Everything, being a converted prison it is 'querky' and interesting with the prison bars retained, the old cell doors retained but used to excellent effect as supports for showers etc. Excellent central location , only 5 mins walk from the city centre with a great ice cream shop. Attentive staff, very helpful and they contact you if you are going to be late as the reception is unmanned after 8 pm.
No hotel parking so you have to take pot luck that there are s[paces in the street outside. If you do park there remember its only free up to 8am then you have to pay, only 2 Euros for 2 hours, so not a big deal.

Such a cool hotel. Staff is amazing. The hotel really thinks of all the small touches to bring the prison theme full circle. Shower was amazing! Wooden sliding bathroom door, prison style sink, comfortable bed. Great location, close walking distance to the marktplatz.
It is pretty loud at night when the windows are open with people walking by. Our room was very close to ground level and the noises of cars and people was a bit much at times. But would still stay there again.

Loved the rooms. So, it is an old prison, and one can only imagine the ghost that must haunt the place. So, it is just after 2am I am curled up under my blanket sleeping soundly. In the dead of the night the TV comes on. I stumble out of my bed to turn off the TV and it would not shut off. As I go upstairs to my bed the lights flicker on. Now that is it for me. I am going to get my blanket and my pillow and go sleep in my friends room. As I left up my blanket I discover the remote is on the bed and I had rolled over on the remote and turned on the TV and had hit the light switch on the wall. The rest of the night I slept very well. 😏

Everything!!! What a charming property in an enchanting little town. You can walk to shops, restaurants, cafes and historical sights. Service was top notch and the prison vibe was just right....interesting but not too cheesy. This was my second visit and will be my accommodation of choice next time I am in Amberg.

Wonderful experience, I never slept in a prison, now I did! Everything is strange, the doors are a bit creepy but then the rooms are comfortable. Recommended!
Unfortunately the shower of my room (the director room) had some issues with the water drainage. Not a big problem for a two night stays, but can't be taken into account, since the bathroom was almost flooded after a 5 minutes shower.

It was amazing place. Everything was stylish. The staff was very helpful and kind. The location was perfect, the city center was very close. The breakfast was fine.
The corridor was very noisy in the first floor. I heard people coughed, children screamed and others…

Witty and creative hotel . Comfortable with very friendly staff. Spartan as you would expect in jail, but I typically comfortable 😀
Unfortunately the internet / WLAN was extremely bad . Breakfast is nothing spectacular

I was afraid about the cell but I was pleasantly surprised and delighted by the modern bathroom. Accommodation is in a great location, near town centre. I enjoyed comfortable bed and delicious breakfast.

What a fantastic hotel! I couldn't find anything to dislike... or even to say it could be better. I don't want to describe the premises because it could spoil someone's stay, so I'd rather say: it's even worth a detour just to stay there.

I loved how clean the room was, it was seriously the cleanest hotel I’ve ever stayed in!!!
We wish we had an extra blanket and pillows as it got just slightly chilly but then again, it wouldn’t be a prison cell with multiple pillows and blanket options, ha!
