“Hotel Wiechmann consists of three canal houses turned into a simple family-run B&B offering the essentials. Comfortable, breezy rooms with modern bathrooms and a complimentary delicious breakfast. Proximity to the main attractions and shopping districts is a big selling point. ”

Hotel review

Antiques and knick-knacks set off the exposed beams and wood floors of these three carefully renovated canal houses. Steep stairs lead up to rooms, some with canal views, which though simply and traditionally furnished, offer central accommodation at a reasonable price. There is a charmingly quaint self service breakfast room and Grandfather Wiechmann’s portrait in the lobby is a reminder that the hotel has been in the family for 60 years. Only 6 minutes walk from the bus to Schiphzl. Excellent value for central location.
