Like the other Welcome Hotel in Bamberg the buffet breakfast is understanding with a great range of German breads and rolls. cheese, cold meats, hot bacon, sausage and scrambled eggs, cereals including Birckenmüsli etc etc. The breakfast room faces directly onto the river Regnitz which is very picturesque. The staff are really friendly and helpful both with me and my teen children! It’s only a short walk to the centre of town, or along the river to the Old Town and Cathedral. The rooms were comfy and amazing value *****

An ok stay at Kongresshotel.

An ok stay at the Kongresshotel. We booked for 2 adults and 1 child but the extra bed hadn’t been installed and the double bed was two separate beds (this is apparently normal for this hotel).
They quickly installed the third bed after being made aware and everything was ok.

This was my second stay at the Welcome Kongresshotel Bamberg. Overall, it was a fantastic stay as always.
For travelers with a car or rental car, having a parking garage directly under the hotel is a huge benefit since parking can be hard to find in Bamberg. The hotel overall is modern and well furnished, has friendly and helpful staff, a great free breakfast buffet, and a bar/restaurant in the hotel for folks who are short on time to eat out in town. The hotel is walkable (20 minutes for most) to the Altstadt (old city) as well as the Innenstadt (city center) which is convenient for tourists. My room this time had a shower stall rather than bathtub which is convenient for travelers who may not be able to climb into/out of a tub due to mobility issues. The only downside for me was not being able to view local TV (Bayern 1 / 2 / 3) channels in the TV. Highly recommend this hotel!

I liked the staff upon check-in. Clerk was helpful and friendly.

Room size was one of the four suites at the hotel and was still a little on the small side. I understand the energy efficiency savings but don’t like that you have to use the keycard to plug in things to charge.

Bamburg delight.

This hotel is situated right on the river very close to the old town. The hotel has a walkway right outside the door, so is very convenient. The room had a wonderful view of trees and the river. The room itself was moderately sized with wonderful pillows on the beds. The hotel did not supply an iron and ironing board inside the rooms, but there was on available on the first floor near the elevator. The breakfast was excellent as was the breakfast room which overlooked the river.

Really good stay at the Welcome Knogresshotel Bamberg enroute to southern Bavaria. The hotel looks great on the banks of the river and is well located about a 10 minute walk from the main sights.
Welcome was really good with the staff friendly and helpful. Parking is directly under the hotel (you collect your ticket on entry then hand it over when booking out and pay the hotel rate) with an entrance direct to reception. We travelled with a dog and was good to see that in the room they put a food bowl (with a couple of treats), water bowl and dog blanket. A great touch.
The room was comfortable with decent beds and very clean. My only comment was it was very quiet yet they still put us in a room at the back with a view of roofs and nothing else. Worth asking for a room overlooking the river as the view is miles better!!! Mentioned this on my initial feedback and great to see they have promised a room at the front on our next stay.
Overall a very good place to stay, the bar looked great but was quiet so we wandered out. Looking forward to our next visit.

Beautiful Reunion

I was stationed in Bamberg 30years ago and was there for a reunion. The location is perfect for walking to nearby sites. The complementary breakfast was over the top! I nearly argued that it couldn't be free! My goodness, I guess I forgot how well Bavarian's treat their guest.

Spartan welcome

While the location was perfect and the staff friendly and helpful, the accommodation was spartan in the lack ok amenities. I asked for a shower cap and they do not provide them. The bed was hard and didn't have extra pillows I could have used to get comfortable. The room was spartan but the price was not

Very comfortable stay and great breakfast!

The hotel is about a 15 minute walk from the old town (Alstadt). Or you can take a bus (the bus stop if in front of the hotel). The breakfast was great. We only stayed one night, but it was enjoyable.

Great stay in Bamberg

The Welcome hotel was in a great location. Next to a walking path that is ~ 10 min to the main area of Bamberg. During the walk, you get to walk past a cool Concert Hall. Also, the walk is a perfect distance to walk off those German pork and Rauchbier calories.

The hotel was very pet friendly. After booking online, asked for a “dog-friendly” room…..next to an exit. On check-in, not only got the dog-friendly location, but had two bowls and a blanket waiting for her. A nice touch was the doggie snacks that were in one of the bowls. Also, the front desk were very helpful in picking out a restaurant and were attentive to any questions.

Finally, the free breakfast was out of this world. Being used to the USA continental-style free breakie, I was blown away by the spread.....loads of different styles of bread/coffee/ hot food (sausage/bacon/eggs/toast) cold cuts, fruits, great selection of cheese……. everything. Almost embarrassed not to pay for such a great spread……..almost.

The only negative (and a slight one) was shower water seemed to leak to the adjacent floor a little easy….even though there was a shower door. It wasn’t a big deal………just needed a couple extra towels to keep the floor dry. But overall a great stay at the hotel and won’t hesitate to stay at there on our next trip to beautiful Bamberg.

This hotel experience was all that was boasted about in the reviews. The location was perfect, the staff was friendly the rooms were clean, the breakfast was excellent. I would highly recommend it to family and friends. Also, it had a very nice conference space. This would be an ideal location to hold a national or international meeting.

Good location, but rooms need improvement

I stayed at the Welcome Congress Hotel in Bamberg after a conference to have some more time to enjoy the city. The location is very convenient, it is a <10 minute walk into the historic part of Bamberg. The hotel itself was quite nice and the staff very friendly, but I was quite disappointed by the condition and design of the rooms. There was mold in the corners of the shower, and it seemed that a large mirror had just been removed from the main wall of the room, with residual hooks still sticking out of the wall. The room also had a paucity of electrical outlets, none near the bed, which seems quite impractical for a business hotel. As common in many European hotels, the room also contained two 'twin' beds, which are only 80cm wide and thus quite small.

