Best Western Premier Grand Hotel Russischer Hof  

We liked how centrally located the hotel was to the market area of Weimar. This hotel was also chosen because the staff speaks English and the front desk was open 24 hrs. A day which was important to us on our first trip to Germany. Hotel was beautifully decorated for Christmas and was very festive.

The price for breakfast is too high at 18 euros for the buffet. You can go across the street to one of the many bakeries and have a pastry and coffee for much cheaper.

Luxury

The staff were all very friendly and willing to assist. For example I had lost papers and they helped me locate the required venues. The hotel was clean and comfortable and very well disposed given that the building was 150 years old! Food was good too.

I booked on line and had a reservation number and a confirmation printed out. When I arrived at the hotel they could not find me on the system. As they had a room it was not a problem but imagine if they had not and the town was busy. I could have been in the lurch. It would be nice to know why this occurred so I can be sure it does not happen at future bw hotels

A Historical hotel in a historical location

Visit Weimar....and practical for trips to other interisting places like Naumburg and Leipzig. L.

Very pleasant stay in a central location, excellent for exploring the cultural offers of Weimar.

It was my second time in Russischer Hof, where I stayed last year and truly loved it. Everything was perfect - we asked for a bigger room and received id, the bathroom was splendidly adorned, internet was free and this time we tried the excellent restaurant Anastasia - although it is not officially affiliated with the hotel, it is right there; and it was the best dinner we ever had in Germany. It was a marvelous stay again.

The breakfast was not as good as last year - there were much fewer salads, herring, desserts and no Turingian specialties at all, although sparkling wine was still there.

Comfortable business and tourist hotel. Friendly and helpful staff. Excellent location in the centre of the small city. Reasonable prices.

As often in Germany, beds are much too soft.

Service was very good. We were offered a bigger room as the room originaly booked seemed small, as we travel with our daughter

Great service, superb staff, clean hotel, nicely decorated room.

Die zentrale Lage. Die Innenstadt quasi vor der Tür. Nette gemütliche Hotelbar mit nettem jungen Personal.

Laut der Bewertungen bei booking.com hatte ich mir von dem Hotel mehr Luxus versprochen. Das Hotel ist immerhin mit 4 Sternen superior bewertet. Es ist zwar solide und hat einen guten Standard, aber es fehlt das Besondere, dass man von einem solchen Hotel erwartet. Immerhin ist es ja neben dem Hotel Elephant wohl das erste Haus am Platz in der sehr bekannten Kulturstadt Weimar. Es wurde wohl gleich nach der Wende restauriert (meine Annahme) und das ist nun schon 20 Jahre her und das sieht man. Unser Komfort-Doppelzimmer war relativ klein, die Klimaanlage laut, die Dusche nur in der Wanne. Das Hotel wirkt insgesamt etwas langweilig. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis (immerhin 120 Euro pro Nacht ohne Frühstück am Wochenende) ist nur mäßig. Das Frühstück kostet 19 Euro pro Person extra, ganz schön teuer. Das Frühstücksbuffet war gut, aber auch hier nichts besonderes. Die Einrichtung der Frühstücksräume wirkte altbacken. Aus Zeitgründen bat ich tel. die Rezeption vor meiner Ankunft um die Abholung von Karten zur Stadtrundfahrt in der nicht weit entfernten Toúrist-Information. Dies wurde zunächst abgelehnt und dann doch nur widerwillig ausgeführt. Darf bei einer solchen Hotelkategorie nicht sein.

Sehr gute Lage zur Stadtmitte, freundliches Personal , ruhig und angenehm.
