Hotel Goldener Anker

I took the train to Nuremberg for its Christmas market, and the station was only a few minutes’ walk from the hotel. In Bayreuth, I got a peek at some of the other bedrooms, all different and exquisite. Mine was spacious, clean, and decorated beautifully in red, with a gleaming ensuite stocked with tissues, shower gel, lotion, mirrors, towels in every size, and a comfort box with a shower cap, ear plugs, cotton pads, and buds. The bed was comfortable, and the hotel felt warm and cozy. Breakfast was delicious, served by friendly staff in an elegant dining room with white tablecloths and real silver cutlery. The food was cooked perfectly and included goose, trout, and beef, with an excellent chef. I was warmly greeted at reception by a real person, and they carried my bags up to the room. The hotel itself was beautiful and unique. I was overjoyed to find that hotels like this still exist, with their quirky character and wonderful attention to detail. It was an awesome, relaxing, enjoyable stay.

My first time at this wonderful Bayreuth hotel, and the central location, stylish rooms, and fabulous dining all hit the mark. The service was exquisite, with the kind of manners and personal attention that took me back in time. I had to post under my moniker, but Eva and her team will know me as Anthony A...!

The restaurant’s traditional food was a highlight for me. I enjoyed every bite of the authentic dishes. The hotel itself is full of history, and stepping inside felt like being transported to another era. Its historical charm and culinary delights made for an enchanting stay. If you want a memorable visit immersed in tradition and culture, this is the place.

The breakfast was fantastic, with lots of choices, homemade marmalade, and a massive silver coffee pot and cutlery. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff were so friendly, the kind you hardly see anymore.
