I spent three idyllic days at this wonderful Hotel. Every person on the staff was friendly. The atmosphere was warm and hospitable. My room was excellent. Firm new mattress. New bathroom with tub and standup shower. Crisp pressed linens. Tasteful oriental rug. 18th century etchings. The dinners are outstanding. What a Chef they have! Excellent wine selection. The breakfasts were... more

We have just returned from our first Bayreuther Festspiele. We stayed at the Goldener Anker for ten wonderful days. The room and service were impeccable as was the restaurant. The stars of the "show" were the staff and the owner who could not have been more helpful and appropriately friendly. This is more a home than a hotel. We compared... more

I was staying here second year in row and am quite satisfied with accomodation. That's place for old style Wagner lovers - bit stiff and magic. Service is attentive, breakfast excellent (no self-service), accomodation non-standart, on every corner you can feel hundred years of history. Nevertheless here is internet available for affordable price which usually isn't case in business hotels. more

We spent eight wonderful days at the Hotel Golden Anchor in November while visiting relatives in Bayreuth.. We were catered to taken care of by the excellent staff and the innkeeper Frau Graf-Handel. Our family booked the entire hotel for the weekend to celebrate a 50th birthday one evening and a 25th wedding anniversary the next. Both nights the dinners... more

The furnishings were antique and very classy. I would highly recommend this hotel, especially for those looking for a romantic getaway. more

After two visits to the Wagner Festival and stays at this hotel, I can think of NO OTHER place that I would rather be for the week. Of course, after 250 years, it doesn't have the latest fixtures like the Adlon (Berlin) or Hyatt (Beijing) - but lots of plastic, chrome, glass et al do not always mean excellent service... more

This was a great place to stay, very historic, very classy. They leave a bookmark by the bed with names of many famous people who have stayed there. Good breakfast. A little pricier than where we would usually stay though. more

I have stayed in this charming, family-owned hotel, parts of which date from the 1700s, on both of my visits to Bayreuth for the Wagner festival (11 years apart) and I was extremely happy there on both visits. The hotel is in a beautiful part of town and walking distance from the Wagner museum and, if you are a good... more
