I booked two rooms at the same time at this hotel, which worked out great for our family. The hotel was located perfectly central to everything we wanted to see in Bamberg, and the underground parking was very convenient. Rooms were clean and felt newly remodeled. The breakfast buffet was nice, especially as one of our days was a holiday where many places were closed. The guy at check-in was super nice and helpful with everything that we needed!

I really enjoyed my overnight stay in this hotel. All of the rooms are identified by a colour (I was in the green room - an economy single), which was very comfortable & clean, with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The location is also very good - about a 20 min walk from the train station and 5 mins walk to the main area of the old town. An excellent choice for a solo traveller.

Bamberg is the epitome of everything Bavarian: half-timbered houses, medieval splendour and heavenly views. Due to its overwhelming beauty, it’s almost surreal to wander its cobbled streets and drink it all in.
Speaking of which, Bamberg has a surprising number of breweries and inns serving its signature Rauchbier. Most are dotted around the UNESCO World Heritage-listed, pedestrianised historic centre - once at the heart of the Holy Roman Empire. Emperor Henry II ordered construction of the 11th-century cathedral and is buried inside.
His empire’s prince-bishops had it good, and their former seats are scattered over the city. Their Old Palace courtyard has wooden balconies adorned with bright flowers. The New Residence is even grander, with opulent halls reflecting the rulers’ wealth. Michaelsberg Abbey – the bishops’ private monastery - is on one of Bamberg’s 7 hills, and on the highest is Altenburg Castle, another ruler’s abode.
The modern seat of power – the town hall – is the most incredible building of all. Spanning 2 bridges over the Regnitz River, it partly hangs above the fast-flowing water and is overlooked by the colourful Little Venice fishermen’s houses.
Booking.com’s Bamberg accommodation is as eclectic as the bishops’ residences, ranging from old town hotels to cheap apartments and guest houses near Maxplatz, home of the main Christmas market.
The Bamberg Symphony Orchestra is a top-class ensemble.
The Bamberg Symphony Orchestra is a top-class ensemble. See it if you can. Take the time to hike up to the Altenburg and then climb the tower for €1. It is well worth the effort for a great 360 degree view of bamberg and its seven hills. The Altstadt is also charming.

Bamberg is a nice compact town which can easily be walked...
Bamberg is a nice compact town which can easily be walked and all the people of Bamberg we encountered were friendly. It had been beautifully kept and so many interesting places to visit or just simply wander about the town and admire the town as a whole. We had an amazing lunch at Hotel Brudermühl just by chancing across it as we walked the town and the Glühwein was pretty good too.
Currently (Dec 2023) there is a lot of restoration and building works so a number of locations are not open or are partially open for visitors but there is still plenty to see and do. Domplatz with the Bamberg Cathedral and New Residence are definitely worth visiting - make sure you go into the rose garden for the view across Bamberg.
In warmer weather a walk up to St Michael’s should be done.
Best thing to do in Bamberg is to walk and just Criss-cross the streets and bridges so you can see the amazing Altes Rathaus in the middle of the river from all angles as well as all the wonderful little finds on your walk. Bamberg is also a little shopping-mecca so remember to put aside some euros to spend here.
Definitely allow 3 days for Bamberg if you want to see everything.

Bamberg was a great stop in between Berlin and Munich.
Bamberg was a great stop in between Berlin and Munich. The small-town vibes are great and the city is beautiful. There is a lot of shopping and food. The boat ride was enjoyable. This town is a perfect mix of enough to do, but smaller and easier to navigate than a big city.
We didn't particularly care for their 'Rauchbier' (smoked beer) although many like it. We had great street food (doener and bakery). There is also a good mix of bigger stores and cute small shops (Christmas stores, bookshops).

So much to see and do in such a relatively small space.
So much to see and do in such a relatively small space. So many little quaint corners to discover. So much history, so many good views. The people of Bamberg are really friendly and a wonderful laid-back atmosphere prevails, it's like all the visitors are happy. Sounds crazy but the air there is so fresh and clean in comparison to the Rhine-Main area where I live. The riverside has interesting cafes, bars, restos. The parks are lovely, the bus travel easy. I would avoid the RED BUS hop-on hop-off next time round. It's a bit of a rip-off. The Bamberg 3day ticket is a worthwhile investment.
Staff at this hotel is lovely. Very friendly. Breakfast was good and they kept it stocked. The actual hotel is neat- unique and fun. The breakfast area has such character. We really liked it and enjoyed our stay. Good location as well! You do have to walk from area parking garages, but it was very helpful that hotel staff sends a message with the area garages and how far of a walk for each. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it!
We could not get any closer to the Bamberger Dom than this hotel, absolutely fabulous location. The restaurant across the street serves a proper dinner as well as smoked beer! When we stayed there, the hotel did not serve breakfast so we went to the local bakery around the corner which we would not have wanted to miss for the life of it! We strolled a bit around the Dom and old town square before we continued our journey. Must go there again!
The location is nice and quiet, while the city center of Bamberg is nearby. It is a nice hike through a nice green environment..you can nicely bicycle too. The staff is nice and the rooms are spacious. The child liked the big garden with playyard very much. I am sure the beer garden and restaurant is good too, but I had not the oppertunitity to go there.
The breakfast was fine as well.
Hotel Nepomuk is in an outstanding location, on the river in the old town. With the windows open, you can hear the river flowing down through the old mill weir. Apart from the river, it is in a quiet location - there's no road or street noise. It's an easy walking distance to lots of interesting restaurants & breweries, but about 2km walk from the train station.
We needed an overnight in Bamberg and chose this hotel due to its location to the Altstadt. It was small and clean, simple for our needs. The parking was very easy with a location on site and it was free. They had an efficient system to obtain our key after normal hours when we arrived, we called the host who gave us a code to the lockbox outside the building.
This is a very nice hotel in the absolute heart of Bamberg's Old Town. Rooms were clean. Hotel has a lift. Very nice staff. Hotel has a restaurant and many others are nearby. Parking available for a fee but it looked like access to the garage may become more difficult as the tourists arrive. Breakfast was adequate but seemed basic for this hotel/restaurant.
Absolutely fantastic hotel with a great location. The rooms were incredible! Perfect blend of 1400s construction and modern amenities. Beautiful exposed beams and freshly remodeled bathrooms really set this hotel apart. The staff was great, everything was clean, I'm seriously beyond impressed with this property. Best part? Under 200€ for 2 nights.
The hotel is well located to explore the centre of Bamberg, The hotel is simple but has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The buffet breakfast was of exceptional quality, with all the food items of this typical German buffet being of delicious. Not the cheapest breakfast you could find, but worth every pfennig.
Lovely personnel, very responsive, open to any wishes and ready to take into account all considerations from the employer concerning the final invoice. I especially liked the simplicity and quality of the breakfast. I highly recommend this hotel, especially to those who visit Bamberg on business occasions.
Location Location Location. The hotel is super cute, in a greta location within a short walk to all that Bamberg has to offer. The staff was very friendly and helpful, making dinner reservations, calling a cab, etc. The breakfast was outstanding and better than we could have hoped for.
Had a 2 bedroom apartment on the higher floor - the amount of space was fabulous and the location of the property is perfectly central in old Bamberg. The colour changing lights and fixtures were an extra cool feature. Rooms also come with fans which is great for the hot summer days!
Very elegant hotel just a short walk to the old city and all sights, shopping and restaurants. Staff very welcoming and helpful—Sandra at front desk was perfect. Room very comfortable, and breakfast was exceptional. Easy walk from the train station.
The hotel is very clean, the rooms are comfortable and clean.
