Hotels near Ehrtal Obelisk, Erfurt

Modern design hotel near Erfurt main train station, and a short walk to old city center. Standard double room was simple but comfortable, very clean, with good beds and bathroom. Nice staff, but check-in process seemed a little slow - we had to queue up for some minutes despite there were not so many guests awaiting check-in. Breakfast was good (buffet) but a little crowded .

Drei Tage waren wir im Hotel Weißer Schwan. Zimmer waren sauber, Betten gut. Auf Nachfage bekamen ein zusätzliches Kissen. Die Dame an der Rezeption war sehr freundlich. Minuspunkte: Wenn man nach einem langen Tag ins Hotel kam, bekam man leider nichts mehr zu trinken. Und das wäre so schön gewesen auf der schönen Terrasse! Das Restaurant ist wohl dauerhaft geschlossen, das sollte auf der Homepage kommuniziert werden. DAS Frühstück war ausreichend. Aber die kleine Wurstplatte mit in kleine Stückchen geschnittenem Schinken oder Wurst war unappetitlich und ziemlich dürftig. Wenn man um etwas Nachschlag z.B. von Salamiwurst (4 kl. Minischeibchen lagen auf der Platte!!) bat, wurde man gefragt, wieviel man haben wollte und es wurde auf einem Tellerchen gebracht. Vielleicht waren wir um 9 h die letzten Frühstücksgäste, aber man kann schon eine frische Wurstplatte und auch ungefragt Nachschlag erwarten. Auch nach Toastscheiben musste ich zweimal fragen. davon wurden dann auch 2 Stk. gebracht. Schade. Insgesamt finde ich das Preisleistungsverhältnis schlecht. In einem Hotel erwartet man Rundumservice. Zumindest eine Bar für abendliche Getränke. Der Titel Hotel Garni oder Pension wäre für dieses Haus treffender.

I stayed at the Labyrinth Hostel for four nights and wish I could have stayed longer! I felt very much at home there and especially welcome thanks to the friendly staff. I was in an eight-bed dorm with one to two other people so enjoyed generous amounts of space. For me the bed was comfortable and I slept well with no disturbances. The common areas were great for chilling out and chatting with other guests (both outside in the yard, and inside in the kitchen and dining area). Good selection of books in the book exchange. Kitchen was fine for preparing simple meals. Location of hostel great for seeing the sights, right by the historic centre of town. You can't park directly by the hostel but there is plenty of parking just a few minutes walk away. As for Weimar, definitely a great place to visit - important historically and especially if you are interested in Goethe and Schiller! Also liked Erfurt and especially Jena - nice towns in very attractive surroundings.

Location, lovely restaurant and great staff I booked because it’s right opposite the train station ….. but this hotel is so much more. Often ‘right opposite the train station’ means you are sacrificing something in terms of appearance and slight seediness for the convenience - but not here ! It’s a lovely old hotel (with a nice history), restored several times over the years, with a particularly impressive glass-surrounded restaurant for all meals. Location - as well as being on a pretty square right in front of the train station it’s less than 10 minutes’ easy straight line walk from the museums and the historic old town. There are plenty of nicely located hotels in the centre too by the way - just not as good for train access. The hotel restaurant is a real delight. Go for the breakfast buffet with some of the best prepared hotel bacon I have ever come across - crispy, fat-free and warm - plus all the usual egg, cereal, fruit salad and bread options. Standard coffee good German filter not espresso (though that’s available at the bar); orange juice average. Supper was freshly cooked smallish choice (these do go hand in hand, of course) - have a look at the menu in advance and if there’s something you like the look of eat here, quality is excellent. Staff very friendly; rooms moderate size, very clean, toiletries provided (shower gel and shampoo, no lotion or conditioner). Large non-leaky showers. You can claim a free snack if you forego your room servicing (!) ….. Rooms are non-smoking but they provide a smokers’ lounge for *******. To be recommended.

Beautifully located, close to the center (20 minutes walk). Comfortable, large building, parking. Large, comfortable rooms equipped with water heater! Large, clean bathroom . Very comfortable, large bed. Very diverse breakfast buffet and delicious coffee (very important for us). Nice service in reception and restaurant. I recommend!

We spent 3 nights in the hotel at the castle park and were very satisfied with the entire hotel offer of this owner-led business. Breakfast and dinner were good to very good, the service very friendly and professional. It is also important to highlight the good location with short paths to the attractions and the old town.
