  • The Bamberg Cathedral is a church in Bamberg, Germany, completed in the 13th century. The cathedral is under the administration of the Roman Catholic Church and is the seat of the Archbishop of Bamberg. Since 1993, the cathedral has been part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site "Town of Bamberg". It was founded in 1002 by King (and later Emperor) Heinrich II (Henry II) and consecrated in 1012. After the first two cathedrals burned down in the 11th and 12th centuries, the current structure, a late Romanesque building with four large towers, was built in the 13th century.

Safe family hotel

Traveling around Germany by car and wanted a place with safe parking in safe area. This was perfect. Apartment 1 was perfect for three adults to spread out and enjoy. Unfortunately didn’t have time for pool or sauna but everything was clean and never needed to contact management for a problem. Courtyard area would make this hotel perfect for family with children as the area was enclosed and room for little ones to run around Will stay here again when visiting friends in Kulmbach

Alles in allem solide

Sehr gutes Frühstück, schön neu renovierte Zimmer ( abgesehen vom Bad). Mein Fahrrad konnte ich wunderbar in einer extra Garage abstellen. Das Hotel liegt an einer großen Kreuzung, zusammen mit den älteren Fenstern sorgte das werktags für sehr schlechten Schlaf ab etwa 7.

Für Geschäftsreise Ok...

Von außen macht das Hotel einen recht guten Eindruck. Die Zimmer und vor allem die Bäder sind jedoch sehr in die Jahre gekommen und sind auf jeden Fall renovierungsbedürftig. Die Lage des Hotels ist nicht schlecht - man ist gleich in der Stadt. Auch die Freundlichkeit wird hier groß geschrieben. Zum Restaurant kann ich leider keine Angaben machen.
