Location in Goetheplatz is as convenient as it gets for exploring; definitely ask the folks working the desk for recommendations in Weimar (you'll get more options than you can choose from). Guests were of all ages, with various interests, and from all around the world/Germany. Beer and breakfast are inexpensive, and the coffee is always free! If you're torn between staying here and somewhere else, I'll make it easy for you - stay here!

The receptionists were very warm-hearted and accommodating and always available to answer questions. There's a lovely garden space with a friendly neighborhood cat. A very convenient location in the center of Weimar; all the buses stop right in front of the hostel and it's an easy walk to the train and Flixbus stations. There was a very sweet feeling of community that made Labyrinth a home away from home for the three weeks of my stay.

You're forced to use an antiquated pay-for-internet-time system that works sporadically at best. The rooms are small. Showers are on a short timer. And, during a stay with a group, the hostel screwed up the reservation with no apology. If fact, the approach of the staff and the manager is that they're doing a favor by just being there. Maybe it works for Germans familiar with such an attitude. But if you're a foreigner be very wary of this place or at least be prepared to be insulted. There are alternative lodgings in Erfurt and Weimar. I would urge you to consider them.

Located nicely and providing a perfect central base, Hotel Unstruttal was our choice for our wine…read morecountry getaway Very large rooms, free wifi but th beds are not the most comfortable. The setup is almost like camp where there is a very thin mattress that is sitting on wooden slats. No refrigerator in the rooms which would have been nice. If there are hotels in wine country, having a fridge would be an ideal addition to chill the days' purchased bottles of delicious wine But aside from those small suggestions, there was free wifi and the shower was fantastic Location was central to all our winery visits & the breakfast buffet was a lovely setup of cheeses, meats, breads and eggs and the most wonderful homemade jams & jellies We tried an elderflower jelly that was to die for. So flowery and sweet - we tried to sneak our way to purchasing a jar but didn't work out.....will just have to dream about this deliciousness and look forward to coming back

We've eaten good food and consumed some of the world's finest wines in France, Austria, Germany,…read moreCalifornia, etc. My wife and I both agree that we've never eaten as well as we did in the Hotel Unstruttal. It simply was a new experience in good eating for us. The wines? Saale-Unstrut wine, from what once was a part of East Germany, still is too little known in almost all places. That's both fortunate and unfortunate. Fortunate because it's Germany's 4th smallest wine-growing area, so the supply is a bit limited. Unfortunate because the best Saale-Unstrut wines are markedly better than the best in a few of Germany's better known wine districts. In character, the Saale-Unstrut wines compare closest to the best wines in Franconia (Franken). Hotel Unstruttal offers a wide selection of many of the best Saale-Unstrut wines. One finds the high point in the dry Rieslings and Pinot Blancs (Weißburgunder on the label). However, our positive astonishment went to the 2014 Burgwerbener Herzogsberg Blauer Portugieser (Portugais bleu) from the Thürkind family in Gröst. One knows the Portugieser as a light, fruity red wine best suited for summer evenings in an Austrian Heurigen. Hotel Unstruttal and the Thürkinds surprised as with a very serious Portugieser of strong character and depth that can hold its own against most German and Austrians Pinot noirs (Spätburgunder). The accomodations? About as good and tasteful and comfortable as they can get in the European countryside. And then we have the Schlagobers (whipped cream atop an Austrian coffee) of the Hotel Unstruttal: The owners Jan and Ria Kannetzky. One would seek a friendlier and finer host and hostess combination in vain. Summary: We're already dreaming about returning to Freyburg and the Hotel Unstruttal next year.

Blow away The…read moreDomizil is my personal "Hotel of the year - and I have my share of hotels through my travels: It's a relatively small, family run hotel next to Erfurt's dome and citadel at the heart of Erfurts astonishing historic old city center. The rooms within the old building (17th century) are just recently renovated and have been tastefully but functionally furnitured: while it's nice the business traveller finds a desk to work and a comfortable chair. The TV in the room is actually a set you could think of having at home, lacking the annoying hotel TV services. Given all that, what actually blew me away was the great service: the owner herself, a very nice lady, takes care of the customers and insisted in my case to provide a breakfast (eggs, bread, cheese, ham, cappuccino, orange juice ...) at 5:30 in the morning. I tried to talk her out of it, she insisted, it gave me a great start. Their tag line "historic modern" can be extended to "historic, modern, home" - as Domizil (Latin for little home) suggests. Go there and love it like I do.

The bathroom, albeit outdated, was very clean. Downstairs is a huge lobby with a piano. The restaurant is wonderful. I ate there twice and both meals surpassed my expectations and were reasonably priced for such an experience. Customer service was great. This would be the hotel of my choice when in Weimar.

We stayed here for 3 nights in May of 2018 and were quite pleased with the experience. We…read moreespecially appreciate the central location in Weimar, right on the Frauenplan and, as the name promises, within mere steps of the Goethehaus. It's an easy walk to all of the important traditional sights in classic Weimar. If you're into 3-star German hotels, as we are (super combination of price, very nice rooms, and efficient professional staff), you would do well to consider Hotel am Goethehaus. The only limitations of the hotel that might matter to some readers are 1) it does not have a lift, which would matter to persons averse to stairs (as many as 3 flights), and 2) the hotel lacks a restaurant. However, there are several very nice places within mere yards of the front door. Also, 3) hotel-owned parking, while available, is limited. This of course is a real consideration in a city - though a public underground garage is within easy walking distance. It is for these reasons alone that I'm giving this a 4-star yelp rating instead of 5-star -- I do so out of consideration for the opinion of other travelers for whom considerations regarding stairs and parking are of more importance than they are to me. To me the difference is inconsequential - this is a fine establishment. Before ending, I would like in particular to call attention to the wonderful help rendered by Herr Rauch in resolving a mix-up in our reservations -- which was our fault, not that of the hotel. Despite our needing to communicate in a mixture of his limited English and my less-than perfect German, and in spite of the fact that we arrived over the busy Pfingsten holiday, Herr Rauch managed to arrange accommodation for us in the hotel's Ferienwohnung and made other helpful arrangements for us, which saved that portion of our Germany vacation. Hats off (and 5 stars) to Herr Rauch! For all the reasons stated above, I would definitely stay in this same hotel if I'm ever again in Weimar.

Restaurants, bars and shopping literally around the corner. Check in was easy and friendly. Staff were very kind. Lounge is comfy. We used Bonvoy points so I can't comment on pricing. Car park on site for 22€ for overnight. Our room was 114. Upgraded due to being a Bonvoy Lifetime Titanium Elite member. Breakfast was included. Room was luxurious. Nice robes and linens. Extremely quiet. Garden view. Balcony off our room but it was cold and rainy so we couldn't use. Only negative is Hitler stayed here way back when. This is like staying at Mar-a-Lago now days!
