I booked two rooms at the same time at this hotel, which worked out great for our family. The hotel was located perfectly central to everything we wanted to see in Bamberg, and the underground parking was very convenient. Rooms were clean and felt newly remodeled. The breakfast buffet was nice, especially as one of our days was a holiday where many places were closed. The guy at check-in was super nice and helpful with everything that we needed!

I really enjoyed my overnight stay in this hotel. All of the rooms are identified by a colour (I was in the green room - an economy single), which was very comfortable & clean, with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The location is also very good - about a 20 min walk from the train station and 5 mins walk to the main area of the old town. An excellent choice for a solo traveller.

Boasting an excellent central location in the UNESCO-listed Old Town district of Bamberg, this delightful hotel offers modern rooms and free WiFi internet access within a historic building.
Bamberg is the epitome of everything Bavarian: half-timbered houses, medieval splendour and heavenly views. Due to its overwhelming beauty, it’s almost surreal to wander its cobbled streets and drink it all in.
Speaking of which, Bamberg has a surprising number of breweries and inns serving its signature Rauchbier. Most are dotted around the UNESCO World Heritage-listed, pedestrianised historic centre - once at the heart of the Holy Roman Empire. Emperor Henry II ordered construction of the 11th-century cathedral and is buried inside.
His empire’s prince-bishops had it good, and their former seats are scattered over the city. Their Old Palace courtyard has wooden balconies adorned with bright flowers. The New Residence is even grander, with opulent halls reflecting the rulers’ wealth. Michaelsberg Abbey – the bishops’ private monastery - is on one of Bamberg’s 7 hills, and on the highest is Altenburg Castle, another ruler’s abode.
The modern seat of power – the town hall – is the most incredible building of all. Spanning 2 bridges over the Regnitz River, it partly hangs above the fast-flowing water and is overlooked by the colourful Little Venice fishermen’s houses.
Booking.com’s Bamberg accommodation is as eclectic as the bishops’ residences, ranging from old town hotels to cheap apartments and guest houses near Maxplatz, home of the main Christmas market.
Bamberg is a nice compact town which can easily be walked...
Bamberg is a nice compact town which can easily be walked and all the people of Bamberg we encountered were friendly. It had been beautifully kept and so many interesting places to visit or just simply wander about the town and admire the town as a whole. We had an amazing lunch at Hotel Brudermühl just by chancing across it as we walked the town and the Glühwein was pretty good too.
Currently (Dec 2023) there is a lot of restoration and building works so a number of locations are not open or are partially open for visitors but there is still plenty to see and do. Domplatz with the Bamberg Cathedral and New Residence are definitely worth visiting - make sure you go into the rose garden for the view across Bamberg.
In warmer weather a walk up to St Michael’s should be done.
Best thing to do in Bamberg is to walk and just Criss-cross the streets and bridges so you can see the amazing Altes Rathaus in the middle of the river from all angles as well as all the wonderful little finds on your walk. Bamberg is also a little shopping-mecca so remember to put aside some euros to spend here.
Definitely allow 3 days for Bamberg if you want to see everything.

Bamberg was a great stop in between Berlin and Munich.
Bamberg was a great stop in between Berlin and Munich. The small-town vibes are great and the city is beautiful. There is a lot of shopping and food. The boat ride was enjoyable. This town is a perfect mix of enough to do, but smaller and easier to navigate than a big city.
We didn't particularly care for their 'Rauchbier' (smoked beer) although many like it. We had great street food (doener and bakery). There is also a good mix of bigger stores and cute small shops (Christmas stores, bookshops).

One of the most beautiful towns I have visited in Germany. Maybe not the most excited when it comes to nightlife but if you are looking for a fantastic location, old beautiful building, great food and beer in a very peaceful environment with your friends or family, Bamberg is the place.

