Highly recommend Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten
We loved our stay in Leipzig and Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten added to the overall experience. The hotel is in an ideal location----close to Leipzig HBF The room was excellent----clean and large bathroom. The breakfast buffet was outstanding! Thank you to the staff for holding our luggage while we continued to explore the city.

The property is well located for the centre and you can park on the street outside until 09:00. Breakfast was adequate. The hotel was clean and comfortable and at a good price but we were somewhat put off by the paintings located throughout the hotel, including the room. They are rather "dark' although obviously painted by someone with talent. We felt that the one in our room was 'staring' at us. In the corridors fine but please put some more pleasant artwork in the room.

OK hotel. Wasn't clear that I needed to pre-book a parking space, and had a tricky moment at checkin but it was resolved ok. Room ok, if a little cold. weak wifi signal. Main problem was the night porter who was downright rude to me.

A Nice Short Stay
The hotel is situated on a street across from and behind the left side of the main train station as you face the station. The street appearance and that of the hotel exterior is uninspiring. However ... The small hotel lobby was clean and inviting and the front desk staff quite pleasant and helpful. My single room was reasonably spacious, quite comfortable, and exceptionally clean. The wifi was good and the shower was powerful with plenty of hot water. The morning breakfast buffet was great with varied options. The room was warm upon entering. I opened a window and it became comfortable thereafter. I do not believe that the hotel has air conditioning, so that might be an issue for stays during warmer weather. I closed the window at night so as not to be disturbed by street noise, and the room was quiet. Leipzig was a nice city in which to visit and the hotel is within easy walking distance of almost all sites of touristic interest. I found the hotel to be a bargain.

Convenient and attractive
I chose this hotel because it was near the central station, and reception was open after midnight - I was on a late flight. The amenities were good; the hotel quite attractive; the lifts up to the 4th floor were prompt and I had a nice time. You can get coffee without paying for a whole breakfast. Staff quite friendly and put up with my mediocre German. Free map of the city. My only quibble were the large paintings everywhere which were portraits of threatening-looking faces and not at all to my taste.

Not staying here again...
Close to station and breakfast was under 10 euro. Old hotel, small room, and very noisy. Would not stay here again. Bad value. Room was next to tram and sound proofing was so poor I could hear footsteps walking on the sidewalk. No thermostat - had to control room temp with needle valve flow controller on hot water radiator.

Comfortable Hotel
The hotel was comfortable, clean, and close to the center of the city and the train station. The staff responded to our many questions about Leipzig and were friendly. Having free and open access to the Internet from the lobby of this hotel was a nice bonus. The only negative comment I have about the hotel was the noise at night. Noise went on all night from the trams that went by our window. One night the street was noisy with party revelers. Overall, the hotel was great and I would recommend it to others. Just be ready for the noise.

Not THE Four Seasons Hotel
The staff were friendly and helpful. In general the hotel was comfortable, but since it was not air conditioned, and the temperature was in the 90's, I had to keep the windows open. Outside my window was a street with 4 sets of street car tracks and they ran all night long! Unlike most European hotels, breakfast was not included, so there was an extra charge for breakfast. The WiFi was also extra. The best thing about the hotel was the short walk to the train station and city center. Although the name translates to Four Seasons, it is NOT THE Four Seasons hotel.

I recommend rooms to the rear of the hotel.
We booked this hotel for one night.As we were travelling by train the location next to the main station was very handy.On arriving we were allocated Room 111 which was on the streetside of the hotel which we considered would be noisy due to the tramline outside. On asking for another room we were allocated Room 110 to the rear of the hotel which proved to be quiet. The staff were very helpful in all our dealings with them. We wanted to visit the little known Deutsches Kleingärtnermuseum which is outwith central Leipzig. The receptionist went out of his way to give us the necessary information. Although it had a minibar there was no kettle to have a hot drink in the morning. There is an extra charge for WiFi in the room but there is free WiFi available in the reception area.We were able to leave our luggage in the reception area on booking out.All is spotless and clean although the decor is rather unusual.

Okay for one night
Handy to the Hauptbahnhof and the altstadt. Clean, however room was very small. Wi-fi is by hotspot and is weak and overpriced. Male receptionist was very friendly; however his female counterpart was dour and miserable. Fine for one night or if arriving on a late train.

Great value
I just stayed for one night, but it was quite clean and comfortable. The staff was friendly and polite, and the room was larger than I expected. Breakfast was also pretty good. The location was ideal and close to the places I needed to go as well as the train station. I had no problems with noise from the teams as some others said they had. I would definitely stay here again.

Close to centre of town and very good value.
We had a big room, with a very nice bathroom. Pleased to be able to walk to the Christmas market and to return to hotel with ease. The staff were very helpful. Excellent breakfast. Lots to see and do and the hotel makes a very good base. Three minutes to shopping at station for restaurants and supermarket plus range of Christmas stalls and other shops. St Nicholas and St Thomas churches easily accessible, and the city is at the doorstep. Highly recommended.

Good location, right across from station
It was a good value, and I may stay there again. However, if you want a room on the quiet side of the hotel (i.e., the one that doesn't have the tram running past it), you have to pay an extra 20 Euro. Fortunately, it wasn't too hot when I stayed there, so I closed the window and requested a fan so that the heat was bearable. If it were the middle of the summer, though, I don't know that I would have been able to sleep. Also, it is advertised as having free internet, but this is not in the rooms, only in the lobby. Breakfast is not included in the cost.

Friendly,welcoming staff
Hotel appears to have recently been refurbished. Staff all friendly and welcoming. The receptionist was very helpful when I had problems connecting to wifi. Room was lovely and large only improvement would have been to have a kettle. For light sleepers there are very busy tram lines immediately outside the front of the hotel and rooms on the front can be affected by this.

Comfortable friendly small hotel vnear the station
The reception staff are very nice and remembered me even though I had only stayed once before - a benefit of it being a small hotel. I wanted a bath so had to upgrade to a double room - but what a double room! Huge with semi 4 poster bed, certainly one of their best, which I guess happened to be free so they kindly gave it to me. Best to have a room on an upper floor and at the back of the building as trams frequently pass outside at the front. General area not great - that's why you pay less - but right next to station/ across the main road from the city centre
