Overall, it was not bad. The streets were a bit noisy much of the night, but eventually quieted down. Since it was pretty hot, the fan and open windows were nice. Also, it was great to have onsite parking. Right across from Fuggerai.

Nice little hotel - imagine a university dorm, and you’ll get a feel for it. It’s not a traditional type of hotel, the rooms are in a separate building. Perfectly comfy though - good shower, good heater, bed ok. I had to ask for extra blanket and I wish I had had an extra pillow. I also wish there had been water or a kettle or something in the room. There was shampoo and shower gel combined, but that’s it. Hair dryer too, but no tissues. Didn’t try breakfast. Communications were ok - they tried to be helpful with bus and tram info from Train station but they only gave me a part of the puzzle. In the end it’s not far, it’s 20 min in foot. If you want to take a bus it’s the 23 from the street to the left of the station (where Radastation is). Don’t go into Banhofstrassa, as the bus and trams there won’t take you to the hotel, which is on Fuggerei stop. You can get to Radaplatz and take the tram line 1, but for 3 euros you may prefer to walk. I was told taxi would have been 6 euros. The hotel is 3 min walk to Rathausplatz and there are lots of places to eat nearby. Anyway, for £55 a night it was fine. Don’t let your first impressions cloud your judgement.

The hotel is comprised of 3 separate buildings. Our room seemed a little expensive for basic facilities. No lift to upper floors in the building we were in. Breakfast was available at additional cost but we did not sample it so cannot comment further. On a positive note, the room was clean and serviced daily. Beds were comfortable. Bathroom lacked a shower curtain though.

The hotel is made up of three buildings, some of which may be converted apartments. I had a room in the attic of a 4 floor building like this with a tough climb up the stairs. Room was basic but clean. Pity the bed struts broke twice and that the window on to the street could only be fully opened, not 'cracked' to let air circulate. No a.c. but a fan was provided. Shower is over the bath but with no curtain or screen the water flooded the floor and needed a couple of towels to mop up after use. Very close to Fuggerei and bus/tram stops and within good walking distance of the old town and other historical sights. Some shops nearby.

Good value
This hotel is pretty good value, it's close to town, but not in the city center. The breakfast offer was very basic so we walked to a coffee shop on our way to the train station. The beds were comfortable and the staff friendly. The hotel is right next to a busy street with a tram on it but we didn't find our too loud.

This hotel is made up of 3 buildings about 4 blocks from the city center. They have free parking, so you can leave your car while visiting Augsburg. There is no elevator. Breakfast included hard boiled eggs, meats, cheeses, breafs, pastries, jams, very nice.

Lobby needs Reno.
Had to wait a long time in lobby which was unpleasant. Furniture stained, small and arguments right by us from reception. Would improve night's stay if they had decent linens. When I come to Germany once a year, I enjoy the true feather beds. Pillow's were lumpy foam.

breakfast was good, room were adequate, no complaints, would I stay here agin? Probably not. Not that there was anything wrong just I would pay a little more to go up a category. For the price the rooms and Hotel were great. No conplaints all worked well, and easy walk to old town. (10 minutes)

Positive experience
The standard of the hotel and the room was just about right for a 3 star place. Staff are very helpful and great to chat with, and the location is pretty good, most places of interest are within a walking distance. On the negative side, our room on the 3rd floor had a weak wi-fi signal, and there was no lift, so getting the suitcases up the stairs was tough. Overall though, I would recommend this place for a short stay.

So.......noisy!!
In fact the hotel is not that bad. The staff are friendly, helpful, room is OK & simple, location is great just 3 mins away from the town center and we've got the most powerful shower in bathroom, and the room rate is quite reasonable among all town/city during my 1 week journey in Germany. But our room situates onto a busy road & just 1 meter next to the tram rail and the tram line run 5.30am - 12.30pm it made us awake at 5.30am everyday and this was unbearable. TRY TO AVOID A ROOM FACING TO THE MAIN ROAD!

The hotel was comfortable and within walking distance of town. The town square has interesting features, and although the trolley passes right next to the hotel, it didn't seem to be a problem, because it stopped running at night.

The hotel staff is great, very helpful and friendly. While the hotel itself is clean, the area around the hotel is not that great. There were generally people just hanging around the hotel, even in the parking lot. Wifi was so erratic as to be not useable.

Parking problems
Cost effective stay, not too far from Munich, but arrive early if you expect to be able to park: there are only ten spaces available. Likewise, do not park too far from the entrance or you will find yourself boxed in the next morning, which is no good at all if you want an early departure. Augsburg itself appears to be very tight on parking, with most streets dug up for modernisation. The hotel is actually made up of three separate buildings facing each other around the extremely small car park. Two supermarkets opposite used by the local winos for cheap booze. Excellent breakfast at hotel for 5 Euros, but you may have to contend with very large and very hungry contract builder guests who have no shame in grabbing all the bread, cheese, ham and other tasty provisions despite other guests. Nevertheless, very polite and obliging reception, management and staff.

Hotel Jakoberhof
We went to Augsburg and stayed in this hotel to see the Christmas markets. The hotel was lovely, although slightly annoying as we had a large party and the hotel is split into different buildings, so we were all over the place. It is a short walk from the town centre (which really is beautiful) but there is a tram stop right outside the hotel which takes you to the Rathausplatz (where the Christmas markets were). We also too a train to Munich. They are very regular and fast, and you can walk to the train station, or change trams and get there pretty quickly. The breakfast was simple, but all very nice. The staff were very friendly and happy to give you help for anything, especially how to get to places. Everyone speaks fabulous English (we were disappointed that we didn't get much of a chance to practice our German!) All in all, a lovely holiday and would definitely go there again!

Jacoberhof - good location
We have stayed here twice, once last year (Aug 2010) and again this year (June 2011) and both times my only major complaint is that there were roadworks taking place right outside our window (begining at 6.30am every morning) on both visits. We therefore slept very badly for a week (despite using earplugs) and when we tried to complain, no offer to move rooms was made. I would stay here again as the rooms were very clean, the beds comfortable and the location of the hotel very convenient to central Augsburg - hopefully there will be no mini diggers at work outside our bedroom window the next time!
