This place is a hidden gem, if you like a small hotel with lots of character. The staff were incredibly helpful and attentive. The rooms are rather small and spartan, but the section of the building we were in was built in 1345, so set your expectations accordingly. Underground parking for your is right next door and you can easily walk to everything, so it's very convenient. I will definitely stay there again next time!

This is a lovely hotel in old Nuremberg. Great location, at the edge of the pedestrian area, and close to the Dürer House and the Nuremberg castle. Clean and nicely set-up, with friendly staff. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Charming historic hotel, great location
The Hotel Elch is a quaint, charming hotel in a perfect location. The part we stayed in was the historic building with half timbered walls. There are stairs to get to the rooms, which are on the small side, but still comfortable. The staff was very helpful and friendly.

I stayed here for one weekend during my study abroad trip and absolutely loved it. The hotel is walking distance to many of the city’s main attractions, and the staff was beyond excellent. The room was small, but perfect for a solo traveller like myself, and was very clean. I would absolutely stay here again next time I visit Nürnberg!

Comfortable luxury and in a good location!
The hote is beautiful and has a balcony at the back of the hotel were you can enjoy a drink or food. We enjoyed our room overlooking the street. The rooms are spacious and clean. Recommend parking outside the city as the streets are small and google maps aren’t always correct. When we arrived it was spring festival which added to the atmosphere and liveliness of the city. Great location.

Loved this hotel right in the old town. Perfect for walking and exploring and close to the train. So much charm! Nuremberg is a magical City! Definitely will be back and would stay at hotel Elch again. If you are looking for a small, charming, unique hotel this is it. I loved hearing the church bells throughout the day! If you are looking for a slick hotel chain this is not for you.

Very nice hotel in a beautiful city. Easy walk to just about all the main attractions in the old part of the city. Very friendly staff that assisted us greatly. Thank you for adding to our amazing stay in Nuremberg! We'll make this our place to stay in the future if/when we come back to Nuremberg.

A good practical hotel with loads of character
This hotel works surprisingly well for a business trip, and will all its history has bags of character. The staff are obviously proud to work for one of the oldest hotels in the world, and convey that in their engagement with their visitors. My room was intelligently laid out, given the constraints of the building. I visited during a heatwave, and the room had a portable air-conditioning unit, which was effective. There is a really good organic Thai restaurant in the same building. But it is popular, so you will need to book in high season. One thing to watch out for is that the free broadband has quite low bandwidth, so for serious work you will probably need to use your phone's data connection. This hotel is in the center of a city, so don't expect it to be quiet. I didn't find the noise from bars and restaurants intrusive, even when I had the windows open for the heat. Definitely don't aim for a lie in though. The hotel is close to St Sebald's, and no one can sleep through the bells at 07:00!
