We didn’t have much initial expectation coming to Bamberg, but this hotel far exceeded what we expected from our short getaway. We are thankful to choose and stay two nights at this hotel. The hotel was well situated and is walking distance from most touristy sights. The hotel breakfast is divine (the morning sekt added to this) and we have nothing but praises for the breakfast considering the fair price - it really improved our experiences at the hotel. Room service was provided on both days, which is often not the case for short stays (it is a rather common practice to omit guest who stays 1-2nights from tidying their rooms). Cleanliness was impeccable here too. We also found the hotel staff/reception to be especially warm and kind during our visit.
This hotel is centrally located in Bamberg, 200 metres from the pedestrian area and 650 metres from the cathedral. A gym, 24-hour reception and free WiFi are offered at the ibis Styles Bamberg.

I really enjoyed my overnight stay in this hotel. All of the rooms are identified by a colour (I was in the green room - an economy single), which was very comfortable & clean, with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The location is also very good - about a 20 min walk from the train station and 5 mins walk to the main area of the old town. An excellent choice for a solo traveller.

Bamberg is the epitome of everything Bavarian: half-timbered houses, medieval splendour and heavenly views. Due to its overwhelming beauty, it’s almost surreal to wander its cobbled streets and drink it all in.
Speaking of which, Bamberg has a surprising number of breweries and inns serving its signature Rauchbier. Most are dotted around the UNESCO World Heritage-listed, pedestrianised historic centre - once at the heart of the Holy Roman Empire. Emperor Henry II ordered construction of the 11th-century cathedral and is buried inside.
His empire’s prince-bishops had it good, and their former seats are scattered over the city. Their Old Palace courtyard has wooden balconies adorned with bright flowers. The New Residence is even grander, with opulent halls reflecting the rulers’ wealth. Michaelsberg Abbey – the bishops’ private monastery - is on one of Bamberg’s 7 hills, and on the highest is Altenburg Castle, another ruler’s abode.
The modern seat of power – the town hall – is the most incredible building of all. Spanning 2 bridges over the Regnitz River, it partly hangs above the fast-flowing water and is overlooked by the colourful Little Venice fishermen’s houses.
Booking.com’s Bamberg accommodation is as eclectic as the bishops’ residences, ranging from old town hotels to cheap apartments and guest houses near Maxplatz, home of the main Christmas market.
Bamberg is a nice compact town which can easily be walked...
Bamberg is a nice compact town which can easily be walked and all the people of Bamberg we encountered were friendly. It had been beautifully kept and so many interesting places to visit or just simply wander about the town and admire the town as a whole. We had an amazing lunch at Hotel Brudermühl just by chancing across it as we walked the town and the Glühwein was pretty good too.
Currently (Dec 2023) there is a lot of restoration and building works so a number of locations are not open or are partially open for visitors but there is still plenty to see and do. Domplatz with the Bamberg Cathedral and New Residence are definitely worth visiting - make sure you go into the rose garden for the view across Bamberg.
In warmer weather a walk up to St Michael’s should be done.
Best thing to do in Bamberg is to walk and just Criss-cross the streets and bridges so you can see the amazing Altes Rathaus in the middle of the river from all angles as well as all the wonderful little finds on your walk. Bamberg is also a little shopping-mecca so remember to put aside some euros to spend here.
Definitely allow 3 days for Bamberg if you want to see everything.

Bamberg was a great stop in between Berlin and Munich.
Bamberg was a great stop in between Berlin and Munich. The small-town vibes are great and the city is beautiful. There is a lot of shopping and food. The boat ride was enjoyable. This town is a perfect mix of enough to do, but smaller and easier to navigate than a big city.
We didn't particularly care for their 'Rauchbier' (smoked beer) although many like it. We had great street food (doener and bakery). There is also a good mix of bigger stores and cute small shops (Christmas stores, bookshops).

So much to see and do in such a relatively small space.
So much to see and do in such a relatively small space. So many little quaint corners to discover. So much history, so many good views. The people of Bamberg are really friendly and a wonderful laid-back atmosphere prevails, it's like all the visitors are happy. Sounds crazy but the air there is so fresh and clean in comparison to the Rhine-Main area where I live. The riverside has interesting cafes, bars, restos. The parks are lovely, the bus travel easy. I would avoid the RED BUS hop-on hop-off next time round. It's a bit of a rip-off. The Bamberg 3day ticket is a worthwhile investment.

In our mission to travel around Germany, Bamberg did not dissapointed. It was exceptionally beautiful. Me and my husband were not expecting for this city to be as beautiful as it is. It has a lot of culture, delicious food and beer. Also the people in restaurants were really friendly!
I would definitely recommend for people to visit Bamber, but consider that is a VERY touristy place, so arrange your trip with time.
Once there you will be able to walk to most locations
Best location in Bamberg. Excellent breskfast. We got a solid big room and toilette. Very good price especially in Christmass markt time. Yes if you have heavy luggage be ready to take it one floor over narrow stairs and the rooms could have newer furniture (but the furniture is no way critically old) , but that is minor compared to positives. I booked here because Nuernberg was too expensive in Christmass-time, but it ended uncomparably better than anything I could imagine in Nuerberg. After 22h it was also quiet.
The staff was very friendly and made sure everything is fine. They called me before arrival to make sure I know how to check in even after Check in hours, they provided a detailed answer and suggestion where to park.
The room and hotel was modernized where possible to a good standard, while keeping the charm of the old building alive.
The best thing about the hotel is the location, it's a comparably quiet area for being so close to the center of the city.
Great apartment in the best location. It was spotless clean, very comfortable and well equipped. Everything's new and of quality. The hosts were really friendly and professional. They provided anything we could possibly need and made check-in and check-out super easy. There's not a single thing, we could complain about. Our stay was a bliss. We hope to return next time we visit Bamberg.
Beautifully appointed room, though quite small. Finishings and colour palate were lovely. Staff were very kind and helpful. Breakfast was superb, excellent perk. Also, the option to forego housekeeping and receive a complimentary drink per guest was a great incentive. Hotel was a quick walk to historic Bamberg. We loved our stay here.
The location is beautiful and really quiet. The hotel is nicely decorated, not too modern and not too big and has a nice outdoor area for eating. The staff were helpful and spoke good English. Bamberg itself is stunning. There is a bus right to the door otherwise there are riverside walks to Altstadt
We loved this hotel. It was charming. We had the family room and I couldn’t have asked for a better set up. The staff was super nice and it includes a complimentary breakfast that was superb. It is perfectly located to explore old Bamberg. I would definitely stay here again.
Hotel is very good located, close to Main Railway Station and just 20 minutes walk from old Town.
Big plus for parking with a price just 8 euros per night. We could stay after check out till the afternoon. Good hotel for 1-2 nights.
A nice old German hotel and we were pleasantly surprised by the spacious modern room. Excellent shower in the bathroom. Breakfast was also excellent with fresh produce. The hotel is close to the centre of Bamberg.
The hotel is very new, modern, and clean. The staff is very nice and helpful. One very important plus point is that they have air conditioning for summer time. Highly recommend for people to visit Bamberg.