So much to see and do in such a relatively small space.
So much to see and do in such a relatively small space. So many little quaint corners to discover. So much history, so many good views. The people of Bamberg are really friendly and a wonderful laid-back atmosphere prevails, it's like all the visitors are happy. Sounds crazy but the air there is so fresh and clean in comparison to the Rhine-Main area where I live. The riverside has interesting cafes, bars, restos. The parks are lovely, the bus travel easy. I would avoid the RED BUS hop-on hop-off next time round. It's a bit of a rip-off. The Bamberg 3day ticket is a worthwhile investment.

In our mission to travel around Germany, Bamberg did not dissapointed. It was exceptionally beautiful. Me and my husband were not expecting for this city to be as beautiful as it is. It has a lot of culture, delicious food and beer. Also the people in restaurants were really friendly!
I would definitely recommend for people to visit Bamber, but consider that is a VERY touristy place, so arrange your trip with time.
Once there you will be able to walk to most locations
Best location in Bamberg. Excellent breskfast. We got a solid big room and toilette. Very good price especially in Christmass markt time. Yes if you have heavy luggage be ready to take it one floor over narrow stairs and the rooms could have newer furniture (but the furniture is no way critically old) , but that is minor compared to positives. I booked here because Nuernberg was too expensive in Christmass-time, but it ended uncomparably better than anything I could imagine in Nuerberg. After 22h it was also quiet.
This was our favourite hotel room (out of 10 places) on our trip. What a beautiful, historic place, great rooms, lots of interesting surprises and architectural features around the building, and all that in a fantastic location. We got upgraded to a large room with a huge bathroom and a bonus room! We LOVED the large room with high ceilings, two large windows looking out to the beautiful street/buildings of Bamberg. Wonderful breakfast, use of bikes, and other extras.
Location in the Altstadt can't be beat -- anything you want to do in downtown Bamberg is within walking distance, and it's really cool to exit the apartment directly into the pedestrian zone. Host was very responsive when I had a couple of questions. Probably an easier stay for people who aren't dragging children along, but my kids liked the property and were game for the necessary walking & climbing.
Very nice historic building with relatively large rooms for the kind of building. The bathroom was pretty newly refurbished. My room had a very nice balcony overlooking the inner courtyard. Position is on the way out from Bamberg but still pretty close to the city center, perfect if you've got a car. Even though there's no private parking, plenty of parking places close to the hotel.
Hotel Nepomuk is in an outstanding location, on the river in the old town. With the windows open, you can hear the river flowing down through the old mill weir. Apart from the river, it is in a quiet location - there's no road or street noise. It's an easy walking distance to lots of interesting restaurants & breweries, but about 2km walk from the train station.
We have stayed here years ago and were pleased to see that the quality of this hotel is still maintained.
The staff is more than helpful with getting you checked in and the breakfast is great.
You can walk to almost everything, but if needed the local buses come a half block away and taxi stands are in front of the hotel.
The hotel is well located to explore the centre of Bamberg, The hotel is simple but has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The buffet breakfast was of exceptional quality, with all the food items of this typical German buffet being of delicious. Not the cheapest breakfast you could find, but worth every pfennig.
The location is beautiful and really quiet. The hotel is nicely decorated, not too modern and not too big and has a nice outdoor area for eating. The staff were helpful and spoke good English. Bamberg itself is stunning. There is a bus right to the door otherwise there are riverside walks to Altstadt
first off, Google Maps takes you to the alley behind the hotel. you need to notify google and have it corrected.
This is a great hotel located within a short walking distance to the old town of Bamberg. Everything was clean and updated.
I stayed here four nights. The staff were constantly friendly and helpful and the breakfast was exceptional! I have stayed in many hotels all over the world and this rates as one of the very best. Highly recommended!
The hotel is situated in the center of the town. Very friendly staff, excellent breakfast, large bathroom and sleeping room. We shall always try to get a room there when coming back to Bamberg.
Location was excellent as it was a stroll to and from the Bamberg HBF and to and from the old town as well. The room was refreshed and very clean. The staff were friendly and helpful.
Comfortable room , and quiet location just a few minutes walk from the best parts of Bamberg. Good shower and bathroom. Bike shed large, secure and very useful. Friendly staff.
