poshpartizon 30/06/2017 17:48Giving Best Western a 4 star mainly due to the warm and welcoming reception I received from Boris at reception. He was glorious and made me feel like I was staying at a 5 star resort. I must say the ladies who manned the reception in the morning esp a tall blonde lady with the fringe could borrow a tip from Boris. Rooms are nice. No AC but guess we could get fans. Did not try the breakfast even though I paid for it. Loads of students or young people in the neighborhood which made the area lively, bicycles were available for use. Stayed five days on a business trip and will definitely be going back.
Great hotel, great value!
AkelaHon 03/06/2017 00:41After a previous disastrous visit to a Best Western two days earlier, I was rather apprehensive about this one but I needn't have worried. We were greeted warmly as soon as we stepped foot inside the hotel. Check in was quick and efficient and the receptionist ( should have got his name) was cheery and helpful all the way through.
The whole hotel is fresh and clean - it's looks quite newly renovated. The room was bright and airy. It had everything to make the stay pleasant except air conditioning - its only downside). Tea/coffee making facilities were provided along with a mini-bar and fridge. It also had a bath! Little touches like toiletries, sewing kit and shoe polish were also provided.
I asked for fresh milk and a fan for the room - these were provided with a smile and a cheery word. Help was also given about visiting the town centre ( which is a little far if you are on foot) and the restaurant next door.
As I said, there was no air conditioning in the room and the restaurant next door was very noisy way past 1:00 a.m. So it was. It possible to leave the windows open.
Breakfast was also included in the price of this room which was the same price as a previous Best Western which was filthy and had no breakfast. It was also €40 cheaper than a three star hotel we stayed in in the middle of nowhere the previous night.
A great hotel for the money!
Great value and very comfortable.
Jazzzzzzzon 17/10/2016 13:17We stayed at this Best Western during a drive from Florence to Copenhagen this summer. We didn't book in advance, as our aim was to get as far north as possible on the first day, so we had less driving the second day. Lots of summer traffic, queues and roadwork, so when we got north of Munich, we started longing for a lodging with a comfy bed where we could stretch out and rest.
I have only had to stop somewhere along the Autobahn due to fatigue once before, many years ago, and that was a very basic experience, so I had no expectations whatsoever...
We used TripAdvisor to see what options there was ahead of us. We tried to call a couple of places nearby, but they were either fully booked or closed for the night. Göttingen was still a bit further north, but we called, and they confirmed availability.
It was very easy to find. Just a 5-7 min drive from the Autobahn exit. Good parking facilities. Very pleasant and accommodating receptionist, quick and easy check-in (which we needed, as it was around midnight, and we had driven the whole day, and were exhausted...).
The room was paradise... I can't remember the room number, but it was basically just above the reception, and it was huge. Tastefully decorated with thick carpets and big, very comfy beds. I travel a lot, and a good mattress and a good pillow means everything to me when I'm tired...And this place passed the test...:-)
Quick shower, and we slept like babies until about an hour before the breakfast would finish. The selection is good. You will find scrambled eggs, sausages, bacon, cold cuts, yoghurt, bread, buns and croissants, some fruit and cereals. Everything is fresh and of very good quality, and we left the table very satisfied.
If I ever need to stop along the Autobahn in Germany, I will make sure to come back to BW am Papenberg. It was a short, but very pleasant stay.
Spacious, clean, and healthy walk to zentrum
NeedSheron 09/09/2016 20:54Stayed here two nights as part of a visit with our German exchange daughter. Stateside (US) Best Western is more of a motel; this was a small hotel with a typical European buffet breakfast included. University of Goettingen medical complex is across the street, center of city is a 10+ Euro taxi ride. Walking is feasible for the fit and hardy, buses run up and down the avenue plus bikes are available at the hotel. We were upgraded to a larger than standard room but lacking air conditioning, same as for many smaller German hotels, meant more street noise for rooms facing the avenue.
Good choice and valued or visitors to Goettingen, away from the craziness of the center.
