Hotel Wittelsbacher Höh, Wurzburg

Level of Service at Hotel...

Liked: My wife and I stayed at this lovely hotel for four nights in September 2024. We arrived early but the hotel was able to accommodate us immediately. We found our room to be nicely furnished, with a built-in closet and shelf space, a corner sofa with a table and tablecloth, a mini-bar, small LED TV, and a queen-sized bed with separate mattresses. There is plenty of lighting and just enough electrical outlets. The bathroom is modern with a heated towel rack. There is a radiator hidden behind the sofa and a knob to control the heating level. There’s even a balcony and a door to let in the cool night air. There is a great view of modern Würzburg below.The restaurant serves breakfast and dinner. The wait staff is very attentive, friendly and helpful. The food was always good each night and prices are reasonable. The vanilla ice cream is the best we have ever tasted, anywhere. We found the level of service to be extraordinary; the restaurant was fully booked on a Saturday night, but the wait staff took our order and delivered our dinner to our room despite being extremely busy. The breakfast buffet is one of the best we’ve had in Germany, with scrambled eggs, bacon and sausage, deli meats and cheeses, lox and horseradish, several types of cereal with add-ons like flax and nuts, yogurts, luscious carved melons, and a variety of bread. For the high level of service we received and the quality of the restaurant food and beverages, we thought the Hotel Wittelsbacher Höh was an excellent value.
Disliked: The hotel can become crowded on the weekends, so it’s a good idea to book dinner reservations early. Parking can become scarce, however there is an option to park for free in a reserved lot about 200 meters up the hill from the hotel. If you park in the lot on the hotel grounds, there is a small daily parking fee.

Superb

Best room in the house!

Liked: We had the best room in the hotel - the one with the double balcony - and the facilities and views were fantastic! The staff were friendly and helpful, the bed was comfortable, and everything was spotlessly clean. We loved sitting on the balcony enjoying the view of the castle with a coffee - would definitely go back for that!Excellent breakfast selection; we ate evening meal in the hotel restaurant and that was delicious too.
Disliked: The room was above the hotel reception and the area where people seemed to go out to smoke, so was a little loud at times (eg deliveries first thing in the morning) and we got the smoke when out on the balcony, but all good apart from that.

Good

Liked: Location for a travel stop
Disliked: Old fashioned facility

Great stop over en-route back...

Liked: Lovely location above the town with great views. Restaurant was pretty good and service was on point. Food, wine and beer all hit the spot, as did breakfast in the morning. Dog friendly too. Good size bedroom and bathroom. Everything was spotlessly clean.
Disliked: For us the location a little way out of town wasn't an issue but for some people it might be. There is an aircon unit in the room we had, a little noisy and it's position meant it didn't cool the whole room very effectively but did blow full tilt onto one side of the bed.
