Erfurt hotels

Pros: The hotel is in an old building, beautifully renovated. We had a spacious room overlooking the Domplatz, double glazed openable windows and air-conditioning (that we did not need). The bed was good. The shower was good in a small bathroom partitioned off the room. Lighting and safe are adequate. There were plenty of powerpoints and Wifi was good. The breakfasts were really good, with eggs to order. It is a family-run hotel with very friendly staff. The building is very secure with card-key entry at all times.

Cons: There was a step down into our room right at the door that took some time to get used to. "Mind the step" was signposted in German ("vorsicht stufe"). Perhaps the same information in English at eye level would be beneficial!

Pros: The staff was absolutely top notch, professional, friendly, helpful and welcoming. The room was perfect - clean, quiet, beautifully furnished, bed and bedding was cozy, bathroom was spacious with roomy shower and great water pressure. Onsite parking was convenient. Location was within easy walking distance to everything. Breakfast had a nice variety and the offering of fresh cooked eggs made to order was a nice bonus. I will definitely stay here again!

Cons: Nothing, everything was absolutely perfect.

Pros: Amazing little hotel. Extraordinary friendly staff. I never saw such a breakfast buffet, even not in five or higher star hotels. For international guests: it is a typical German breakfast, so do not expect rice, noodles or fatty sausages.

Cons: We could stay only one night.

Pros: Great breakfast, friendly staff, beautiful room.

Pros: Very nice staff and owners. Everything about the place was nice - bright, attractive, clean. Easy to get to and from the hauptbahnhof (train station) on a tram. It was close to all of the attractions.

Pros: Great little hotel for a one night stay. Clean and lovely staff with well keep gardens.

Cons: Location was not walking distance to town for oldies. Bottom of shower really slippery and lack of eating restaurants near by

Pros: As described in a nice little village. Clean rooms and great staff. They even added multiplugs on each side of the bed for charging mobile phones etc. which is a nice touch.

Cons: Shower head was a bit funky and kept slipping down, but really that was the only issue and it was pretty minor.

Pros: Rhodaer Grundi is an excellent hotel with a very professional and efficient staff. We had a warm welcome from Martin who gave us a lot of touristic information about the city center. He did his best in order to give us a wonderful stay. The room was clean and confortable. The breakfast was very delicious, a good value for money.

Pros: Lovely friendly family run restaurant and b& b....Excellent food served between 12-2 then again at 5-6 pm. Bus service into Erfurt right outside. Breakfast was lovely and room very comfortable. Erfurt is a well worth visiting.

Pros: Warm welcome. Nice little village close to Erfurt. Walking distance + good bus connections.

Pros: Friendly and smilely.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The couple who run the hotel were fantastic. The breakfast was great too. The apartment suite that we rented was huge, and the bathroom was very nice. Plenty of parking.

Cons: Furniture wasn’t particularly comfortable. No wi-fi.

Pros: A Medieval monastery - including a cloister and a church - is the stunning location of this amazing “hotel”; very clean room; good breakfast.

Cons: A bit spartan and tiny room, as predictable given the setting; my room was in on the second floor of an annex where there is no elevator, so I wouldn’t recommend it for people with big luggage, but in the main building there is a lift.

Cons: The attitude which I was being severed didnt match with a three-star hostel/ monastery. Firstly, i must admitted that I had an early train  (08:30) on the day I leave the hostel and I didnt consult with the receptionist when I checked in on how I should do if I want to return the room key earlier than the normal working hour. There is neither no clear signage or dropbox for returning the room key. I went to the reception at 07:55, which is 5 mins earlier than the normal working hour. I politely knocked the door. The receptionist came front to the door, and knocked the glass which showed the working time of the reception. After that she opened the door, and at the  same time showing her watch, pointing out that it still had few mins until the normal working time. I apologized (Yes, I have to apologize for leaving earlier than your normal working time. ) and explained that I had an early train. Then the second question asked by the receptionist was even rude and odd than any: 'Have you paid?' I deeply think it was such a rude and unpolite question asking to your guest. I booked the room through traveling agency website, and I assumed that the transaction will be done automatically, even if any two-star hostel, the transaction was to be made while check-in. I feel so odd and dissatisfied for being served like this in a three-star-monastery. For sure I am not requesting a 5-star hotel service. But I really dont understand why I have to apologize for booking an early train. Is this my fault for doing so? And I have no way to know your working time through traveling agency website and in your website (eng. version). I know the receptionist did nothing wrong on working on time. But please deeply consider whether to stay in this monastery or not if you have to leave on early morning (or check in late) . I have never met such attitude and problems when I stay in any youth hostel, but in a said 'evangelical monastery'.

