Hotel Plattenhof was perfect for me. It’s not bling but real and comfortable. I thought the bathroom was perfect - none of this long distance trek to the shower. The staff were wonderful. I took me only fifteen minutes to walk to the train station but it is also a gorgeous park up the hill from the hotel - another fifteen minute walk.

The hotel was quite nice. A good design of spaces, comfortable beds and clean bathroom. The bathtub was a good size for soaking and I did...The bar serving coffee and drinks is a nice addition and the restaurant was quite good. I did not include breakfast so I don't know how that was. It was quiet even being located near the university and hospital. I'd stay again
