Pros:

Reception and rooms are on the higher floors of a building. Not an issue with the elevator. Room was basic but clean and comfortable. Convenient location close to the train station and the heart of town. We would stay in this hotel again.

Pros:

Nice stay of 3 nights with an initial glitch -upon arrival my room was only half -cleaned, with fresh (i hope) sheets on one mattress, no sheets on the other, and a used plastic cup in the bathroom. The garbage had been emptied and towels replaced so i guess the housekeeper had run out before finishing? Minimal amenities--shower gel but no shampoo, no English on TV. Safe and convenient location, kind staff, and very quiet room made for a restful sleep.

Excellent location, honest employees
Pros:

A lost wallet was found by hotel staff and I was notified in time to retrieve it before I had to depart. Cash and cards were all accounted for; kudos to the staff for their integrity! The rooms a bit basic but were a good value for the affordable rates. The location is a good compromise between the train station and the old city attractions, we enjoyed the beautiful city.

Quaint sweet hotel
Pros:

Great little hotel, close to the christmas market. Parking was a little awkward, but the parkhaus was very cool. We took a few minutes to drop off luggage at the front of the hotel then i went to park.

Very pleased
Pros:

This hotel was amazing located right in old town and a short walk to everything. The room was spacious and clean. The breakfast had the perfect variety. The best thing about Hotel Gideon is the staff. They went above and beyond and did the best they could with any of my requests. I highly recommend you stay at this property.

Pros:

Nice hotel in the old part of the city within easy walking distance from the train station. Hotel staff were good, especially the German lady at breakfast most days. Beds were a little hard for me. Plainly decorated if at all. Otherwise a good place. Breakfast was fine but the same every day. Good value. Thanks

Pros:

We booked two of the same rooms for our family of 4 (2 teens & parents) thru Expedia but we were given two different sized rooms at check in. The smaller one was too small for 2 people and as a result my husband indicated he would not stay there again if given that room. The larger room was comfortable for 2. Both were clean and well maintained.

Also experienced some issues at check in with their “online” checkin process. After completing everything in their online system two times (due to 2 rooms) they couldn’t get it to update and finally ended up having to write it all down manually. Their electronic checkin process needs improvement!

Additionally, parking is not very convenient due to being a garage that is a bit of a hike with suitcases. Otherwise location was nice and in a great area of town. Lots of restaurants & shopping nearby.

It was a last minute choice. The room was clean and bright under the roof. The staff was already on the go when we arrived and not totally happy to see us…

Pros:

The hotel has a serious staffing problem - reception closed at 1pm the day of our arrival and 2pm when we departed. This was a problem; we needed a place to leave our luggage until our train at 6pm and quite reasonably expected to do so at our hotel, but we were denied. Otherwise, Gideon is a first-rate hotel, which makes the service failure really glaring and troublesome.
