"The rooms provided sufficient space for comfortable movement as well as luggage. They’re onsite underground parking that was easy to access right into the lobby. The hotel provided a breakfast buffet with an excellent variety of cold and hot items which saved both time and money. Happy hour pricing in the lobby bar from 5 to 7 was also an additional amenity."

"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."
