We stayed for only one night, while we were passing through to Munich. It was very walkable and the rooms were lovely. I had a lovely brunch at Cafe Chloe and a quick walk over to the outdoor market.

This was a wonderful place to stay! The staff were all welcoming, attentive, and helpful. The hotel is a short walk from the main train station, and in a great location to explore the beautiful city. Great breakfast in the morning, nice terrace for drinks in the evening. Will happily return for another visit! Danke schön!

Wine festival

Lovely hotel, nice breakfast. Small but comfortable rooms. Disappointed that they don’t have the parking that they advertise at least not for us. We had to pay to park down the street. There was a wine festival in town that was recommended by Toby at the front desk which was a great recommendation. He was especially helpful and considerate in answering our questions. The hotel is close to the old town just a short walk.
