Erholsame Nacht in einem schönen großen Zimmer mit sehr bequemem Bett.
Pros:

Modernes großes Zimmer und gute Lage mit guter Parkmöglichkeit. Hundefreundlich. Ruhige Lage. Sehr sauber.

Cons:

Kamen am Sonntagabend nach langer Fahrt an und konnten im Hotel nichts essen, weil das Restaurant geschlossen war. Für so ein großes Hotel finde ich das nicht gut.

Schönes Hotel!
Pros:

Es war soweit alles super: die Lage, das Zimmer, die Sauberkeit im Hotel.

Cons:

Der Fitnesstaum könnte etwas moderner sein. Die Parkgebühren in der Tiefgarage sind ziemlich hoch.

Pros:

Good location for exploring Jena and getting out and about on public transport. Old town square close by (great cafes for breakfast). Friendly staff. Nice room with kettle and tea/coffee.

Cons:

Had a business trip vibe in terms of design and set up. Food was extremely expensive so we ate out for the whole stay.
