"I always love Taste in Kulmbach. Outstanding, especially as they always give me a FAN so I can sleep...since there is no AC. Sure, it's cool enough for most, but a fan helps me. The breakfast, which is included, is OUTSTANDING!"

Limehome Bayreuth Spitalgasse

8/10 Good
"It's a lovely clean and bright studio in the heart of Bayreuth, a 15 minute walk from the train station and less than a minute from the colourful and lively Maximilianstraße. If you're prepared to self-cater (and the local supermarkets are excellent), then it's a bargain. What stops it from my giving 5 stars? Not much. The apartment can get very hot, although a fan is provided. A separate receptacle for recycling would be welcome, as would a dustpan and brush for daily cleaning and instructions for how to use the hob cooker. Hghly recommended."
