Tiptop Hotel Burgschmiet Garni

The location is just perfect in my opinion. It's like living in the old town (which is just on the other side of the road). The matresses are very comfy and I am even thinking of buying the same brand for my house. The breakfast is just awesome! A lot of options available and I can surely say that it is one of the best breafast buffet.

At breakfast we were asked to move to another table, in a corner, but for no reason. We did as we were asked, but to be honest it is not clear why we had to stay in a corner, especially as it was late (9:40 am) and the place was almost empty. We would've loved to stay at the window...It felt like we were grounded..but hey, our mistake for not asking why.

The location was excellent and very close to the historic and commercial center of Nürnberg, basically five minutes walk from the hotel. The hotel is located in a beautiful and quiet street. The room was furnished with great elegance, the bed and the extra bed we required were both comfortable. The bathroom and toilet facilities were modern and the room was clean. The selection of breakfast was wonderfully rich, great selection of salami, meat, cheese, great variety of pastries. The staff at the reception and the dining room were polite, efficient and very helpful. Parking at the back of the hotel was convenient. All in all, Hotel Burgschmiet is a great place to stay and value for money.

Stone throw close to old town Close to public transport Check in quick and provide with local map. Helpful staff and polite. Breakfast was good. Nice size room and smell fresh once you walk in. Good size coach seating in our room. Water kettle was provided after asking for one for making hot drink. Mini bar provided with fees. Free home made nice cookies at check in.

Bathroom was very tiny and shower head was not functioning properly. No tea cup for making hot drink, only wine glasses provided. Lighting was not enough and in bad position. No fan or air-conditioning, but we were okay in October season. Room provided was a bit noisy, as it was close to main traffic, especially on our first night, lots of ambulance services passing by. Pillows were too soft and flat. Breakfast table and area was a bit small.

Location is within walking distance to the old town attractions. Breakfast spread is good. Receptionists and cleaning staff were very courteous and pleasant. Parking space available if reserved beforehand. Room is comfortable and clean. There is lift.

Breakfast is limited to 1 hr only, and if you are late or take longer than the allocated time, you are expected to leave the table.

My wife and I agreed that we’ve never been to a hotel that has got so many things right! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful (including switching us without quibbling to a room at the back of the hotel after we found our initial room at the front too loud with road noise), everything was clean and felt very modern, the room was very well furnished and had everything we needed, including things as simple as having enough hooks for hanging coats in the main room, and washbags and towels in the bathroom — something which many hotels seem to overlook. The bed was very large and comfortable and had a memory foam mattress (we think), there were plenty of other comfortable chairs in the room, the TV was large and modern, and the WiFi speed was great. The highlight was the breakfast which was incredible! There was so much choice, from both local specialities, German specialities as well as continental staples. Everything tasted very fresh and was constantly renewed as things ran out. Oh and there were even free freshly-cooked cookies on the reception desk every day, as well as free Glühwein in a heated urn! Honestly, this was one of the best hotels we’ve stayed in, and we must have stayed in dozens over the years!

The only thing we didn’t like was that our first room, which was at the front of the hotel, was quite loud with noise from the nearby road / tramline. Even though it was December, we wanted to sleep with the window open but then the noise disturbed us, even with earplugs in … but then I’m quite sensitive to noise when sleeping. The staff at reception were very happy to swap us to another room for our 2nd and 3rd nights at the back of the hotel which was considerably quieter and we slept better as a result. This second room was actually much larger but we weren’t charged more which was kind.

breakfast - well arranged and organized

booking of parking: although we had make "click" on the booking for private car parking, it was not provided; we were lucky that available place was on the street just near to the hotel & for free

Excellent location at the top of the old town and near a tram stop, the best evening bars were at the top of the old town. Clean rooms and nice free snack cakes at the reception. Very good value as well. Fridge and safe in the room. Supermarket is 5 mins walk from the hotel and my tip would be to ask for a kettle and then pop to the supermarket for teabags and milk!

We only found out you could ask for a kettle in the room on the last day.

Good location close to old town. Good parking with a reasonable charge. Large room with comfortable beds and good shutters on the windows to exclude street lights. Nice touch was the free cookies at the front desk. All the desk staff were young and friendly.

Very gloomy lighting in the room. Only the bathroom had decent lighting. Overpriced breakfast. There was a large choice of items many of which appeared to be home made but looked far too sweet for me. The quality of the rest didn’t justify the price (rock hard avocado, solid fried egg).

the hotel is located just the outskirts of the castle of Nurnberg. 10 min walk to Christmas market and 5 min to Albrecht Durer House. Very central place. i stayed in a 1 person room and even this one was very spacious and comfortable. it is spotless clean. hotel is 3 star but you get almost 5 star experience. late check-in was possible with a key box and code. the owners are great, very helpful people, always smiling and supporting. hotel was decorated very nicely, even the breakfast buffet and table set-ups were festive. lastly the breakfast- it is amazingly good. selection of local recipes plus fresh cooked warm items. highly recommended if you will stay in Nurnberg.

everything was great.

One can tell its a family run hotel because each and every one of the staff were exceptional; courteous, helpful, always with a smile and attentive to the extent that you wouldn't fault any minor faults because of that. Hotel was quaint, and the room, albeit smaller than expected; was clean, comfortable and well maintained so its a 9.5 star rating. Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again if could get a slightly bigger room.

Just the room was a tad on the small side to have as a working base or to relax in out of the bed, in the evening, if need be. Otherwise could not fault the service, the cleanliness and the well maintained decor.