Pros: Excellent location near centre of Erfurt. It's a historic building, which is very interesting, but the rooms are basic and the beds are not very comfortable. There is no way to sit up and read, for example. The breakfast was excellent, with lots of hot and cold food and drinks.

Pros: very nice hospitality in a historical environment

Pros: Well, this a real gem. If you want to get close to the spirit of Luther, this is the place! Set in picturesque Erfurt, it offers simple but more than adequate accommodation (though you do have to have a shared bathroom, at least I did). The historic monastery is wonderful, and you can relax here, pray, or find calm for meditation. Breakfast was excellent - pancakes!!!! What more can I say.

Cons: Nothing really, though I am not too keen on shared bathrooms. The monastery is a good 20 minute walk from the station, but then most of Erfurt's hotels are anyway, and the setting here is so beautiful. Taxi is not that expensive and there are buses.

Pros: Over the average spacious lobby, restaurant and the room, give thru rest and relax especially during intensive business travel. Apart of the space excellent cuisine, friendly and professional staff together with simple elegance decoration emphasize the feeling. In spite of the location out of the center, intentionally have chosen this hotel for second time, and plan to stay next time visiting Erfurt.

Cons: In such hotel extremely slow internet (or option for up grade for 12 euro) is a faux pas. Hope the management would reconsider this issue.

Pros: very friendly and helpful staff, we had a pleasant stay. Big and quiet rooms. lovely hotel!

Cons: make only a reservation through booking.com if you pay with credit card, because you still have to pay at the front desk..so payment in front through booking.com does not make a difference ..just make the reservation.

Pros: The man during check in was every nice, explain me everything about city and possibilities

Cons: Personal during check out was terrible

Pros: Good breakfast on the terrace, excellent free tram connection to all the sights, very attentive room service staff.

Pros: Good location , great staff and I liked the way how they were prepared to accommodate guests with pets.

Pros: Location was perfect.Could walk all around the town.Super , lovely town.Staff was Friendly.

Cons: Parking, was not good.to few places.Hotel has a garage .Which is hard to find as, you have to go through a one way system to get to it.Extremly small street, could not run into the garage.Garage door was too small and tight.Had to reverse back and forth, and get out of the street and park somewhere else.We had a Q5.Would not drive down and try and get into the garage with anything bigger than a Golf.Not with the risk of damaging the car.This info should have been in the Internet, so you knew before hand. Breakfast was 18 Euro extr per person.Was not with that.The choice want there, very small room.Amd for 72 euros you could have eaten better in a nice cafe.More value for money

Pros: Nice, clean accommodations well located in the old town, a short walk from the train station. Comfortable room and bedding. Staff were friendly.

Cons: Since it is more of a business-hotel style accommodation, there wasn't a lot of personality or charm to the place, despite it being in a historic building.

Pros: Excellent location, close to translation, city center.

Cons: No bath, only shower

Pros: Room was nice and spatious.

Cons: The bedsheets smell really bad, like old People.

Pros: Marvelous breakfast. Cody lobby and very cosy rooms

Pros: spacious room and big bathroom. quiet surroundings. simple breakfast

Cons: no wifi, reception provided LAN cable but that doesnt fit on macbook air. no fresh fruit or vegetables at breakfast

Pros: A clean and nice hotel. Our room in big enough. It is easy for us to take several big suitcases into room through elevator, although the elevator provides limited space. The property has a private parking area but limited quantity of parking lot is an issue when the hotel is booked fully. There is a nice supermarket nearby. That is good for preparing something for coming long-distance driving. Very polite staff in front desk. We are appreciated of her help and arrangement.

