My parents stayed at Franconia City hotel this April and here is their review: "Our stay at this hotel was simply delightful! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the peaceful atmosphere, spotless cleanliness, and the warm hospitality of the hosts! They went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, always ready to offer helpful advice (even with our limited German / English language skills), communication was smooth and pleasant. A special heartfelt thank you for the lovely gift from the owner! It was such a thoughtful and personal touch that made our stay even more unforgettable! Breakfasts were a real treat: a generous and varied buffet with something for everyone, and the staff gladly prepared special dishes upon request. Every morning felt like a little celebration! The location couldn’t be better: right in the heart of the old town, just steps away from all the major sights. Plus, getting to and from the airport was quick and easy, which made everything even more convenient. We truly enjoyed every moment and will wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to all our friends and family. Can’t wait to come back!"

Everything. Excellent location, very close to the metro station and to center. Stuff is very kind and helpful ( gives you a map and all the necessary information about the city ). Room was very clean, fully equipped ( coffee machine, hair dryer, amenities, etc ). It has also air-condition which is rare in Germany i think ( we need it because when we visited Nuremberg it was really hot ). Very close to the hotel has a restaurant with excellent traditional Franconian sausages.. Highly recommended.

The hotel is run by a mother and son which I think is so lovely. The son runs the front desk and welcomed me so kindly even though I was drenched in sweat from walking to the hotel from the main train station. He showed me a map of Nuremberg and took the time to point out all of the places I should see. Not only was he great, but the room itself was AMAZING! I stayed in several hotels during my trip to Germany and this was the ONLY one with AC. The room was massive and so comfortable especially for the price! Fun side note: after I got back to the hotel from a day of exploring, he asked me if I visited the Beautiful Fountain and spun the ring for good luck, and after saying yes, he gave me an adorable little key chain with a gold ring on it. It was so sweet. If I’m ever in Nuremberg again, I will not stay anywhere else besides Franconia City Hotel. It is also in a perfect location.

Not even a big deal but it is about a 15 minute walk from the train station which was a little hard for me because I was carrying a very heavy travel backpack. But I would have walked longer for this hotel honestly.

The Franconia City Hotel was ideally located in Nurnberg. We just walked right out of the train station and walked about 13 minutes to the hotel. It was mostly level walk, with sidewalk all along the beautiful city walls. At check-in we were greeted warmly and given quick tour of the city on a map and provided excellent tips for cute streets, local sites, local shops, and restaurants. That made it very easy to explore the city once we settled in. Nurnberg is such a great city for walkers and it is easy to get around. The hotel is just a short walk from museums, historic sites, and shopping. Being close to the train station was also helpful if you wanted to check out sites further out that required a tram or s-bahn. The room was like having a studio apartment with a balcony and a tiny den. It was spacious and clean with all the amenities you'd need. Wifi was good. We had a comfy bed, lots of places to sit, write, or read in the room, there was a tiny room with storage, closet, safe, and a tea kettle. The bathroom was a decent size. Good shower pressure and temperature. Our balcony looked out on the courtyard/parking area for the local fire department. It was not noisy at all. It was a nice spot to drink some tea and read. One night, we saw the firemen play street hockey in the evening, which was a fun surprise. I would definitely stay here again!

Not a complaint just a fact: the hotel does not have an elevator, which was OK for us as this was the beginning of our travels around Germany and we hadn't loaded our luggage with souvenirs. It could be an issue for folks with mobility issues.

I cannot recommend this hotel enough! From start to finish, my stay was absolutely faultless. The team went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and well looked after. A special shoutout to Tim, who was incredibly hospitable – thank you so much for the kebab recommendation; it was spot on and delicious! The room was spotless, with everything I could possibly need already provided. The bed was super comfortable, ensuring a great night's sleep after a long day. Breakfast was another highlight – delicious, fresh, and very reasonably priced. Every detail was thought of, and the staff genuinely cared about making my stay perfect. If you're looking for a place that feels like a home away from home, this is it. Can’t wait to return!

We LOVED our stay. The owners made us feel like members of their family. They were attentive but also respectful of privacy. The room was charming and there is great soundproofing so we couldn’t hear other people or any street noise. The location is superb with the historic sausage restaurant just a short block away and other good restaurants close by. The Christmas markets are just a few minutes walk. We have absolutely nothing negative to say as the hotel is perfectly charming.

Everything was perfect. There wasn’t anything we disliked.

The staff go out of their way to help you with your trip - anything from recommendations to placing reservations for you. The breakfast is fresh with nice variety despite the small size of the hotel. The rooms are well appointed with outlets with integrated USB (type A and C), air conditioning (summer only), and an in-room refrigerator. The location is superb - walking distance from the main rail station, 2 minute walk to the metro, and easy access to the downtown shopping and dining.

One of the best quality-price ratio of the hotels I've ever been to! The room has all the facilities, including some nice touches as a shoe horn (a true rarity in hotels in Europe). The location is perfect for exploring the medieval centre, with a nice old franconiam restaurant just around the corner.

The view wasn't spectacular, as the inner yard basically belongs to the firefighters quarters, but I guess it's not a huge disadvantage of you're a fan of those beautiful firefighters' machines:)

The style and character-historic and cozy yet with updated with beautiful colors and furnishings in the room, location, cleanliness but most of all the owner who personally took care of us. She was so friendly and kind and made sure we were happy and comfortable. She gave us lots of recommendations and ideas for seeing Nuremburg. We will definitely be back next time in Nuremburg. Highly recommend.

Everything was wonderful-no complaints.

I really enjoyed my three night stay at this lovely hotel. The location is great - only 15 mins walk from the main railway station and easy walking distance to all the sites in the old town. Tim and his mother (whose name I unfortunately didn't get) were very friendly and Tim, in particular, was very helpful when I arrived in providing me with recommendations of what to see as well as a couple of very good restaurant suggestions. My room was very comfortable, spacious and nicely furnished, with lots of nice touches - lovely products in the bathroom, a large bottle of complimentary sparkling water, tea/coffee making facilities etc. I would definitely stay here again if I am ever back in Nurnberg.
