Pros:

Ein sehr nettes familiengeführtes Hotel! Blitz sauber, reichhaltiges Frühstück, bequeme Betten und es liegt so zentral, dass man Nürnberg super zu Fuß erkunden kann! Viele Tipps bekommt man auch, ein Parkhaus ist direkt gegenüber. Parkgebühren werden zum Teil vom Hotel vergütet!
Wir hatten eine schöne Zeit in Nürnberg!
Nur zu empfehlen!

O acolhimento do Hotel Francônia fez nossa estadia especial.
Pros:

**Acolhimento, conforto e ótima localização**

Fomos muito bem recebidos pelo Tim e por sua mãe, Kerstin, que fazem a gente se sentir em casa desde a chegada. Como também somos anfitriões, sabemos o quanto esse cuidado faz diferença, e eles fazem isso com muito carinho. O Tim nos deu excelentes indicações em Nuremberg, que fizeram toda a diferença na nossa estadia.

A suíte era muito confortável, com sacada, closet e mesa de trabalho. Também tinha xícaras, chaleira elétrica, frigobar, ferro de passar e secador de cabelo, comodidades que nos faziam sentir em casa.

O café da manhã é cobrado à parte, mas vale muito a pena. É delicioso, com salsichas, almôndegas, ovos preparados na hora, frutas, iogurtes e muito mais, tudo acompanhado de uma ótima trilha sonora.

A localização é excelente: fizemos quase tudo a pé, e para o que dependia de transporte havia uma estação bem pertinho do hotel.

Recomendo muito o Franconia City Hotel!

Cons:

Gostei de tudo!

Fabulous hotel
Pros:

Sparkling clean, the owners were ever so helpful with any queries, above and beyond, and even did a plan to get around to places by train. Fabulous location, quiet, yet near everything., so comfortable and spacious room. We were lucky to have a little balcony (to watch the fire station!) and i loved the little dressing room. I have nothing bad to say!!

Cons:

Nothing alles war gut!

Great Stay
Pros:

Great directions to the hotel and the parking garage right across the street; it was easy to find. We were greeted by the owner when we walked in and she was great - very friendly and helpful. The lobby was a bit deceiving (a bit small and old) but the rooms are incredible. The room was spacious (especially for Europe), bright and clean. The bathroom was small but updated, clean and fit all our needs. Breakfast is available here but we opted to not pay for it. This hotel is run by a mother/son team and they are amazing. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend others to stay too. For the price - it is a really great room!

Cons:

Nothing

Nürnberg bei Nürnbergern
Pros:

Gefallen hat alles: günstige Lage im Zentrum in Nähe einer U-Bahnstation, schönes Zimmer, bequem großes Bad, Frühstück und Kaffee lecker (wenn auch nicht mit übergroßer Auswahl. Dafür aber mit individuell frische zubereitetem Rührei!) aber vor allem: das fantastische Personal. Das Hotel ist familiengeführt und das merkt man. Bei der Ankunft habe ich sofort wirklich gute Tipps für einen Stadtbesuch und Restaurants erhalten, die alle richtig gut waren. Als ich sagte, dass ich das Reichsparteitagsgelände besichtigen wollte, bekam ich neben den Verkehrsverbindungen auch gleich ein Buch darüber, das ich mit aufs Zimmer nehmen konnte. Bei Abreise konnte ich das Gepäck problemlos noch in der Unterkunft lassen, bis es für mich weiterging. Ein rundrum gelungener Aufenthalt!

Cons:

Den Punkt kann ich guten Gewissens überspringen.

Wunderbares Hotel inmitten von Nürnberg's Altstadt
Pros:

Unser Aufenthalt im Franconia City Hotel hat uns rundum wunderbar gefallen. Wir wurden sehr freundlich von der Besitzerin persönlich begrüßt, die uns ausführlich über Nürnbergs Sehenswürdigkeiten informierte und uns viele Tipps gab, wo man gut und relativ preiswert essen kann. Besonders glücklich waren wir auch, dass direkt gegenüber vom Hotel ein Parkhaus zur Verfügung stand und wir nicht erst mit dem Gepäck durch die Gegend laufen mußten. Das Hotel liegt absolut zentral in der Nürnberger Altstadt und man ist ist nur wenigen Minuten im Zentrum und auch relativ nahe zur Burganlage. Das Hotel ist inhabergeführt und wir hatten viele nette Gespräche. Wir können dieses Haus definitiv empfehlen und kommen gerne wieder.

Cons:

nichts
