Mariandl am Berg

The location of this hotel is great. The rooms themselves leave a little to be desired. There are no coffee makers, microwaves, or refrigerators. There’s extremely limited table space. The bathroom configuration is extremely odd to say the least. The toilet is separate from the shower area. The shower area is wide open to the rest of the room. Which is extremely odd. I am sitting here on a Saturday night, listening to disco music reverberate throughout our room from the rooftop. This has been going on for hours. Since the front desk staff does not stay past 2000 in the evening, there is no one to complain to. I would definitely not stay at this hotel again.

Another business trip - another hotel ( I think I overused this cliché) ... well I can tell you straight forward is more than just "another hotel". Last December I was on business trip in the city of Amberg so I was in need of accommodation and since this hotel was recommend - from more sources - I've asked my agent to book it. Here are the findings - the hotel is located at the beginning of a pedestrian street , however the guests can park in the hotels parking lot that is only a few steps away from the entrance of the hotel - so it is convenient from this perspective. The historical city center is a few hundred meters from the hotel - and very close there are restaurants, breweries and pubs ... well, there are also churches to be accurate and museums within walking distance. Front desk staff very friendly and professional - fast check in an check-out - everything went smooth from the perspective of interaction. Room - very spacious, one of the biggest rooms I had in the past 2-3 years in any hotel - except Hard Rock Hotel in San Diego - the furniture looked new and the room and bathroom were very clean. You don't have a "typical" bathroom - it is an open space in one of the corners of the room, with a walk-in shower, my favorite kind of shower booth. So from this perspective, jackpot! (to toilet is situated in separated smaller room - a nice thing to have this setup). Breakfast - was served at the last level overlooking the rooftops of the city , and in the evening you can checkout the Walkure Skybar - in the morning they serve breakfast there, in the evening they are mixing cocktails - a nice approach using the same space. Prices - I have to say very decent and with an excellent price to quality ratio. There is no doubt, it is a very good hotel , and should I go back to Amberg I would try to book the same hotel - I recommend you try it when you are in Amberg.

Das Hotel bietet sehr schön eingerichtete Zimmer, welche auch recht groß sind. Sowohl Check-In als auch Check-out gingen schnell und problemlos. Alles in allem eine tolle Empfehlung für Amberg. Wo viel Licht ist, ist bekanntlich auch etwas Schatten. Daher hier zwei Punkte der Kritik (jedoch sehr hohes Niveau): 1. Frühstücksbuffet: Die Möglichkeit ein Omelett zum Frühstück zu haben ist toll, nicht toll ist, dass man sich dies als Gast selbst zubereiten muss. 2. Die Vielzahl der an den unterschiedlichsten Stellen untergebrachten Lichtschalter auf den Zimmern sorgt für etwas Verwirrung. Dies sind aber zwei Punkte, die nicht schwerwiegend sind. Der erste Punkt sorgt jedoch schon für den Abzug eines Sterns in der Bewertung, dies hätte den Eindruck einfach komplett abgerundet.

Der Empfang war total nett und freundlich - die Betten hervorragend - die Zimmer sauber, modern und zum Wohlfühlen - die Roof-Top-Bar ist auf jeden Fall mehr als einen Besuch wert - feines Frühstück - tolle zentrale Lage - wir sehen uns bestimmt bald wieder. Ambergmit dem MariandlamBerg ist eine Reise wert.
