Liebesbier Urban Art & Smart Hotel

Liebesbier Urban Art & Smart Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"We loved the hotel - very modern with amazing artwork throughout the facility. The sauna was absolutely top-notch and included easy access to bathrobes and drinking water for a special touch. We ate in the biergarten twice and really enjoyed the food. The salads were excellent, and our son loved the bratwurst and schnitzel platters. Parking was easy right on site for 10 Euros a day, and the front desk provided us with a parking permit to use throughout our stay."
