Reviews
Great location within the city walls.
Nearby parking.
Romantik Hotel Markusturm is truly exceptional. The management family and their entire team are warm, professional, and genuinely welcoming — you immediately feel well looked after from the moment you arrive.
The hotel itself is beautiful, full of character and charm. The rooms are enormous, impeccably maintained, and extremely comfortable, combining historic elegance with modern comfort.
We also had the pleasure of enjoying the New Year’s dinner, which was absolutely delicious and very well executed — a real highlight of our stay.
Overall, this is an amazing hotel set in an equally amazing environment. Everything came together to create a memorable experience.
Thank you to the entire team for a wonderful stay — we will most certainly return.
Excellent location for walking to shops and restaurants.
This hotel has a resident cat who is the sweetest and most friendly little thing. We loved it.
You pay for the location, which is absolutely magical.
Rooms are beautiful; modern with some antique pieces. We had a deluxe family room for four of us with a spacious bathroom and changing area.
Breakfast is only 10e per person and they were well-able to accommodate our child's food restrictions. The children loved having hot chocolate and waffles for breakfast. We also enjoyed the large chess set at reception.
