Wonderful hotel. Best staff ever. My only issue is that it was very difficult to find the parking the first time. The hotel entrance is in a tricky location but otherwise great hotel

Food waste
Overall was really good, I was just disappointed that the buffet was fully set up as if the hotel was full when we were just a few guests. I would recommend that room service was provided or breakfast ordered the night before and prepared per each order. The amount of food that was displayed will end up in the garbage and that is sad.

The hotel located in old building that used to be pen factory. 4th floor doesn’t have elevators, you have to climb 30 stairs at least. The room was dirty, spider nets on the light fixtures, tv almost on the floor, you can’t seat and watch tv, definitely not from the bed. The crew communicated, but no results, only sorry and that’s what we have. I’m sorry but it’s not the Sheraton network that I used to.

Dear Guest, thank you for staying with us and sharing your comments with our readers on Expedia. We are sorry to read, that you where not satisfied with the service provided. The building is a historical monument, therefore we are not allowed to put an elevator to this floor. Did you contact the front office team after check in and was a room move offered? If there is anything we can arrange for an upcoming stay, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us and give us a second chance. Have a good week and with kind regards, S.

Dear Guest, thank you for staying with us and sharing your comments with our Expedia-Readers. Our hotel is a famous and old historical building which seams to be the old pelican factory in the past. The building is under monument protection and for this reason there are strict conditions which do not allow us to build a lift from the third to the fourth floor. Next time feel free to get in touch with the team and we will be happy to look for another room. With kind regards S. Utech Reservation Supervisor

Dont stay here
Moldy shower, exceptionally rude reception staff, non-functional wi fi and computers. The staff refused to provide me a receipt when I checked out because I booked on Hotels.com. My adult son stayed with us 2 of the 3 nights and the hotel would not reduce the price for the third night. There are no restaurants near by. However the U bahn is in walking distance.

The hotel is good, clean, comfortable with friendly staff, its not too far from the town centre, transport is just outside (tram) and its fairly close to the motorway. The Italian restaurant close by serves good food too.

Conveniently located to train in city - 3 stops
Hotel service was very good, we had a suite on the ground floor which was very big and comfortable. Breakfasts were very nice The hotel is located in the pelikan square which is a former pen factory, the hotel has a restaurant plus there is a really well known good restaurant and a cocktail bar across the square, normally we stay in the city centre itself but this time chose here as our friends were getting married in the aposthalle opposite, I'm glad we did as we will return the area was really nice and there is a tram stop across the road which gets you into city centre in under 5 minutes - easy to use, cheap and quick

NOT SUITABLE FOR GAY COUPLES
The room we had was on the 4th or 5th floor and it was terrible to get there. We had to use the lift till the 3rd floor and walk up with so much luggage with no help from the hotel staff. We are a gay couple visiting for a weekend and the man at the reception automatically gave us two single beds. I was scared to ask for a double bed as I was afraid it might invoke homophobic sentiments in him. Overall we had a terrible stay as the hotel did nothing to make out stay comfortable.

Good service. The first room I stayed in smelled of cigarette-smoke, but I was able to move to a new room when requested. Disappointing to have to pay for internet connection. This should have been included in rate. I suggest you provide better lightening in the bathroom (makeup-mirror)
