Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel offers spacious and clean rooms, perfect for working on a computer but be mindful of slight sulfur smell near baths that fades quickly. The service is accommodating, with a historic touch even at odd hours. The location is prime for exploring Wiesbaden, though some may prefer a more traditional hotel setting. The dining experience is ideal for a quick bite. Overall, a good value for money option.
The hotel has its perks like having its own Nespresso machine in the room, but the mixed windows and kitchen odors facing the backyard can be a bit bothersome. The service is friendly but may require patience due to some renovation inconveniences. The best part is the excellent location that enhances the overall stay, despite some attempts at modernization that affected the traditional charm. Dining was good, but slightly pricey, with a nice setting both indoors and outdoors. It offers a pleasant atmosphere, even though the value for money might not be the best.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were nice and spacious, but the setup with two different windows causing uneven light was a bit annoying. The service was friendly overall, but there was a bit of a commotion during breakfast. The location was great, close to the opera house and the pedestrian zone. Dining was enjoyable, with a good variety of food, and the facilities were well-equipped.

My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The room was clean and spacious, and the bed was really comfortable. However, I found the room a little small for the price. The service was top-notch, especially thanks to Miss Madleane at the reception who was welcoming and friendly. The location was excellent for exploring the town, close to restaurants and shops. The dining experience was enjoyable, although the price seemed a bit high. The facilities were well-maintained, and I particularly liked the pool and sauna.
The hotel is in a perfect location for a nice day or evening walk, the rooms are spacious and calm, but some window configurations can be bothersome with light. The service is professional and friendly, with good English skills. The dining experience offers a variety of dishes but could improve on the hours. The location is ideal, close to the city center and Christmas Market.
