The staff went above and beyond for us during our stay! The hotel is incredibly historic and charming. I highly recommend adding the breakfast to your stay. Jena is an absolute gem of a city and we would love to stay here again!

Positives: Clean room, good breakfast, nice location downtown. I like the black bear in the lobby. Negatives: The wifi was so weak that it would not stay connected to either my phone or my computer. When I said something to the desk clerk, she offered a lame excuse - she said that some laptops just don't connect very well, but phones do connect well. That was wrong, neither device would connect. When I checked out, I mentioned it to a different clerk, who apologized. The water in the shower kept cycling between too cold and too hot.

Our room smelled: we kept the windows open for the first two days and nights. Another guest on the same floor said the same thing.Maybe it had to do with the renovation of this third/attic floor?

Zimmer Einrichtung in die Jahre gekommen

Gute Lage nah zum Zentrum, Restaurants und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Hotel hat eine fast 500 jährige Geschichte und historisches Flair. Zimmer müssten trotzdem mal ener Renovierung unterzogen werden. Interieur und Badeinrichtung schon ziemlich abgenutzt. Man muss die kompletten Übernachtungskosten direkt im Voraus beim Check in bezahlen.Parkgebühr beträgt 10 Euro pro Tag. Im Hotelrestaurant bekommt man gutes traditionelles Essen. Allerdings war es jetzt in der Vorweihnachtszeit immer sehr voll und das Servicepersonal völlig unterbesetzt.Lange Wartezeiten mussten in Kauf genommen werden.

Splendido e storico

Bellissimo e pulitissimo, con secoli di storia alle spalle ma in eccellenti condizioni. Nulla da eccepire, salvo forse la colazione un po’ troppo cara ma ormai in Germania è così.
