Hotel am Rathaus

Sijainti hyvä. Autolle oli oma autohalli.

We didn't know anything at all about Augsburg and just needed a reasonably priced place to stay before the final leg of our drive from Frankfurt to the Oktoberfest in Munich. We didn't have any particular expectations but were very pleasantly surprised. The hotel is perfectly located, slap bang in the centre of this very pretty and tourist-friendly town, easy walking distance from all the attractions. The staff were really brilliant, friendly and helpful and full of suggestions. Andy even went so far as to refuse to allow us to clean up the bottle of red wine which we dropped and smashed while unpacking in the pristine parking garage under the hotel, and cheerily went off to do it himself despite our protestations. The hotel is not swanky or stylish but in my view, it's something better. It's scrupulously clean, friendly, convenient, comfortable and reasonably priced. It has a well-lit mirror at which to apply make-up and a socket in front of another mirror where appliances can be plugged in and thus hair styled (it is amazing how few hotels are aware of the hairstyling thing...) :) The hotel has excellent free wifi (vital when trying to arrange a massive meet-up at the Oktoberfest) and it's 58 minutes from central Munich by car. What else does one need when passing through? Oh yes, do warm up for Oktoberfest with a traditional Bavarian meal at the excellent Ratskeller Restaurant right next door and stagger the 20 meters back, with no stress at all.

The lift is a little complicated to work out - make sure Andy or one of the other staff stand over you the first time you use it...
