Amazing hotel
on 29/08/2017 09:48I was in Leipzig for Business in August with a few colleagues. We can only recommend the Best West Hotel Leipzig City Center with highest regards.
Amazing location, customer service and rooms.
I will most definitely stay here again on my next trip to Leipzig.
Great value, just at the edge of the city center.
hirschel won 26/08/2017 21:49Just slightly off the beaten track, this is a great value hotel. Just 100m from the train station. Good buffet breakfast and evening cocktails. Helpful frontdesk. Parking in the courtyard. Five minutes walk to the city center. Even though its close to traffic, we did not hear a thing.
Very convenient hotel with lovely staff
Cardiactechon 14/12/2016 13:23I stayed here while attending a conference at the Congress Centre. We got off the train at Leipzig Hbf and this hotel couldn't have been closer - came out the doors and there it was straight in front of us. While the rooms aren't huge there was ample space along with a safe and tea/coffee making facilities. The bathroom is very compact! I'm pleased I'm not overweight or it would be quite a tight squeeze due to the toilet being angled alongside the sink but personally it wasn't an issue. The room was clean and on arrival it was a nice touch to have a note signed by the person who cleaned the room, a packet of haribo and complimentary large bottle of water which was very welcome after a day of travelling. The staff were all lovely. They put me to shame as my German is limited to hello, please and thank you but everybody spoke perfect English - making the trip a lot easier (but would be my own fault if nobody had spoke English - although I did have an app to try and get round this!!!). The breakfast was very tasty and included cold meats, cheese, pastries, cereal, fresh baked bread/bread rolls, sausage bacon and scrambled egg. This was a lovely start to the day. Walking into town was very simple from the hotel, as it's just round the corner. Likewise the distance from the train station made travelling to the congress centre simple. The breakfast room became the bar on evening so you could relax with a nice drink. In summary this hotel was perfect for my stay - clean room, lovely welcoming & friendly staff and positioned perfectly for both the city centre and transport links. Thank you for making my trip to Liepzig so pleasant.

2016 Conference in Leipzig Germany
A D Con 28/11/2016 15:09I stayed at the Best Western City Center for 4 nights while attending a conference in Leipzig Germany. The location is excellent for those arriving by DB Bahn Train from the Leipzig/Hallie airport. The hotel is just about 500 meters across the street from the main Train station in Leipzig (Leipzig Hbf). The “S5” train servicing this same station takes you from the Leipzig/Hallie Airport for only 4.5Euros.
On arriving at the Hotel around 1pm from an overnight flight, the receptionist was quite polite, but insisted that no rooms were ready and I must wait until the 3pm check-in. They did however volunteer to hold the luggage until a room became available. After walking around Leipzig for an hour I returned to the hotel and was informed that another room was available (not my original room on a high floor away from the street). This room was on the 2nd Floor facing the street (Room 204).
The service and staff of the hotel was always very graceful and delightful to chat with. The room was a bit smaller than expected. See photos of the views of room as you enter and from window back to entrance. Also there was a small desk just big enough for a laptop and a few notes. Lighting was excellent in the room and all appliances and outlets worked. The phone light would not go off and had to be covered over for the five days. The bathroom was a bit smaller than expected but adequate, however, the showers were very spacious for the smallish bathroom. The Tram outside the window could be a bit loud, but for most of the trip I was so exhausted that I never heard a sound. In addition the Hotel provided eye plugs on your pillow on arrival. The Sauna is a “MUST DO”. It was just perfect for the exhausted traveler. However it is only open from 5PM to 11PM.
Train Station across the street did provide a few exciting moments on Sunday night, when a soccer game was being played in the nearby stadium, and an extremely large number (over 20) of police vehicles arrived at the front of the hotel and around the Train Station. This only lasted about 40 minutes in total. Otherwise, the location of the hotel was quite safe for walking around during the day and late at night and the nearby train station did provide a few grocery shops for getting water and other essentials, as well as, hosting quite a few food stores where you can get anything from McDonalds to full 5 course dinners at a very reasonable price (less than 20Euros).
Overall, I would highly recommend this hotel for a stopover in Leipzig Germany. However, due to the train station across the street, try to get a room away from the front and as high as possible. This would significantly reduce the street noise.
