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

Family run hotel - very pleasant and helpful
Pros:

The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The airconditioning in the room was not functional with a heatwave in Europe 😔
We were provided with a fan on the 2nd night
If the aircon had been optimal then it would have been a good stay
Always a bit of an effort when there is no elevator and you have to lug your bags up the stairs
