Hotel berhampiran Kleingartenverein Winzerla e.V., Jena

We stayed in this hotel and were very disappointed. There is a big sign on the door about all the corona rules in this hotel. Cleaning: After check in, we entered our room and found dozens of dead flies in the room. We received an other (clean) room. During the 5 night stay, 1 day we did not get shower towels, only small towels. Another day, room was not cleaned at all. Dirty towels on the floor, trash still full. According to reception, the room was cleaned. When she came to swap the towels, she blamed us, because we put toothpaste tube and brush next to the sink, so in that case no cleaning could be done :-( Reception: According to the website, reception was open 24/7. When we arrived, we found out that ”due to the current situation”reception was only open from 8:00 AM until 4.30 PM (so when there are normally no guests). There was no messgae about this to us before arrival :-( Safety: A group of seniors checked in before us and they mentioned they had no mouth and nose mask (Corona protection). Reception told them that was OK, the sign on the door about masks was just for show, management decided that people could walk around in the hotel without the mask (as required by law). I am not sure why the rules are there in Germany, but the hotel should make sure other guests are safe :-( All in all, we paid the full rate and received not the service at all. Avoid this hotel during Corona times.

Hotel Leonardo is located opposite Goethe's Ilmpark at 3.7km distance of Weimar railway station. The hotel was planned before the fall of the Berlin Wall by Interhotel DDR and opened in 1992. The hotel offers 294 rooms over 6 floors. Furnishings and decoration provide a pleasant and up-to-date atmosphere. There is a bar, restaurant & indoor pool. In July 23 the sauna wasn’t open. Service is friendly. We had a quiet room at floor 3, backside. Our nicely furnished room had desk & chair, hot-water facility for tea, TV, wardrobe, air-conditioning, complimentary mineral water, and 2 very good twin-beds. We had a bathroom with washbasin, toilet & shower over the bath. Window can be opened in safety mode. Good Wi-Fi. All was very clean. A good buffet breakfast is served: scrambled eggs & hard boiled eggs, bread & rolls, small croissants, cold-cuts & cheese, butter & marmalade, juices & fresh fruits, cereals, milk & yoghurts, tea & coffee. Hotel Leonardo is a comfortable hotel. Recommended.

This hotel is really somewhere special. From the minute we arrived to leaving we experienced extremely professional, friendly service. The lovely young lady at reception, the smiling, friendly bar man and the lady at breakfast were especially kind and helpful. I wish I had taken note of their names. The hotel itself is really beautiful, wonderfully maintained, and located on scenic Marktplatz in the heart of Weimar. Our brief visit was so memorable and we can't wait to return some day. Ill firever remember a wonderful breakfast on their outdoor terrace! Treat yourselves and stay there.

Loved my stay here. The Russicher Hof feels like a hotel from an earlier era (as indeed it is), yet with every comfort of a modern hotel. The rooms are gorgeously furnished and the staff was impeccable. No wonder Franz Liszt took up residence here. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat, especially since Weimar is such a magical and interesting place.

Location, lovely restaurant and great staff I booked because it’s right opposite the train station ….. but this hotel is so much more. Often ‘right opposite the train station’ means you are sacrificing something in terms of appearance and slight seediness for the convenience - but not here ! It’s a lovely old hotel (with a nice history), restored several times over the years, with a particularly impressive glass-surrounded restaurant for all meals. Location - as well as being on a pretty square right in front of the train station it’s less than 10 minutes’ easy straight line walk from the museums and the historic old town. There are plenty of nicely located hotels in the centre too by the way - just not as good for train access. The hotel restaurant is a real delight. Go for the breakfast buffet with some of the best prepared hotel bacon I have ever come across - crispy, fat-free and warm - plus all the usual egg, cereal, fruit salad and bread options. Standard coffee good German filter not espresso (though that’s available at the bar); orange juice average. Supper was freshly cooked smallish choice (these do go hand in hand, of course) - have a look at the menu in advance and if there’s something you like the look of eat here, quality is excellent. Staff very friendly; rooms moderate size, very clean, toiletries provided (shower gel and shampoo, no lotion or conditioner). Large non-leaky showers. You can claim a free snack if you forego your room servicing (!) ….. Rooms are non-smoking but they provide a smokers’ lounge for *******. To be recommended.
