This once former prison now converted into a hotel was a great experience for our family. The staff were friendly and hospitable, and they went out of their way to support us. We would stay there again.

Would book there for life sentence. Great cells, many charming details.

07.07.2023 Melvin

Excellent. Everything was good in the former prison

13.06.2023 Gregory

Our room was a little small. Looking into other rooms they were all different. Some were larger, some smaller, all unique. Great breakfast! Short walk to Amberg!

10.05.2023 Marc

Unique accommedation. Very helpfull staff.

Definitely worth it!
ok, I can not compare with other hotels in Amberg as we stayed only 2 nights, and wanted to experience not usual hotel, but hotel in ex-prison; and I can say - as long as you interested in history, this place might be for you! As advice: read a bit before your stay or watch some videos about the place.
I was just a bit disappointed, because we didn't get Themenszimmer even when we booked 5 weeks in advance...
Facilities in our room were in a good condition. Reception administrator and cleaning personal = all friendly, left only positive memories.

One the most strange hotel I've ever been! It's an old prison which has been completely renovated and transformed into a bed and breakfast. There are many kinds of room, most of them have been obtained from the old prison cells, so they are small and ideal for one or two people, but there are also bigger rooms, like the one I was, which was the prison director room and it's simple stunning. The staff is friendly and kind, dressed with police uniform to keep the prison theme, the place is amazing and there are many rooms to explore for take a picture. My room was wonderful but I can't give 5 stars because the problem with the shower outlet which was a bit annoying. Anyway I had a wonderful stay and the staff provided me extra towels to dry the bathroom. Nice continental breakfast, with a lot of fresh food. Probably the best hotel in Amberg.

We only stayed for one night so not a true impression of the Hotel. Our room had a bed surrounded with steel bars and steep steps up to the bed. I know its an old prison but for someone with mobility issues you are going to have a problem. The town is a nice place to visit for one night. The hotel has no parking of its own but there is a car park very close by.

21.06.2022 Sean

Nice hotel within old town Amberg where you can walk to everything. Convenient parking garage behind hotel. You can purchase a parking pass for 10 euro for the duration of your stay. Staff is friendly. The optional breakfast buffet for purchase each day is perfect with a nice variety for its smaller size. The prison suite we stayed in was spacious and clean. We will be sure to stay here again when visiting Amberg in the future.

10.04.2022 Maris

Its a very original and unique place, at the heart of the city. Bit unusual feeling that rooms are former prison cages..
