“Greetings! Last weekend we were happy to visit Bamberg, the capital of beer in Germany. After searching some hotels, airbnb etc.we've decided to stay in Boutique Villa. We could not come early to check in, so our keys was left in safe box. Codes for safe box we got per email. And now to the details: Rooms: The size of the room was approximately 15-20 m2, which is in my opinion is enough. We've booked a room, which is called "Domberg". In the room there are: french (double size) bed, TV, Wi-Fi, shelf and a coach. In the bathroom we found everything what we need. We missed only a bathtube curtain, because during bathing everything nearby was wet... Hotel: This small hotel is in a quiet area close to the Bamberg Dom. It takes max.15 min on foot. In summer (till the end of October) it is possible to chill out outside in the garden in a swimming pool. In our case this pool was unfortunately closed. During the day in the kitchen you can get hot beverages, in the entrance there are also some cold beverages. Close to the hotel there are different old restaurants or brewery bars with nice cuisine. Breakfast: We were happy to realize, that breakfasts are also included in the price . In other places it usually cost 11 Euro per day per person. I wrote breakfast as a separate part of my feedback, because it was perfect to start a day with it. Actually it is a typical German breakfast, where you can find different types of sausages, fish cheese, joghurt, jam, muesli, fried/boild eggs. Just backed buns were also there. A chef which also an owner of this cozy place, made for us a delicious fried eggs with vegetables (see picture). The kitchen is really small, so if you didn't come at 8 o'clock, there is no place. In our case our friends had to wait 20 minutes to get a free table. Parking: The hotel has a small parking area, possibly for 5-6 cars. From the parking area there is a lift for luggage transportation upstairs. Service: A special thanks to Mr.Hartmann for making our stay so comfortable. Mr.Hartmann is a very friendly and polite person. I would like also to thank his female assistants. So why gave I only 4 stars? I don't know why they didn't...however we left at our door a sign "please clean our room", it was not cleaned. So after a long day, we came to our messy room and we didn't have a fresh towels, because we left them on the ground.”

“Katharina herself made our stay so welcoming. She puts her heart and soul into her boutique hotel and it shows. She gave us great advice for getting around Bamberg and cooked us the most delicious breakfast to order.”
