Reviews for Hotel Poseidon
Review 1：-- Only two Check-in Times per Day!! -- staff not very friendly -- no Iron Board available -- noisy at night
Review 2：++ location close to city center ++ good breakfast
Review 3：The Wifi doesn't work at all don't even try. They never offeredany explanation about it. No room service, spare toiletries and becareful to check your email with the booking since the reception is openonly until 20:00 and then you have to go pick up the keys somewhereelse. Not cool
Review 4：Good location. That's all
Review 5：Very noisy hotel, you hear all outside noise. Rooms are outdated and need urgent renovation. New windows would be nice to reduce the noise levels
Review 6：Breakfast is good and the staff is friendly and helpful
Review 7：The owner don't speak English well, so not much info can get from them, but it doesn't matter much, I've done my homework.
Review 8：My main purpose is to visit Liszt's museum and Wagner's house, and visit Liszt's grave, every of this is within walking distance. Wonderful. And the Greek restaurant serve good food.
Review 9：No air-conditioning, so window had to be open in August heat. Very noisy with traffic and night drinkers. No place to fix shower-head. No lounge and could not sit in bar on wet afternoon as it was closed at 2.30PM. TV very poor - picture quality dreadful.
Review 10：Central location.
Review 11：Noise at night was bad, from traffic on the main road and partying neighbours, often into the small hours. Lack of air conditioning left no option but to leave windows open in very hot weather. Reception was part time and ordering taxis unreliable.
Review 12：The staff were friendly and breakfast reasonable - coffee good.
Review 13：The only problem was a bit of noise from the street. As the weather is hot, we needed the window opened. If we could have closed the window, the noise would have been less of a problem.
Review 14：Clean nice room. Good breakfast. Close to the old city center and not far from the Festspielhaus.
Review 15：Reception is closed from 1400-1700. I emailed the day before about check in and was told check in was from 1300 but nothing about the closing times so I turned up to a locked door!
Review 16：Easy walk to old town and all major attractions. Room was spacious and comfortable. I had a room toward the back of the hotel which was fairly quiet at night. Good variety of food at breakfast. Friendly staff.
Review 17：The reception was unprofessional and rude. We had a street side room which was very noisy.
Review 18：The room was small, but clean. Comfortable bed. Breakfast was simple, fresh and tasty.
Review 19：My window was open everything smelled like garlic. Cold water only in the bathroom. I ran the shower for 15 min, no warm water. Closed the window, kitchen smell remained. Found old hair in the bathroom floor Elevator super dirty.
Review 20：Rooms are a bit on the small side but perfectly adequate for the price. WIFI was fast enough for my needs. Breakfast is also perfectly adequate. Excellent location - very close to the old town.
Review 21：The bathroom of my room was without windows and even without any ventilation system. Moreover, the rooms are not very well soundproofed, thus the comfort of sleep was disturbed until late in the night.
Review 22：The breakfast with (among many other things) feta cheese and smoked salmon was a pleasant surprise. Moreover, the greek restaurant at the reception is very good and traditional. The location is pretty near the city center, the main bus station, and 15 minutes walking distance from the main train station. The staff is helpful.
Review 23：The breakfast was anything but inspiring. Very unhealthy and no possibility to get different food. Dust under beds.
Review 24：The location was very convenient to explore central Bayreuth. Parking was good in public car park (under roof).
Review 25："Entrance" to shower in bath was tight. Its a good thing I´m a size 8 ;-). Cleaning ladies forgot to empty paper basket (two lozenges in basket). The textile bed skirting was askew, which gave the room a shabby appearance when first entered.
Review 26：Convenience and value. Breakfast at a small surcharge was worth every single cent. I loved the mozzarella cheese and feta for breakfast. Excellent idea. Parking garage (extra cost) with hotel access was ideal.
Review 27：Some street noise during night.
Review 28：Breakfast was good. Owners friendly to cyclists. I was allowed to park bike in safe place. Hotel is located near Main Radweg and other bicycle routes.
Review 29：The two beds were separated automatically if we moved a little while sleeping so we have to find a cable and fix the legs of the two single beds. Otherwise one of us would have falled down between the two beds. The room was sold as a double bed but two single was put together. Sometimes there was a kind of smell in the bathroom but it was clean.
Review 30：The location is very good. Everything is in walking distance. The staff is helpful and the breakfast was really delicious and fresh. WiFi worked most of the time. The room was really a good size, there was even a nice sofa too in the room.
Review 31：The room was somewhat cold (mid-November), which in turn made the sheets child. It took a while for the heating to warm up the room after I turned it on. It would have been nice if they had turned on the heating an hour or two before my arrival so that the room would be warm. The sheets were small for a tall person.
Review 32：The room was large and comfortable. The hotel staff were willing to accommodate me despite informing them that I would be checking in much later than the normal check in time. The prices are probably the best among the top hotels in Bayreuth. I have stayed at this hotel on my business visits in the last 7 years, even before the change of name (was formerly hotel Schlemmerland). Overall satisfied and I hope to try out their restaurant in future.
Review 33：A disaster. The hotel is on a high traffic road so there is lot's ofnoise but the rooms to the back are not facing the road. We specificallyasked for a quiet room but the owners were not willing to give us such aroom. He was very rude and aggressive. The rest of the staff was ok.However, I will never ever go to this hotel again.
Review 34：Difficulty in opening windows. Although all rooms are 'non-smoking' there was a strong odour of smoking in the room on arrival !
Review 35：Excellent breakfasts Ease of early check-out at 5-30 AM(left key in unlocked room the bill having already been paid prior to arrival)
Review 36：- Poor wifi, very difficult to connect - Room very clean but stark - Across the ring road from the historic district, not in it. Nevertheless good value
Review 37：- Clean room, good value for money - Staff speak little english but are friendly and helpful - Nice 30 min stroll to the Festspielhaus - Breakfast good value for EUR 4 - Just across the ring road from the historic district

