“Excellent location and value”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 July 2007

I found this hotel just by walking around Trier a little while. The location is excellent. It's on a main street close to the Porta Negra, but it is set back from the street so I had no problem with traffic noise. There is free parking in a locked lot just down the side street next to the hotel. It's an easy 5 minute walk to the big plaza in the center of the city.

My room was very comfortable, extremely clean and nicely decorated in a simple, tasteful manner.

Breakfast was included in the 72 euro rate and was very good.

The rooms are not air-conditioned, which might be a problem in the peak summer months, but I didn't need AC in May.

All in all, a fine hotel and an excellent value.

  • Liked — Room quality, quiet, value
  • Disliked — Lacks AC, but not a problem most of the time.

“Good Central Location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 June 2006

On a getaway with my wife we found this hotel on arrival to Trier.
Pleasant and friendly staff.
Everywhere seemed within walking distance.
Rooms were clean and comfortable.
We found also that our bathroom was on the small side so if you don't like small or pokey bathrooms ask to see the room first before commiting.
All in all a pleasant overnight stay.

“Great Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 May 2005

Lovely hotel. We were on the 3rd floor, front, and the Porta Negra was visible from our windows!!! Clean, neat, good-sized room. Maid service left us little candies on our pillows everyday! Nice touch!

We didn't take any meals at the hotel, although I understand the food is quite good. We took advantage of all the little cafes and restaurants in the area.

Good location. We walked to everything.

“Altstadt Hotel is an undiscovered jewel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 June 2003

I just returned from a trip to Europe that included a stop in Trier, Germany which is in the beautiful Mosel river valley. I stayed at the Altstadt Hotel because the Romischer Kaiser was booked. The local tourist agency made the reservation for me. The Altstadt Hotel is just around the corner from the Romischer Kaiser and a short block away from the market area. The Altstadt Hotel is simply a wonderful place. The desk clerks were very helpful, although they did not speak much English. The room was very, very nice; clean, with wood flooring and high ceilings and a bathroom with shower. The price was 67euros and included breakfast. Breakfast included scrambled eggs with cheese and bits of sausage or mushroom; cold cuts; breads; cold cereals; fruit; yogurt; tomatoes and cucumbers; and a selection of cheeses; juice and champagne in case you wanted a mimosa. On several occasions, I made a sandwich of bread, cheese, salami, tomatoes and cucumber for lunch. I would highly recommend the Altstadt Hotel to anyone visiting Trier. They dont have a website but you can contact the tourism office for reservations. Everyone I met in Trier was very nice and I definitely want to return there someday.
