Top Thurnau Hotel Reviews

Hotel Rheingold

10/10 Excellent

"Nice location. The hotel was quiet and easy to get to. We had a rental car and having a garage for parking was helpful. We did not purchase breakfast."

Hotel Brauerei Gasthof Höhn

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, excellent staff. Breakfast a bit limited, but good. Parking more than satisfactory."

Center Hotel Drive Inn

8/10 Good

"No staff there most of the time. They full on locked the front desk behind a rolling security door. NO AIR CONDITIONING Good location from Bamburg if you want to save money. Not far bike from many breweries."

H4 Hotel Residenzschloss Bayreuth

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing breakfast, free bus to the Bayreuth Wagner Festival with pre-concert drinks and snacks, staff very helpful."

Taste Hotel Kulmbach

10/10 Excellent

"I always love Taste in Kulmbach. Outstanding, especially as they always give me a FAN so I can sleep...since there is no AC. Sure, it's cool enough for most, but a fan helps me. The breakfast, which is included, is OUTSTANDING!"

Liebesbier Urban Art & Smart Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great artsy urban feel with high quality built rooms."

Limehome Bayreuth Spitalgasse

8/10 Good

"It's a lovely clean and bright studio in the heart of Bayreuth, a 15 minute walk from the train station and less than a minute from the colourful and lively Maximilianstraße. If you're prepared to self-cater (and the local supermarkets are excellent), then it's a bargain. What stops it from my giving 5 stars? Not much. The apartment can get very hot, although a fan is provided. A separate receptacle for recycling would be welcome, as would a dustpan and brush for daily cleaning and instructions for how to use the hob cooker. Hghly recommended."

ibis Styles Bayreuth

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay. Good breakfast and good room. 15 mins. walk to the Wagner Festival."

JUFA Hotel Kronach – Festung Rosenberg

10/10 Excellent

"The property is off the charts beautiful. We came on hottest week possible and a/c would have been nice. They did have a fan in the room. The food and Bfast was awesome. This place and the kronach area are awesome"
