Prize by Radisson, Erfurt City
I would give this a four out of five. Great location! Great price and great breakfast. I highly recommend. Just doesn't get five stars since the rooms are tiny.

Hotel Alma Am Anger
A fabulous gem of a hotel with very helpful staff. Beautiful rooms, extremely comfy beds, nothing too much trouble (I ordered a kettle to make tea). Right in the centre of the old town - perfect location. Gardens within the court yard a delight. (NB Expedia - there isn't a swimming pool!)
