This hotel is conveniently located near the river ("am ufer" means on the riverbank) for biking on the Mosel. It's clean, offers cold beer, a selection of wines, and good pizza if you aren't in the mood to go out. The city is just a short walk away for shopping and sight-seeing. Breakfast was excellent! Parking is free and easy. You won't have internet in your room but there is a computer available in the lobby.

We stayed here as a result of getting information from the local Tourist Office, the gentleman there was very helpful. The hotel was lovely, clean and friendly, with good food and a short walk to the centre of Trier.

This is a good hotel to stay at when you travel to Trier, Germany's oldest city.

The nice thing about this hotel is that it is outside of the city center. We first booked rooms in a hotel just around the corner from the Porta Nigra, however the reservation fell through and we booked 4 nights at Hotel am Ufer through the city tourist bureau. After wading through the crowds of people in the city center for 3 days, it was refreshing to know we were staying at a hotel where we weren't being jostled and crowded by people, and we could find quiet places to eat and enjoy the view overlooking the Mosel River.

The hotel is a 5-minute walk from the river, and across the street from the Youth Hostel. If you stay here, get a courtyard room. Rooms that overlook the river also overlook a very busy and noisy street. The owner speaks excellent English and is VERY helpful with advice and bookings. Breakfasts are excellent and plentiful and you have your own reserved table with a list of daily events and activities going on in Trier that day.

The beds are comfortable and bathrooms clean and big enough for two people to move about in. Some of the hotel rooms are apartments, but the neighbors were quiet. There are 10 nice little restaurants right on the river within a 5-10 minute walk of the hotel. An underground passageway takes you safely under the busy street traffic. The river is very scenic and tranquil at night, and makes a nice couterpoint to the busy city center and tourist haunts. If you want to, you can walk 20 minutes into town or catch a bus close to the hotel that will take you right to the Porta Nigra.

If you come by car, this hotel has good parking and easy access to the main road that runs along the river. I recommend staying here.

Room rates were reasonable: 80 Euros per night.