Cons: Limited on-site parking area.

Pros: Relatively close to downtown, we had bikes: 4 minutes

Pros: Peaceful but convenient location. Bright and clean. Nice outdoor sitting area

Pros: Location, friendly staff and helpful staff, and clean room

Cons: Nil

Pros: Public transport closeby

Pros: sparkling clean

Cons: a bit cold in the rooms, even after turning up the heater. might be just my perception though.

Pros: Nice location and very clean and organized. Staff very friendly

Cons: WiFi was a write off. Good wireless signal but internet connection and speed non functional.

Pros: Everything was excellent apart from the wifi not working. Pleasant staff, convenient quiet location, attractive city.

Pros: The hotel and room were clean. Everything worked in the room. Location was perfect! My room had view of the bridge and a lovely beer garten

Cons: The staff was professional but could have been a little friendlier

Pros: Location was excellent. Beds were very comfortable. Our room overlooking the carpark was very quiet.

Cons: Flickering reading light in our room, no tea/coffee making facilities in room (this is a 4 star hotel), luggage rack in double room holds one suitcase only, which is not unusual but pretty silly.

Pros: Staff were.very friendly and helpful.Breakfasts were very enjoyable as was the meal we had in the restaurant....Zum Alten Schwan.

Cons: Parking was expensive.

Pros: Location and well appointed

Cons: Staff were not overly friendly or helpful.

Pros: The room on Krämerbrücke is not attached to the main hotel, but rather is on the bridge itself in a separate building. It was fantastic. I absolutely adored the room, and the view of Krämersbrücke was a huge bonus. It was quiet and comfortable, and while it was a bit on the small side, for one person traveling alone it was plenty spacious enough. I'd highly recommend it.

Pros: Location was ideal: close to the beautiful "Dom" -area, the city easily reachable by foot, and also with a tram stop a mere hundred meters or so away. The booking was spontaneous, but everything was arranged very well and the communication was excellent. The breakfast served its purpose. The room was rather plain, but clean and did its job!

Cons: The sound insulation of the door was not the best, one could hear quite clearly what was happening or being said in the corridor. The bed was a bit weirdly "blocking" most of the room (could be just our room though), and was a bit too soft for our taste.

Pros: the location, the breakfast and the room was small but comfortable

Cons: no internet in the room

Pros: Very close to the city centre. Good value. Nice clean and quiet room. Excellent breakfast.

Pros: Perfect location, cosy, simple but good quality breakfast, friendly but unobtrusive staff.

Cons: Shampoo/shower gel was provided only for one use. There was not strong, but noticeable unpleasant smell in the shower.

Pros: Exclusive breakfast, fantastic location, within walking distance to the city. Spacious rooms, although the interior was antiquated. Great for vacationers, but not ideal for business travelers.

Cons: Although the breakfast was great, the times were completely inflexible (8-10 weekdays and beginning at 8.30 on weekends and holidays). No iron or ironing facilities available. No extra accommodations for travelers needs. Take it or leave it mentality.

Pros: The hotel was exceptionally clean and well-appointed. The host was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was brilliant. Well-located a pleasant 10 minute walk from the centre. Tram out the front; easy car-parking.

Pros: delicious breakfast and wonderfull boss

Cons: nothing

Pros: We very much liked the comfortable seating area in our room.

Cons: We would have appreciated coffee/tea making facilities in our room or in the communal area outside.

Pros: Lots of space, huge bath, nice to have fresh air from a private open window. Welcoming host, pension located in a lovely neighbourhood just a few mins walk from the train station and alstadt.

Cons: The pillows were so squishy there was hardly any support, and there was no aircon or fan for cooling. It was a little difficult when traveling by train to fit in with very narrow check in and check out times.

Pros: Charming staff. Excellent breakfast. Everything spotlessly clean. Very clear and friendly communication with the property about my late arrival. Good tram connection to the city.

Cons: Note that this property is not especially close to the centre of Erfurt, but it is close to the Landtag. So for trips for political purposes it is well suited. Also the decor in the rooms is... slightly eccentric!
