    The room was stiflingly hot during the night and we were not able to ventilate the room adequately. on check out we did notice a different room had a fan but we had not thought to ask for one.

    The building was very impressive and room comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The complementary tea and water was great and we enjoyed sitting in the outdoor space. The breakfast was excellent with plenty of choice. The hostel communal areas were well maintained and everything was kept clean and tidy.

    Rooms need a fan. No airflow at night and they get very hot. Our windows were open all night but no flow meant air was hot. With window open, we could hear the night life also, they seemed to have a good time until about 4am. (Totally expected for a hostel) Other than that fantastic

    Location and building itself. Staff were amazing

    The elevator got too busy because of so many kids playing with it. It would have been nice to have a small shelf or side table, next to the bunk, for phone and glasses.

    The food was great, and the staff was extremely helpful. We loved the idea of being in a castle, too.

    Our room was SO hot. There was no ventilation other than a window that opened a smidge. Also the power sockets were very hard to find in the dorm. Usually expect one per bed at least but we had one singular socket hidden behind a bench for a 6 bunk room! The front desk kindly helped us locate it and provided an extension with multiple sockets but still, not ideal!

    Super interesting/quirky place to stay. Helpful staff and super clean

    It was lovely...there were a lot of school children staying when we were there but they were all really well behaved and not an issue at all.

    Everything was wonderful. I can't think of anything that needs to be improved.

    The location was awesome. And the facility itself exceeded our expectations. It. was modern inside and the room was very comfortable. We really enjoyed the breakfast options and drink availabilty. Lastly but most importantly, the staff was very friendly and helpful during our stay. I would definitely recommend this location as a great option for families who want a room as close to the caste as you can possibly get.

    There was only 1 electricity point in the room so maybe another one or two now we’re all reliant on our phones would be good.

    It’s v cool being able to stay in a castle! The room was basic but clean and with its own bathroom, the staff were friendly and the breakfast was lovely.

    No complains. I would stay in this place again.

    Although it's a hostel, it has private rooms also and we stayed in one of them. Excellent price to amenities ratio. Excellent location, right beside the Castle and inside the old city. Clean, comfortable and spacious, two-level room. Breakfast was good. There was a rather inexpensive parking building close to the hotel.

    Amazing opportunity to stay in the tower of a castle adjacent to the main Imperial Castle complex in Nürnberg. Very comfortable four person room with its own toilet and shower room. I stayed with my 3 young sons (aged 10, 8 and 7) who loved being so close to all the major sights of Nürnberg.

    I had a fantastic experience staying at the castle hostel in Nuremberg. The location couldn’t have been better — right in the city center, close to shops, restaurants, and historical landmarks. It was the perfect spot for exploring the city. The hostel itself was incredibly clean, and the atmosphere was both charming and comfortable. The castle setting added a unique and memorable touch to my stay. The staff were exceptionally polite, helpful, and always available to answer any questions or offer recommendations.
