Taste Hotel Kulmbach

8/10 Good

"Clean spacious room. OK breakfast, and very friendly and helpful staff."

Holiday Inn - the niu, Hop Forchheim by IHG

8/10 Good

"Nice staff and clean comfortable bed. My wife loved the decor. The issues I have are lack of onsite parking and if booking through Expedia, you don’t get points."

Quietly situated vacation home with sauna at the entrance to Franconian Switzerland.

Apart Hotel FirstBoarding Bayreuth

10/10 Excellent

"Great Location, friendly service, clean and comfortable."

Limehome Bayreuth Spitalgasse

8/10 Good

"It's a lovely clean and bright studio in the heart of Bayreuth, a 15 minute walk from the train station and less than a minute from the colourful and lively Maximilianstraße. If you're prepared to self-cater (and the local supermarkets are excellent), then it's a bargain. What stops it from my giving 5 stars? Not much. The apartment can get very hot, although a fan is provided. A separate receptacle for recycling would be welcome, as would a dustpan and brush for daily cleaning and instructions for how to use the hob cooker. Hghly recommended."

ibis Styles Bayreuth

"Great stay. Good breakfast and good room. 15 mins. walk to the Wagner Festival."
