Business trip
"Business trip, good check in, was there early around 11am but room was ready. Rooms were spacious and clean, pillows not the best on the bed! Breakfast was a little sparse in the offering, no German sausage which was a surprise! Overall a good hotel, nicely located near the city centre."

Braunschweig surprise
"A great surprise of a hotel - we were able to check in early which was a real godsend as we had a very early flight that morning. The service was excellent and the breakfast superb. The room was basic and maybe a little tired but much more than adequate. The location was good opposite the main station ..."
