Comfortable Stay
Checking was efficient, even with social distancing in place. We stayed in a comfort room, which was well equipped, &well kept. The balcony was roomy enough to sit out on , it overlooks the courtyard when there are some of the restaurants tables, and the back gardens of other blocks in the square. Decent sized mugs for making a cup of tea (not little espresso cups), only downside is they only provided coffee creamer not milk. There is a convenience shop around the corner and the room does have a fridge -so one carton was adequate for our stay. It situated in a quiet residential area, so not much nearby , but the tram line is only a block away, and they provide a pass for public transport that lasts for the duration of your stay. So not much problem there. We will definitely return as its not to far from where some our family live, so making a convenient base to stay when we visit.

One night stay
The hotel is clean, the staff is polite, but the location was les desirable. Parking was hard to find unless you paid them €9 per night and there wasn’t much for food in the area.

Disappointing
I stayed for four nights and got, booked a double room, got a single. Got a room right next to the elevator, which is really noisy. Also no air conditioning. Room was right above the street entrance, so noisy at times. All up I recommend to avoid such a room. Otherwise very clean and pretty place. You get a free bus/tram ticket which is very handy.

Good hotel but not central
This is s good normal hotel in a suburban / edge of town location. It's clean and well run, and accessible by train and tram but not walking distance to town centre or main areas of activity.

Great deal Overall, take a tAxi to the location then return to town via S-Bahn. The hotel gives free tickets and the station is right around the corner. No free coffee and BF is expensive.

Perfect hotel out of Leipzig
I had a conference at the Leipzig heart hospital so this hotel was southeast of the city and perfect for my needs.. I had a quiet room, breakfast and the fact the hotel has a restaurant was convenient for a busy business traveller. The hotel staff were courteous and knowledgable and the fact they give you a transport card that works on trams, buses and trains means it is very easy. Having a small gym helps beat the bulge and refreshes the body. Only small minus is that the gym needs towels and water. Small criticisms for an excellent stay

Very satisfied with service and facilities
My family stayed in this hotel over two nights and the service was excellent, both in terms of the reception staff and the waitress service at breakfast was faultless. We were well impressed with the service and also the facilities for our short stay. A most comfortable choice.

Lovely friendly hotel
We were delighted with this hotel, and if we were ever in Leipzig again we would return. We would also recommend it. It was outstanding value for money. The staff were friendly and efficient and so helpful. As soon as we reported a small problem it was attended to immediately. Second to none!

not german talking? Stay out of Germany!
The hotel itself is stunning ... comfortable atmosphere, clean, new and nice. But then it comes to service and it is in itself good! IF I UNDERSTAND GERMAN ... I must say I am shocked and get a very uncomfortable feeling when the staff don`t want to talk since I only speak English. Also Tv in the room is a thing... I wanted to throw it out the window ... 20 channels but non with English ... So basically happy, but incredibly disappointing, despite how nice it was there. Hotellet i seg selv er strålende... behagelig atmosfære, bra stemning, rent nytt og fint. men så kommer man till service og den er i og for seg strålende! OM JEG FORSTÅR TYSK... Jeg må si jeg blir sjokkert og får en meget ubehagelig følelse når betjening ikke VIL prate da jeg kun snakker engelsk til dem. Tv på rommet er annnen ting.. hadde lyst å kaste den ut av vinduet... 20 kanaler men ikke EN med engelsk... så i bunn og grunn fornøyd men utrolig skuffende tross hvor fint det var der.

Good value for money, take a fan in summer though!
Hotel in residential location. The room was small, but clean with comfortable beds. The fridge was useful for cold drinks. We didn't eat breakfast at the hotel it was cheaper to go into the city. The free tram travel was very useful. Tram times were very frequent and quickly took us into the city. The main problem was the lack of air conditioning in the hotel. We thought in the absence of air conditioning the hotel could have provided fans, which they didn't. We asked, but were told they didn't have any. It was very uncomfortable as the outside temperature was high 30c's. I would expect a 4 star hotel to have air con. Parking was no problem on the street outside. Didn't need to use hotel garage.

put of mainstream, but good and comfortable
Hotel is some distance from the city center, but they provide free tram tickets to downtown, about a 15 min ride. The trams are frequent and comfortable, so the distance was not a problem. We found the staff friendly, helpful and accomodating.
