Mixed reports: some guests praised very clean rooms, others reported dusty rooms and a lens left on the floor — overall slightly below average.

Generally praised as friendly and helpful with multiple mentions of very accommodating staff and perfect service; isolated report of an unfriendly check-in agent lowered the score slightly.

8.7
Consistently noted as very central and convenient (close to Hauptbahnhof and pedestrian zone); some rooms experienced street/tram noise which reduces the score slightly.

Breakfast and building facilities are good and parking is available, but reports cite no in-room tea/coffee provision and missing bins at breakfast; amenities are adequate but not exceptional.

Comfiest beds ever but unconventional bathroom
Pros:

The bed was super comfy and the location is great. Just a short walk from the main station makes it ideal for business and leisure.

Cons:

When you enter the room you can see right into the shower. There is no door. I was unable to enjoy my shower because it just didn't feel private enough. I felt weirdly exposed. The pictures on booking.com do kind of show that there is no door, but it wasn't obvious enough for me. I had just assumed that there is a door that is open and just out of view. I never even considered that the bathroom wouldn't have a door. The toilet, at least, is separate and does come with a door.

Pros:

Frühstück

Cons:

Servicedame beim Check in (23.10.) sehr unfreundlich und NICHT hilfsbereit. Wir hatten leider keine EC-Karte fürs Parkhaus, eine nette junge Frau hätte es für uns bezahlt, das wollte Ihre Mitarbeiterin aus unerklärlichen Gründen nicht.

Lage des Zimmers an Straßen Seiten, man konnte die ganze Nacht kein Fenster öffnen, Straßen und Menschen Lärm. War eine schlaflose Nacht.

Stylishes Hotel im Zentrum von Halle mit perfektem Service, schönene und tollem Frühstück
Pros:

Ich war schon mehrfach in The niu und werde es im November wieder sein. Mir gefällt alles:
Angefangen bei der zentralen Lage mit perfekter Verkehrsanbindung, über das stylishe Design bis hin zum umfangreichen, leckeren Frühstücksangebot, das man am Wochenende sogar bis 11:30 Uhr genießen kann. Das i-Tüpfelchen ist der sehr zuvorkommende Service

Cons:

Mir fällt nichts ein
