Near train station and bus station
Conveniently located
Will come again!
Near a very nice restaurant for dinner
Good recommendation by staff thx
Always spotlessly clean with friendly staff. Vauban is a lovely friendly modern area of Freiburg with easy direct tram access to the city centre.
Nice hotel and friendly staff. Only complaint was the duvee....typical non feather much too warm and the pillow. Much too thick pillow which twisted yor neck. Everything else very good.
My family and I stayed at this hotel while we were visiting a family member studying at the Uni. We were absolutely blown away by the accommodations.
The staff was helpful and friendly. Housekeeping kept the room immaculate. The breakfast is excellent.
It is right on the tram line, so we were able to travel all over Frieburg. It is right by a bakery, ice cream shop, drugstore, grocery store, an a couple of restaurants.
When we are in Freiburg again, we will definitely stay here.
