    Hotel was ideal, excellent services, and it had perfect location by a Spanish tapas restaurant around the corner. Location: the venue was just off train station as well as cafes and restaurants. The place was close to Shanaz, where you can have dinner.

    We had a wonderful stay at Roter Ochsen. the location is ideal, just a short walk from the train station and close to cafes, restaurants, and tourist attractions. Our room was spacious and the beds were comfortable. the breakfast room opens to a lovely courtyard, and the breakfast itself was delicious and plentiful. the reception staff was very accommodating, even going out of their way to assist us when we had a special check-in situation on a Sunday afternoon. we were impressed by the hotel and would definitely stay here again. Cons: Nothing not to love! 😊.

    The hotel's location was perfect for exploring the nearby attractions, with the old town just across the river and the railway station a short walk away. the room was surprisingly spacious and comfortable, with quality mattresses and fresh linens. the breakfast was delicious and varied, with fresh bread and plenty of options to choose from. the staff provided excellent service and were very accommodating.

    The room had some low ceilings which might be an issue for some taller guests.

    We stayed at the Roter Ochsen for a few nights and had a fantastic experience. The room was spacious, clean, and well-furnished. The breakfast was excellent, with a wide variety of delicious options. The staff was friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We were also impressed with the complimentary coffee machine available all day. The location was convenient, with easy access to everything we wanted to see in the area. Despite a small issue with the bed in our junior suite, we had a great time and would definitely stay here again. I highly recommend this hotel.

    Celebrating New Year's Eve at this hotel was amazing! the breakfast buffet was fantastic, and we loved the historic feel of the building. the location was perfect with plenty of nearby cafes and shops, and we felt safe walking around.

    The street noise was a bit of a nuisance in our room, but that's to be expected in a central location.

    The breakfast was nice and there were several options to choose from. The location was also convenient - close to many shops and restaurants. Another plus was the free Wi-Fi, which was a nice touch.

    The room was quite noisy and I could hear everything from the street outside. the bathroom was not very clean and there were some hairs in the shower.
