Naja... well.. maybe not again

Party guests who come back to a hotel at three pm happens but if the registration can not shut them down and they are two floors away and you think someone yells in your ear this points to skinny walls. Beautiful wake up through the shower next door in the morning...

The rooms are ok but simple - I wonder how this gets a real four star status in my book. A TV and restaurant does not make something a four star does it ?

Room was clean, spacious bathroom but not making up for inherent noise level.

Decent accommodations and helpful staff not enough parking and one of the worlds worst Internet services

Decent accommodations and not a helpful staff, not enough parking and one of the worlds worst Internet services. And if you get a room at the end of the hall go, I'm getting Wi-Fi ever. I have complained to the desk many times and they all say you don't that's fine. As a basic business hotel it's not a bad choice and if it's in the summer you will need air-conditioning and it's the only hotel in the entire city that has air-conditioning. Don't expect to find parking in the late evening get there early if you have a car park. Or they tell you just drive around and find place on the street somewhere. Breakfasts are very good and come with the room. Perking you get charge for daily sometimes even if you don't use it. Check your bill breakfast comes with your room

Nice accommodations

If you are looking for something charming then this might not be the hotel for you. Accommodations were nice and clean. You can pay a little extra in the warmer months for air conditioning, which was a big plus for us. The breakfast bar is wonderful with lots of choices. The bar off the lobby is open during weeknights only, but well worth a stop in for a cocktail. The bartender is a delight! The only major complaint I had was the internet service. It was almost impossible to keep a connection! Hotel is conveniently located to the pedestrian area and plenty of restaurants.

I stayed there 4 times in 15 days

If "quaint" and "old world charm" are important to you, the Best Western in Giessen is not for you ... other than the German being spoken, this BW could have been anywhere. That said, it was clean, efficient and dependable. A great breakfast came with the room and with parking virtually impossible on the streets, the fee for parking was very reasonable. Plus it was close to where my son lived, so it was convenient for me. With Giessen as my base for a 2-week trip, I stayed @ the BW 4 times and saw no reason to change hotels. One small thing I didn't like was having to pay extra for A/C.

Unlikely to stay again

First night discovered pillows hadn't been changed and smelt very badly of someone else's previous visit. No restaurant for evening food. On busy main road so very noisy. No air conditioning. Strange smell in the hallways. Not in the nicest part of the town. If you don't need to get too much sleep, and just want somewhere good value to stay, this is probably the hotel for you.
