Hotel is used for a lot of conferences, and bus tours, so is big, and has lots of rooms. Having said that, the facilities are all fine and well maintained, and our room was clean, comfortable, and well appointed. Breakfast and dinner in the hotel was ecellent too. Only minor issue is that its a bit of a walk to the town centre (15-20 mins), but there isn't a lot to see or do there anyway, so no big deal. Parking is easy and straightforward

Property was OK. We had a two room suite, one of which did not have its own air conditioning. Breakfast was good. The town of Bayreuth was really charming.

A good place to stay

A comfortable stay in a large, spacious room, large bathroom with a bathtub (and toilet - a small minus in my eyes), location w/o any specific pros or cons, not exactly in the centrum, but not far from it, not far from the railway station. We have chosen the option "no cleaning of the room" in exchange for a one-drink voucher per person/per night.

Expensive

Good location but very expensive during the Opera season for what you get. The room was dark, gloomy and did not have what you would expect a hotel at this price to have,. Towels were paper thin and none of the extras like Shampoos were available. The hotel itself appeared to be a converted warehouse of sorts and old fashioned and tired.

Great for Wagner Fans

The Arvenna Congress is located within about a 20 minute walk of the Festspielhaus, venu for the annual Wagner festival in the summer. The hotel also runs a courtesy van to take guests to the performance and pick them up afterwards. The desk staff was fluent in English, knowledgeable about the festival and maintained a board with "ticket for sale/want to buy" information. The room was one of the few we've stayed in in Europe with real air conditioning. The breakfast room is huge and impersonal. The wait staff is not particularly attentive, but the food is plentiful and good. We'd definitely return to the hotel if we're fortunate enough to attend the Wagner festival in the future.

Wir waren privat als Paar für 3 Übernachtungen im Hotel. Der Empfang war freundlich und der Check in erfolgte schnell. Unser Zimmer war sauber und insgesamt ok, allerdings sind Einrichtung und Ausstattung schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Das Frühstück war zufriedenstellend, das Personal dort ausgesprochen freundlich, aber insgesamt ist der Buffett- und Frühstücksbereich für ein Hotel dieser Größenordnung (196 Zimmer) viel zu klein und eng ausgelegt. Dadurch war es sehr "rummelig" während der gesamten Frühstückszeit (wir haben unterschiedliche Zeiten ausprobiert). Die Sauna war leider defekt, war aber auch auf der Website angekündigt. Das Hotel liegt knapp 15 Fußminuten zur Innenstadt.
