Central Location, Quiet Stay

friendly staffgood locationnoisy loading bay
I found reception staff friendly. They managed our late check in well. The hotel's location felt perfect. Many sightseeing places were within walking distance, also the area stayed peaceful.
My room was above a loading bay, very noisy. This happened from very early, for both mornings of my stay. This needs fixing.

The hotel sits in a lovely courtyard. It is off the main road, very central to everything. Alexander Platz and Christmas markets are within a five minute walk. A wide number of public transport stops are super close.

Acceptable stay experience

great locationhelpful staffnoisy areapoor wifi
The hotel had a very good location near Museum Island. An underground station was also quite close to the hotel. The staff was friendly and also helpful.
The room overlooked a loading bay. This area was very noisy, especially early in the mornings (i stayed for several days). The wifi did not work properly, i did not have phone signal either.