Review 39：Close to the City centre.
Review 40：My window could not be closed and the street noise was just too much. The staff is very unfriendly and lacks any of the usual behavior and customs that you expect of a hotle.
Review 41：The Hotel Rooms are nice and fairly large. Rooms are well cleaned.

Review 90：Location where the hotel is it helps us for the reason we were there. Was clean and comfortable. It was value for money we payed. Friendly staff.
Review 91：My room was a bit too noisy from the street. Also a lamp on the desk would not be a bad idea (I had to do some work and it was maybe too dark).
Review 92：The hotel is nicely located right in the center of the town. I also found the underground parking lot quite convenient and not too costly.
Review 93：A little choice in the breakfast. Bathroom bad lighting, only above themirror and not much. Staff not friendly. I asked for an iron to iron myblouse. Woman says it is ok, but when I really needed it a man came tome and was discussing with the female colleague and I did not get theiron. Parking is not for free and bad indicated where you can park.Costs not really high but extra costs. After 2300 hours no drinks can beordered, no coffee nothing. The hotel is on the back of a restaurant soordering a drink should not be a real problem.

Review 99：Overpriced . 2 star hotel with 4 star pricing. Paid €190 Worth €50 No fire safety information in room No designated reception Reception staff missing a lot of the time No phone in room Tiny old fashioned bath room and inaccessible shower Noisy pathway outside Unfriendly check in clerk German and Greek only spoken-no English spoken Hostel/backpackers location. Outrageous cost - purely because of the festival .Worst hotel experience in 5 years
Review 100：Bedding was clean Close to centre Breakfast was fine Internet access ( included)
Review 101：Low on charm. The owner needs to smile and engage with hisclientele more.
Review 102：Price is what you would expect during the Festival. Great centrallocation.
Review 103：The room was fitted with essentials, was clean and had a decent bed, buta bedside lamp and some decorations would have been nice...the roomwasn't exactly 'gezellig', but since I didn't spend muchtime there it was perfect for my needs.
Review 104：Very clean, very good breakfast for price/quality. Hotel was basicbut good, small room but to be expected for last minute booking duringFestspiele - was expecting the broom closet, so it was a nice surpriseto have a normal room. Very well situated close to the centre, staff waswonderfully helpful and nice.
Review 105：position on busy road, traffic noise with window open couldn't find control for air con hard pillow good duvet, but no sheet only a shower, no bath price high for festival
Review 106：very good breakfast friendly staff bed double glazing other food and drink availability at busy time clean towels pleasant dining room with tables outside in square rooms cleaned promptly
Review 107：Quite noisy. The traffic noise didn't bother me, but there was a lot of noise throughout the night from people outside talking very loudly.
Review 108：Perfect location for easy access to railway station and Festspielhaus. Good value for money. Very clean.
Review 109：The shared shower room dose not have proper drainage. The shower water instantly inundates the floor and you have to stand in the middle of the flood of dirty water even containing dirty water from the previous shower taker. It is terrible. Moreover, I woke up in the middle of the night with huge rock'n roll music sound coming from nighbor room at around 2:30 at night which lasted until at arount 5:00 in the morning. It seemed that this neighbor room was occupied by the worker of the restaurant on the ground floor. No sleep afterwards. Just disgusting experience! I can't hardly recommend this hotel to the others.
