The hotel was in an excellent location and rooms very clean. My husband and myself were both ill during our stay and the staff were very accommodating and helpful. We weren’t able to enjoy the beautiful surroundings but if we are fortunate enough to return we would definitely stay here.

Perfect for our two night stay in Esslingen. Quaint and charming. Easy walking distance to the town square and the castle. Also walkable to the train station. Would highly recommend.

Ich habe eigentlich rundum nur positive Eindrücke in Verbindung mit dieser Unterkunft. Sie liegt sehr zentral. Bahnhof, Parkhäuser, Einkaufszeile usw. liegen alle in unmittelbarer Nähe. Wer die engen Verhältnisse alter schwäbischer Ortschaften mag, wird sich hier wohlfühlen. Das Hotel hat einen eigenen Parkplatz und einen Personenaufzug. Es ist sauber und das Personal ist professionell und schwäbisch zurückhaltend freundlich. Das Frühstück war für meine Bedürfnisse OK.

The hotel and staff did not disappoint! I went just for an overnight stay but enjoyed even this short time. The location is perfect with walking distance to the heart of the city. The room was clean with updated interior. Checkin/out was super easy and the staff very friendly. It's a 3x thumbs up from me :)

The location is just perfect!

The location was perfect as this hotel is literally in the heart of the city and no far from public transportation, landmarks, restaurants and shops. The room has air condition so hot summer temperatures were not an issue. Breakfast was not included but it was not really needed because there many great places to eat around the hotel.
