I really enjoyed my overnight stay in this hotel. All of the rooms are identified by a colour (I was in the green room - an economy single), which was very comfortable & clean, with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The location is also very good - about a 20 min walk from the train station and 5 mins walk to the main area of the old town. An excellent choice for a solo traveller.

Bamberg is the epitome of everything Bavarian: half-timbered houses, medieval splendour and heavenly views. Due to its overwhelming beauty, it’s almost surreal to wander its cobbled streets and drink it all in.
Speaking of which, Bamberg has a surprising number of breweries and inns serving its signature Rauchbier. Most are dotted around the UNESCO World Heritage-listed, pedestrianised historic centre - once at the heart of the Holy Roman Empire. Emperor Henry II ordered construction of the 11th-century cathedral and is buried inside.
His empire’s prince-bishops had it good, and their former seats are scattered over the city. Their Old Palace courtyard has wooden balconies adorned with bright flowers. The New Residence is even grander, with opulent halls reflecting the rulers’ wealth. Michaelsberg Abbey – the bishops’ private monastery - is on one of Bamberg’s 7 hills, and on the highest is Altenburg Castle, another ruler’s abode.
The modern seat of power – the town hall – is the most incredible building of all. Spanning 2 bridges over the Regnitz River, it partly hangs above the fast-flowing water and is overlooked by the colourful Little Venice fishermen’s houses.
Booking.com’s Bamberg accommodation is as eclectic as the bishops’ residences, ranging from old town hotels to cheap apartments and guest houses near Maxplatz, home of the main Christmas market.
The Bamberg Symphony Orchestra is a top-class ensemble.
The Bamberg Symphony Orchestra is a top-class ensemble. See it if you can. Take the time to hike up to the Altenburg and then climb the tower for €1. It is well worth the effort for a great 360 degree view of bamberg and its seven hills. The Altstadt is also charming.

Bamberg is a nice compact town which can easily be walked...
Bamberg is a nice compact town which can easily be walked and all the people of Bamberg we encountered were friendly. It had been beautifully kept and so many interesting places to visit or just simply wander about the town and admire the town as a whole. We had an amazing lunch at Hotel Brudermühl just by chancing across it as we walked the town and the Glühwein was pretty good too.
Currently (Dec 2023) there is a lot of restoration and building works so a number of locations are not open or are partially open for visitors but there is still plenty to see and do. Domplatz with the Bamberg Cathedral and New Residence are definitely worth visiting - make sure you go into the rose garden for the view across Bamberg.
In warmer weather a walk up to St Michael’s should be done.
Best thing to do in Bamberg is to walk and just Criss-cross the streets and bridges so you can see the amazing Altes Rathaus in the middle of the river from all angles as well as all the wonderful little finds on your walk. Bamberg is also a little shopping-mecca so remember to put aside some euros to spend here.
Definitely allow 3 days for Bamberg if you want to see everything.

Bamberg was a great stop in between Berlin and Munich.
Bamberg was a great stop in between Berlin and Munich. The small-town vibes are great and the city is beautiful. There is a lot of shopping and food. The boat ride was enjoyable. This town is a perfect mix of enough to do, but smaller and easier to navigate than a big city.
We didn't particularly care for their 'Rauchbier' (smoked beer) although many like it. We had great street food (doener and bakery). There is also a good mix of bigger stores and cute small shops (Christmas stores, bookshops).

So much to see and do in such a relatively small space.
So much to see and do in such a relatively small space. So many little quaint corners to discover. So much history, so many good views. The people of Bamberg are really friendly and a wonderful laid-back atmosphere prevails, it's like all the visitors are happy. Sounds crazy but the air there is so fresh and clean in comparison to the Rhine-Main area where I live. The riverside has interesting cafes, bars, restos. The parks are lovely, the bus travel easy. I would avoid the RED BUS hop-on hop-off next time round. It's a bit of a rip-off. The Bamberg 3day ticket is a worthwhile investment.
It's such a different hotel. Very cutely done up. The room and bathrooms are huge with gorgeous decor. The best part however is the location. Easy quick walk to old town and the shopping street. An amazing cafe for breakfast at 2 minute walking distance and a pretty decent Indian restaurant nearby too. Very cheerful and warm staff. Would definitely recommend the hotel to anyone visiting Bamberg.
This was my favorite hotel so far in Germany. It was so well situated to see all the most amazing sites, so much attention was paid to details like interesting lamps and lighting, snacks were provided free of charge, bottles if water, coffee machine that made delicious coffee and herbal tea. The room was spacious and clean and quiet. Will definitely go back when in Bamberg.
Absolutely fantastic hotel with a great location. The rooms were incredible! Perfect blend of 1400s construction and modern amenities. Beautiful exposed beams and freshly remodeled bathrooms really set this hotel apart. The staff was great, everything was clean, I'm seriously beyond impressed with this property. Best part? Under 200€ for 2 nights.
Everything was awesome! No, it was not a super ritzy uber expensive and posh hotel...but it was perfectly decorated, located, and staffed. We were looking to hit every Christmas Market we could, and this was a great location for Bamberg. And for the food and beers! Also, the staff catered to our English only skills!
I loved the location of the hotel. It was central to all the places we wanted to see in Bamberg and I loved that it was connected to the Casa Italia restaurant. Staff was very nice and accommodating, and food was superb! The room itself was clean, modern, and a great place to rest.
Bamberg is absolutely beautiful, hotel in quiet location, nice 10 minute walk into Bamberg, uphill walk back or there is a bus stop nearby that we used when carrying luggage. Friendly helpful staff, traditional hotel, would recommend, we didn’t have breakfast.
The location was excellent and we could easily reach all parts of Bamberg on foot. The price was reasonable and we were happy to park in the basement. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I enjoyed Bamberg's unique local beer at the hotel.
This is a beautiful little jewel sitting in the best place for touring. The staff sets this hotel apart from all others. The front desk manager was warm, efficient, attentive. Breakfast was lovely. accommodations were comfortable and spotless.
Hotel is very good located, close to Main Railway Station and just 20 minutes walk from old Town.
Big plus for parking with a price just 8 euros per night. We could stay after check out till the afternoon. Good hotel for 1-2 nights.
The hotel is very clean, the rooms are comfortable and clean.
You can walk to everything from this hotel.
Great location!