Very poor customer care. - avoid.

NB. This review refers to matters which are currently subject to a letter of complaint to Welcome Hotels head office.

Firstly, we were allocated a room adjacent to the wellness suite on 2nd floor (*251 for the benefit of future guests) where the stench of blocked drains emanating from the bathroom was disgusting. I was aware this issue had been raised before (online review) and mentioned it to the desk but they said nothing in excuse. We were moved to a room on 3rd floor on a very busy weekend. Cleaning staff had entered our room during breakfast (c.09.30) and would not leave when asked to do so on our return. I complained to the desk again and asked that the housekeeper be notified NOT to clean our room before e11am the following day. Imagine our shock when housekeeping burst into our room the following morning at 08.30 without knocking and when we were still asleep!

I raised the matter with the desk again and then with local management (NB. no on-site management due to being away at a conference) after an unsatisfactory response from the desk. I was told by the customer service manager at the sister hotel (Residenzschloss) that I should have put the 'do not disturb' sign on our door (despite having told the desk to instruct housekeeping to stay out of our room) and that 'because this is a business class hotel with guests leaving for work we start cleaning early...). but this is unacceptable as many guests such as ourselves were there on vacation.

Brilliant hotel with helpful staff

We stayed at the Kongresshotel in Bamberg while attending a wedding in the town. The staff could not have done more to help us. They were all so friendly and helpful. We had very early flight times and they were so accommodating with letting us into our room early so we could change, helping with taxi bookings etc. The hotel was really modern, nice and clean and had air-con in the room. The gym was not as big as the pictures suggested but it had a treadmill, which was all we were after.

Hospitable Hotel

We were met with warm and helpfulness by our check in staff. We were able to get our room, earlier in the day, after a long tiring train ride to Bamburg. Maps and directions to downtown were explained in detail. The room was comfortable and very clean. The hotel is situated on the river and is a short walk [about 15 minutes] to downtown. The walk along the river to downtown, is picturesque and pleasant. It is located in a quieter area, and far enough away from the crowds of tourists. We were surprised at the variety of choices and quality of food at breakfast... many kinds of breads and cheeses, and cold cuts, along with hot choices of eggs and sausages. This is not a \"new\" hotel, but it is comfortable and very clean...our priorities when traveling. We were very happy with our stay here.

excellent room with river view and good room facilities. Great breakfast included in room rate. Free wi-fi, reasonable price underground parking. Ten minute, enjoyable walk to old town centre. Only problem was the curious lift entrance from car park to hotel which would require you to do an outdoor detour when functions were underway. Would happily go back.

Good choice for seeing old Heidelburg

Very modern with lots of parking under hotel. Easy walking distance to the center of the Altstadt (old town) part of Heidelburg and easy to find your way back to the hotel. Very large and good buffet for breakfast. Beds were quite comfortable and air conditioning worked. Getting from the parking garage to lobby with the bags was wierd - elevator from garage came up in a room that looked like they used it for banquets, then had to find your way down a long hall to the lobby. Elevator to rooms was off of lobby. No wifi when we were there. I'd stay there again if I was visiting Heidelburg.

Good location but expensive

The location is good with river views and short walk into town. There are 2 restaurants and I used both. Dinner was not very good in either but breakfast was good. Booked a room for 2 adults but beds were 2 singles which were very narrow suitable fot a child in my view. There is no wi-fi in the hotel and this is not good for a business hotel because many people rely on a smartphone or iPad for collecting emails.

Best Breakfast ever! Seriously amazing. Fresh jams and juice. Fruit, veggies, lunch meat, bread, eggs, sausages, cheese, grilled veggies, yogurt, cereal.... Everything you can think of for FREE! Loved it. Hotel was nice and clean but the beds/pillows were horrible. Hotel was also quite a distance from the train station and city center. We took a bus there and cab back with luggage. The rest of the time we walked off our breakfast getting around.

excellent staff, shame about the internet!

staff were very helpful and friendly. Bamberg is a place with many hotels, but I selected this one as it had business facilities and 24 hour reception.
On the down side - my bathroom has an unpleasant smell that never went away in the 4 nights I was there; the internet that was\"free\" with my business room actually was limited by MB and it was annoying to be kicked off internet so that i could then pay additional fees...this is just silly and the fees were irritating.

Great business hotel but good for families too

Nice business hotel with spacious and comfortable rooms. Not so close to historic downtown (approx. 15 min walking) but very well positioned close to the river.
Nice break-fast, helpful staff. If traveling with family keep in mind this is a congress hotel so you might experience a fully booked hotel with business people attending a company meeting.
Overall this is a highly recommended hotel!

Wir waren zu Zweit, Fahrradurlaub. Wir könnten unsere Räder direkt am Eingang abstellen, die Räder waren unter Dach und man konnte diese auch gut absperren und fixieren. Auch für E Bikes gibt es einige Ladesäulen. Wir hatten ein gutes und sicheres Gefühl, wie unsere Fahrräder über Nacht geparkt waren. Das Hotel hat eine gute Lage, der Personal war freundlich und zuvorkommend. Das Frühstücksbuffet war sehr gut. Mehr kann ich nicht beurteilen, weil der Aufenthalt zu kurz war.
