Amalienhof Hotel Weimar

My stay at Amalienhof Hotel Weimar was very comfortable. There was an English-speaking receptionist most of the time at the front desk. (That I learned to be quite unusual in smaller towns in Germany.) The bed was a bit too short for me, and I am only 175cm. The room was otherwise quite comfortable, but the room didn't have a fridge. Very close (mostly 5 minutes walk) to tourist sites such as Goethes Wohnhaus, Schillers Wohnhaus, Liszthaus, and the cemetery. Free secure wi-fi, and they even let me use it hours after I checked out from the hotel!

This is my 4th time at this hotel and I plan on staying her again in the future. It has a great location within easy walking distance of shops, restaurants, cafes and historical sights. the rates are very reasonable and include breakfast, free Internet and parking.

The hotel has real old-world charm, the hallways full of beautiful furnishings reflecting the strong literary history of the city. The hotel staff, especially at reception, was exceptional -- seemed genuinely pleased to welcome guests and offer assistance. The room was spacious, nicely furnished, though the street noise left a bit to be desired. Steps from the most famous tourist sites in the town centre. The buffet breakfast was very good, and extra coffee was cheerfully granted. The free, ground-level parking behind the hotel with rear access was convenient. The wireless apparatus must be fetched from the front desk and involves a long cumbersome cord, and the clip on the connector which secures it to the computer was broken. It would be tremendously helpful to give directions to the parking area on the website, or tell car drivers where they can park while they check in. Quibbles aside, this is excellent value.
