The hotel is in walking distance to the train station which is very convenient if you arrive and/or leave by train.
The hotel is close to the center of the city so you can explore right from your hotel.
The receptionist and the staff were all very friendly and welcoming.

This hotel was a good value for the price. It was not fancy, but attractive and clean, and the staff was helpful. The location was convenient, although not scenic, but close to everything. The breakfast was very good with lots of choices. I would stay there again.

City Hotel has a lovely staff that serve a hearty breakfast. The location is perfect for exploring Freiburg. The underground parking is also very convenient. The rooms are not air conditioned and can be very warm so we had to keep the windows open all night and put up with lots of noise from passersby and delivery trucks early in the morning. The mattresses and pillows are well past replacement time. The uncomfortable beds and noise hindered our enjoyment of this unique and beautiful city.

Staff, was fabulous,rooms clean nicely sized. Hairdryer was broken. No biggy. Great breakfast, easy parking. We where able to walk everywhere!
The ONLY downside is, that you are near the university. Lots of students, lots of parties, delivery trucks starting delayed at 0500. Earplugs where provided. Also just close the windows and metal blinds. Great little place!
