hrs) a short walk away.

Originelle Zimmer in ehemaligen Gefängnis

Sehr schön renovierte Unterkunft, originelle Zimmer in ehemaligen Zellen, perfekte Aufteilung. Ruhige und doch sehr zentrale Lage, gute Parkmöglichkeiten, sehr ansprechendes und leckeres Frühstück mit großer Auswahl. Wunderschöne Sitzgelegenheiten im Innenhof. Sehr zu empfehlen!

Außergewöhnliches, erlebenswertes Hotelkonzept

Ein außergewöhnliches „Knast“-Hotelkonzept, bei dem Staunen, Spaß, Wohnlichkeit u. Aufenthaltsqualität mit Liebe zum Detail verbunden wird.
Durch das sehr freundliche Personal fühlt man sich gut aufgehoben im „Knast“ u. könnt es sicherlich auch länger dort aushalten.
Eingebunden in die sehenswerte Amberger Altstadt, sowie auch Bahnhofsnähe, kann auch das Auto gut stehen gelassen werden.
Für mich war’s ein gelungenes „Gesamtpaket“ u. für mögliche folgende Amberg-Besuche trete ich gerne wieder freiwillig die „Haft im Knasthotel“ an.

Sehr schönes Hotel, einzigartiger Aufenthalt

Einzigartiges Ambiente, da es sich um ein ehemaliges Gefängnis handelt. Das Thema wird überall durchgezogen, das macht Spaß!

Nicht nur Amberg hat uns sehr positiv überrascht, sondern auch das Hotel Fronfeste.
Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal und ein detailverliebtes, interessantes und sehr besonderes Ambiente machten unseren Aufenthalt zu einem echten Erlebnis! Vielen Dank! Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Schöner Aufenthalt in einem sehr interessanten Hotel. Spannend den Umbau des Gefängnisses in den Bilder im Zimmer und anderen Stellen nachzuvollziehen.


Eine absolute Empfehlung!

Das Hotel war einmal ein Gefängnis. Das Thema ist äußerst originell und detailgetreu umgesetzt. Macht richtig Spaß immer wieder neue Kleinigkeiten zu entdecken. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich, das Frühstück läßt keine Wünsche offen. Die Lage in dieser bezaubernden Stadt ist optimal. Wir waren rundum begeistert und kommen mit Sicherheit wieder.

Wir waren für zwei Nächte „eingebuchtet“ und es hat alles gestimmt. Unsere Zelle war klein, aber fein. Das Personal war super nett und kompetent. Am Frühstücksbuffet blieben keine Wünsche offen, es wurde auch alles immer wieder aufgefüllt. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder.

Übernachten im Gefängnis ist wirklich mal was Neues. Und dies wird hier zelebriert. Bitte die lokalen Schilder beachten oder die Uniform der Hotelangestellten. Ausstattung ist simpel und es gibt wirklich \"Wasser und Brot\" in der Zelle.

Alles gut! Könnte aber zum Frühstück einen Englisch Breakfast Tea anbieten, Darjeeling oder Schwarzer Tee Klassik sind keine guten Frühstücksbegleiter!

Gerne wieder

Ein ganz anderes Hotel! Die Zimmer sind alle im 'Zellen'-Look in einem alten Gefängnis eingerichtet (allerdings mit erweitertem Comfort), und auch das Personal ist in Uniform (aber auch hier vermutlich freundlicher als in einer echten Anstalt). Von der lage her praktischm, die Innenstadt nur wenige Schritte entfernt und das große Parkhaus mit humanen Abend/Nacht-Tarifen direkt hinter dem Haus. Frühstück war für den Preis korrekt aber nicht vergleichbar mit dem was manche andere/größere Hotels aufbauen.

Gerne Lebenslänglich

Hervorragend. Knast mit Liebe zum Detail. Wir waren im Hochsicherheitstrakt. Das Zimmer hat seinen Namen zurecht. Tolles Erlebnis. Auch für Familien geeignet. Sehr gutes Frühstück für neun Euro. Top Servicepersonal ob an der Rezeption oder im Frühstücksraum. Alle sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Parkmöglichkeit direkt hinter dem Haus in der Parkgarage möglich. Kosten 1,50 pro NACHT !!! Perfekte Lage in der Altstadt. Fußläufig viele Gaststätten zu erreichen.

Komfort für ein Gefängniss supi. Doch wenn´s authentisch sein soll, kann man diesen nicht übertreiben - das ist auch gut so.

Das Hotel hat ein einzigartiges Ambiente. Trotz des gebotenen, gehobenen Komforts ist die Authentität des Gebäudes erhalten geblieben. Sehr eindrucksvoll.
Das Personal ist unglaublich symphatisch, man fühlt sich sofort herzlich aufgenommen.
Das Frühstücksbuffet war mit so viel Liebe angerichtet - uns fehlten die Worte...
Insgesamt eine tolle Erfahrung, wir werden sicher Wiederhohlungstäter!!

Kaum zu toppen!

Super Zimmer (Nr 31), groß und interessant möbliert. Das Bett war sehr bequem, sogar ein zweites Kissen hatte ich bekommen. Das Fenster kann man öffnen, das Badezimmer ist zwar klein, aber sehr schön gestaltet. Die Freundlichkeit des Personals war ganz große Klasse und wir wurden sogar aufs Zimmer begleitet.
Beim Frühstück haben wir nichts vermisst, es war ausreichend und von ordentlicher Qualität. Manches sogar in Bio-Qualität.
Von der Lage her ist das Hotel nicht zu toppen: Jede Menge Gastronomie und Läden drum herum. So ein Abendbummel macht Spaß.
Parken kann man auf dem Platz vor dem Hotel, leider immer nur 2 Stunden (tagsüber), aber in direkter Nachbarschaft hat es auch ein Parkhaus, da hat man als Hotelgast Sonderkonditionen.
Amberg ist eine wunderschöne Stadt mit viel interessanter Historie und Sehenswürdigkeiten - wenn wir wieder hierher kommen (was sehr wahrscheinlich ist), werden wir wieder hier übernachten!

Hallo,

wenn man im Knasthotel übernachtet muss man keinen Komfort erwarten... Allerdings ist es unangenehm, wenn die Matratze ständig rutscht. Der Frühstücksservice war sehr gut, allerdings der Reinigungsservice unmotiviert. Eigentlich schade...
