“No problems here - great place”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 July 2011

We arrived four days ago (7 July 2011) and stayed for four days.
When we arrived we realised the room was ready for only one occupant, but after talking to reception, the helpful young man closed the reception (there was nobody waiting to book in, BTW) and personally took up the extra towels, duvet and pillows.
The breakfasts were really good, with smoked salmon (I'm not kidding) great cheeses which were not part of the "cheese and ham" slices that is a normal European breakfast, even though they were there as well.
There was a range of fresh bread to choose from; even French rolls that you could cut yourself, with a cloth napkin (for hygiene) provided. I won't describe everything else as I didn't eat it, but it consisted of fresh yoghurt, various cereals and orange juice, etc. All very fresh-looking.
We had room 209 on the second floor, but, as per the previous comments, we ordered a room facing the courtyard. Very quiet indeed.
The room was well decorated, although the bathroom did have a retro-80s feeling, and the hot water took two minutes to come through.
We found out just before we left that you can have vouchers that allow you *free* parking in the big parking garage in the square across from the hotel. We goofed, because we didn't ask about this, but were told on the last day by reception. 10 Euros a day didn't seem that much, but it was nice to not pay anything at all for the last two days.
The hotel is very close to the centre (everything is "around the corner" in Regensburg), and the price was very good. I read here that it was a lot less than their normal tariff.
24-hour service at reception, although the lift could do with a refit (built in 1962).
We liked this hotel a lot, and will go back in the future.

“Our room faced the courtyard and was very quiet, the bathroom clean and beds comfortable. Enjoyed our stay.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 March 2010

We enjoyed staying at this hotel very much. The room was large and quiet as it faced the courtyard. The building is old and part of the history of the hotel was interesting in itself. The bathroom was nice and the room was cleaned daily. It had a small bar, a large and bright breakfast room, and the staff was very helpful. The location was wonderful as it was in the older part of town and all the historical site were within walking distance. Staying again at the Karmeliten would be no problem for us.

“Three Hours Sleep does not a hotel stay make!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 August 2009
1
person found this review helpful

This hotel looked reasonably good online, and having not been to Regensburg for several years, the combination of a cheap online rate (70 euro) and a central location made it seem worth a try. Do not be tempted into staying here! We were given room 330, at the corner of the building on the the third (top floor). After a scary trip up a squeaky wooden staircase (the lift made far worse noises), the room initially looked good - huge for a cheap hotel, and with a partial view of the Dom (cathedral). On closer examination, however, the carpet was stained, the bathroom dated, the furniture rattled when heavy vehicles drove past, and the twin beds were ridiculously soft and wouldn't stay together when we both lay down.

Most importantly, however, the hotel has no sound insulation, despite being on an extremely busy junction and having a bar/nightclub downstairs. There is very basic secondary double glazing which we were forced to close completely due to the noise outside, which made the room stifingly hot (and no fan or air-con was provided). Between the heat and the noise, neither I nor my partner got any sleep until the night-time noise settled down at about 4am - and we are Londoners!

I have had much better nights' sleeps in basic hostels and would strongly suggest that if you are visiting Regensburg, either stay somewhere that is outside the old town (which is tiny anyway), or check about soundproofing before booking.
