Frommer's Review

This elegant hotel, a blend of old and new, is the best choice in town. It lies on a bank of the Regnitz, near the Altstadt and across from the Bamberg Symphony Orchestra building. The building, with its ocher-colored baroque walls, was constructed by the local archbishop in 1787 as a hospital. Today, the original hospital chapel continues to host local weddings. A less-glamorous modern annex is connected to the main building by a glass-sided breezeway. The annex contains perfectly functional rooms, but those in the main building are midsize to spacious and decorated in a classical elegant style with supremely comfortable furnishings. Bathrooms are a bit small but tidily kept, most often with a tub/shower. The hotel is popular with conventioneers, and is entirely nonsmoking.

Facilities:
2 restaurants; bar; gym; sauna; solarium; steam room; room service; laundry service; dry cleaning; 1 room for those w/limited mobility

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
