"Die Unterkunft ist zweckmäßig geeignet für eine Nacht auf der Durchreise.

Top Thurnau Hotel Reviews

Center Hotel Drive Inn

8/10 Good

"No staff there most of the time. They full on locked the front desk behind a rolling security door. NO AIR CONDITIONING Good location from Bamburg if you want to save money. Not far bike from many breweries."

ibis budget Bayreuth

10/10 Excellent

"Have stayed multiple times. Can't beat the location to the Festspielhaus, and downtown is a short walk. Small, but good staff and clean. Stays open late so can socialize with other attendees after performances. And AC that works. Right near transportation."

H4 Hotel Residenzschloss Bayreuth

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing breakfast, free bus to the Bayreuth Wagner Festival with pre-concert drinks and snacks, staff very helpful."

Taste Hotel Kulmbach

10/10 Excellent

"I always love Taste in Kulmbach. Outstanding, especially as they always give me a FAN so I can sleep...since there is no AC. Sure, it's cool enough for most, but a fan helps me. The breakfast, which is included, is OUTSTANDING!"

Liebesbier Urban Art & Smart Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great artsy urban feel with high quality built rooms."

Limehome Bayreuth Spitalgasse

8/10 Good

"It's a lovely clean and bright studio in the heart of Bayreuth, a 15 minute walk from the train station and less than a minute from the colourful and lively Maximilianstraße. If you're prepared to self-cater (and the local supermarkets are excellent), then it's a bargain. What stops it from my giving 5 stars? Not much. The apartment can get very hot, although a fan is provided. A separate receptacle for recycling would be welcome, as would a dustpan and brush for daily cleaning and instructions for how to use the hob cooker. Hghly recommended."

ibis Styles Bayreuth

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay. Good breakfast and good room. 15 mins. walk to the Wagner Festival."

JUFA Hotel Kronach – Festung Rosenberg

10/10 Excellent

"The property is off the charts beautiful. We came on hottest week possible and a/c would have been nice. They did have a fan in the room. The food and Bfast was awesome. This place and the kronach area are awesome"

Hotel Brauerei Gasthof Höhn
