What guests think

Art Hotel draws travelers with its central old-town location and historic charm, offering spacious rooms, but its heritage building means no elevator, some shared bathrooms, frequent street and bar noise, and access challenges for those with mobility needs.

Rooms are generally large and comfortable. Cleanliness and maintenance are mixed, ranging from very clean spaces to reports of dirty shared showers and some wear. Service is often friendly with code-based entry, though a few guests faced unattended reception or late access codes; no on-site breakfast, but eateries nearby help. Overall, it suits flexible travelers who value atmosphere over amenities.

Angesichts der Denkmalschutzauflagen wurde das Beste daraus gemacht. Problem ist die fehlende Parkmöglichkeit.

I loved this hotel - full of character, with spacious rooms, and right in the heart of the beautiful old town (10 mins walk from the station). The only downside was the absence of lift.

DasHotel liegt mitten in der Altstast, zentraler geht nicht. Das Zimmer ist sehr groß und liebevoll eingerichtet. Da die Fenster nur Einfachverglasung haben und die Straße Kopfsteinpflaster, war es sehr laut, auch schon sehr früh morgens. Ansonsten ist es eher ein Hostel als ein Hotel, Zimmerservice gibt es wohl nicht. Aber das hat uns überhaupt nicht gestört. Ein Aufzug ist nicht vorhanden, aber das wußten wir vorher und sind mit entsprechend kleinem Gepäck angereist. Für einen kurzen Städtetripp ist die Unterkunft wegen der Lage zu empfehlen.

Older building in the heart of Passau, making it very easy to explore the city on foot. Many eating establishments nearby, but be aware that many are closed on Mondays and/or Tuesdays. Note that there is NO elevator and the reception desk is on the “2nd” floor from street level. Our room with “private” bathroom was on the “3rd” floor. This was a bit difficult for us 70/80 year olds to lug our suitcases up and down the old stairs! Also the bathroom was not ensuite, but all the way down the hallway, which made it inconvenient for the night time visits. Our room was large, with a writing table and sofa. We had to turn up the heat in the room, since in was not “preheated” for us. Overall a nice place to stay- for younger folks!

Hotel in altem Haus. Zum Teil denkmalgeschützt, was aber keine Entschuldigung für Unsauberkeit ist. Der Blick aus dem Fenster zeigt eine ehemalige Terrasse mit z.T. vermoderten Trümmern. WC und Duschen sind auf dem Gang. Nachts sehr umständlich. In den Duschen liegen zerknüllte Handtücher auf dem Boden. Da sind 120 Euro für ein Doppelzimmer schon abendteuerlich.

Location

Central in the old town and walkable to sights, cafes, bars, and ship docks. The trade-off is frequent street and nightlife noise.

Great location. Set in refurbished historical house so might not suit people with mobility issues. If you're happy with this the proximity to tourist sights and dining options combined with the reasonable tariff make it a good choice.
