"Very nice boutique hotel on the edge of the historic centre of Nuremberg. You have to enter through the restaurant. Just be prepared to carry your luggage up the stairs since there is no elevator. Luckily, I was only on the second floor (American third floor) so I only had to carry it up two flights of stairs."
