The room was ok; no refrigerator; conventional, old-fashioned key.
The biggest issue was Internet access (WLAN). There were no instructions in the room, other than a scan, which does NOT work for laptops (at least not mine)! I had to call; in the end someone brought a paper copy of PASSWORD ETC. to the room.

The location is just perfect!

The location was perfect as this hotel is literally in the heart of the city and no far from public transportation, landmarks, restaurants and shops. The room has air condition so hot summer temperatures were not an issue. Breakfast was not included but it was not really needed because there many great places to eat around the hotel.

This hotel is very close to the downtown/shopping area. There is a small park across the street. Everything is withing walking distance.
The bathroom was small but clean and the breakfast was adequate with very good coffee. The beds seemed to have newer mattresses and were comfortable.
We tried to sleep with the window open but the street noise was loud and someone was smoking just below us.
If you have large luggage you will need to carry them up a few stairs into the main lobby.
Overall a good one night stay.

Location was my favorite part about this hotel. In the center of Esslingen, easy walk anywhere. Nearby restaurants are good and stay open late. The staff was very polite and helped me with my German when I asked for words/advice. The beds we're a little hard, and the AC was a little noisy, but I still loved the hotel and will come here again if I get the chance.

Business stay was ok

Wifi was out one night and advertised air conditioning but did not work. I asked front desk and they said they could operate from their office but never did. Also phone did not work and asked for extra hangers but never brought them. Breakfast was really very good and location in center of Esslingen and by train station was perfect.

Ich habe eigentlich rundum nur positive Eindrücke in Verbindung mit dieser Unterkunft. Sie liegt sehr zentral. Bahnhof, Parkhäuser, Einkaufszeile usw. liegen alle in unmittelbarer Nähe. Wer die engen Verhältnisse alter schwäbischer Ortschaften mag, wird sich hier wohlfühlen. Das Hotel hat einen eigenen Parkplatz und einen Personenaufzug. Es ist sauber und das Personal ist professionell und schwäbisch zurückhaltend freundlich. Das Frühstück war für meine Bedürfnisse OK.
