The rooms at Hotel Favorit were simple, clean, and furnished nicely. We had an extra single bed in the room for my son and there was still enough room to move about comfortably. The bathroom was in the room, with a shower. The location was good - just a few blocks from the square where the Christmas market is held and a little further from the palace. Also within easy walking distance of the train station, even when carrying a couple of bags. There was some street noise but I
always travel with earplugs, so it didn't bother me. The beds were okay. I was very hot at night and found myself in an all or nothing situation. It was a heavy down comforter or nothing. Our room was on the low side of high priced. Had we had more of a chance to look around before dark, we probably would have chosen another hotel. The real downside of this hotel I believe to be the staff who, with one notable exception, were unfriendly and somewhat discourteous. The exception was Hedi (hay-dee) who told me she only works every other weekend, so you are far more likely to get one of the other front desk
staff or owners. When I took laundry up to the front desk as instructed I was told to bring it back later. Since I didn't even open my mouth before they told me this, they didn't realize that I speak enough German to know that as I gathered up my wash they were making fun of me for bringing it up without a bag. There was no bag in the room, so whatever...
It is often said that Americans assume everyone speaks English. I am not such an American and believe that no one should assume that an American speaks only English. It is rude and offensive to mock someone
right to their face and assume they are unable to understand what you are saying.
I don't think we will stay here again, particularly now that we have re-familiarized ourselves with the town and saw quite a few other options. Had it been a real bargain, I might have been more willing to let the comments go, but when you have high rates, I expect your facility to earn them.
