good for a 1 night stay
Guest name: globaltheNetherlands, the Netherlands
Clean and modern hotel. Location is very good - in walking distance of the old city and next to the Railway station and Underground.Single rooms are very small but sufficient. Rooms very noisy, every announcement from the railway is heard. Something is wrong with the ventilation system in the hotel, when I was there my clothes were ruined by a very bad oily smell from the vent system in the public areas/restaurant. The lunch we had was poor, fatty and not tasty. No sprinkler or smoke detectors in the rooms.Staff was friendly and helpful. Public transport ticket incl. in room price is a very nice idea.
Noisiest ever!

This hotel is immediately adjacent to the Hauptbahnhof, and gives convenient access to the centre of town. However, we had a room overlooking the railway lines: The night was warm, there is no airconditioning, so we had to have the windows open. Announcements from the station, and the passing of trains made sleep VERY difficult. We have stayed at a total of four hotels in Nuremberg, and this is the least satisfactory.

The hotel itself is beautiful, and very conveniently located across from the train station which is why we booked it. The bathroom was really small but clean. The bed was very comfortable, and the rest of the room, also very clean. Breakfast was very good and the hotel bar was pretty nice. However . . .
If your room faces the train tracks (as ours did) you will listen to trains come and go all night, along with announcements for each and every train all night long. It was so loud, it sounded like the train was stopping in our room. My husband and I are not picky about hotels, but after the first night there we were drinking our faces off just to sedate ourselves enough to sleep.
Other guests said that the front of the hotel was fine, so if you book this, ask for a room in front.
We also stayed in the Munich InterCity and I've heard they're all nice.

We stayed at the Intercity Nuremberg in December 2006. The location was very good as you only have to walk a short distance when you arrive by train. It's also centrally located, which is of course an advantage. I was surprised, however, that the hotel had been awarded three stars, as the corridors and the rooms have pretty much of a "budget" feel to them, everything fairly small and fairly basic. Our double room had a double bed, a small desk with a chair, a minibar, a small bathroom with a shower (no bath tub) and that was that. The walls could have done with a lick of paint. The furniture was clean and functional but not particularly stylish. I probably would not choose this hotel again as you get other budget hotels in the centre of Nuremberg which also charge budget prices.

This is a budget hotel near Nuremberg station. The rooms facing the station are smaller and very noisy. The rooms facing the street are slightly less noisy (though you still get the pleasure of the station announcer's voice from 5.a.m. until 1 a.m. the following day) and have bigger beds and a little more room. However, the downside is that you pay 10 Euros more a night for them. the room we stayed in on the third floor was clean and non smoking - but you do have to ask. The bathroom was fine but was shower only, no bath.
The breakfast buffet looked fine, but its not cheap and you can find nearly as much for less within walking distance and, of course, the station has lots of fast food outlets.
The staff were helpful but there is no bar or restaurant worthy of the name and US visitors will be surprised to find themselves charged for internet access at the rate of 5 Euros for an hour and 3 Euros after the first occasion to borrow an iron.
In summer the absence of air conditioning is a problem, but you can borrow a fan and this will at least move the air around and help block out the station noise. We found that this worked OK, but that might have been the beer and sausage working!
The hotel provides free transport passes for all local transport on a two daily basis and this is very useful. As is the mini bar, mainly because you can remove all the goodies and store your purchases from the local Liddels in it.
In sum, its a better than average budget hotel, that is very well located but you do get what you pay for. Still, we stayed there for 15 nights and found it OK.
