Great little hotel, close to the christmas market. Parking was a little awkward, but the parkhaus was very cool. We took a few minutes to drop off luggage at the front of the hotel then i went to park.

Very pleased

This hotel was amazing located right in old town and a short walk to everything. The room was spacious and clean. The breakfast had the perfect variety. The best thing about Hotel Gideon is the staff. They went above and beyond and did the best they could with any of my requests. I highly recommend you stay at this property.

Excellent location, honest employees

A lost wallet was found by hotel staff and I was notified in time to retrieve it before I had to depart. Cash and cards were all accounted for; kudos to the staff for their integrity! The rooms a bit basic but were a good value for the affordable rates. The location is a good compromise between the train station and the old city attractions, we enjoyed the beautiful city.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Nice stay of 3 nights with an initial glitch -upon arrival my room was only half -cleaned, with fresh (i hope) sheets on one mattress, no sheets on the other, and a used plastic cup in the bathroom. The garbage had been emptied and towels replaced so i guess the housekeeper had run out before finishing? Minimal amenities--shower gel but no shampoo, no English on TV. Safe and convenient location, kind staff, and very quiet room made for a restful sleep.
