ibis Hotel Nürnberg Altstadt (Nuremberg, Germany)

Very few travellers fail to rave about the hotel's location within walking distance of "everything" in historic Nurenberg: restaurants, galleries, museums, the Christmas markets. Attractions beyond or at the outer bounds of walking distance are easily reached by bus, tram, or train, as the Nuremberg Central Station is only a few steps away.

Travellers on a budget rave about this hotel's value for money. The rooms are widely describedas very clean and comfortable, with simple, modern furnishings, shiny hardwood floors, and cozy beds. Several guests have been pleasantly surprised by the roomy bathrooms, not a feature for which the chain is generally known.

The front desk staff receive many positive reviews for their professional, friendly, and helpful customer service. The continental breakfast buffet is widely described as fresh and varied, and guests also love that coffee is always available at reception.

Though guests on upper floors often note that the building is older, and offers good soundproofing from the outdoors and between floors, guests who stay closer to the bottom are kept awake into the wee hours by the music from the Irish pub below as well as the nearby clubs.

Several drivers have been annoyed to find that the underground parking advertised on the hotel website is not directly below the hotel, but instead refers to the discounted rate the hotel offers at a nearby garage, about 10 minutes on foot with luggage.

Though the staff receives many positive reviews, a few guests have encountered the exception to the rule, noting indifferent responses to their inquiries at the front desk or housekeeping oversights.
