This is a wonderful hotel that makes any visit to the Bayreuth Wagner Festival extremely special. Little touches include the little note at breakfast announcing the forthcoming performance, the apéro in the afternoon before a shuttle-bus trip to and from the Festspielhaus and the option to dine after a performance. Even seeing the music on the stave above the beds is charming.
Jeremy, 2-night trip

Great for the Bayreuth Wagner festival

Excellent venue. Always clean and tidy. Breakfast good. Modest free gym and sauna. Convenient for the town. 30 min walk to Festspielhaus or bus provided.

10/10 Exceptional

We were there for the annual Opera Festival. Many of the guests were there for the festival also. The hotel arranged bus transportation (for a small fee) for everyone, and each night had a champaign get together before departing. The breakfast buffet was wonderful, and the staff was very helpful in every way. The room only had 2 twin beds, so that was the only negative.

In Bayreuth for Festspiele.

Good room, but no refridgerator. Good breakfast. Fairly close to old town. Shuttle bus available for Festspielhaus events..Restaurant offers dinner after Festspielhaus events (requires reservation). Parking available (at charge).

Christian, 1-night trip

Cute clean town

The hotel is well taken care of, but the room was a bit dated and quite high noise from the AC. The town is cute and clean, well worth a visit.
Göran, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Room and bathroom clean but rather dated. Woodchip wallpaper painted yellow. Crack in one wall. Furniture a bit dated. A bit like staying in student accommodation from 30 years ago. Bar and reception staff very helpful and efficient. Didn’t eat breakfast in the hotel because it was fairly pricey and alternatives within walking distance. Hotel was in a good location.

Annmarie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Of the six hotels I stayed in during my trip, this was by far the best. It was also the least expensive: a great deal for a place this nice. The staff was very helpful, the breakfast buffet was worth the price, and the room was quiet and comfortable. I recommend it highly

1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hotel Rheingold was a very nice, clean and safe local hotel. It was easy walking distance from the train station (19 minutes) and just across the main road to Old Town Bayreuth. We walked to the Festspielhaus and only took about 20 minutes. We were in Bayreuth to see all the Richard Wagner history. This hotel was a perfect hotel for easy navigation and close walks to all the museums and attractions. It is also a 5 minute walk from the Maisel's Bier-Erlebniswelt...Great local beer!! We certainly recommend this hotel.
Denise, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

After eight hours travelling to Bayreuth, my welcome was less than friendly. This undoubtedly coloured my view of the rest of my short stay.
Mark Stephen, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very nice staff. Friendly and professional. Going above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. Very helpful with helping me organize my trips to the Bayreuth festival as well to the museums. Nice breakfast and snacks. Nice cocktail atmosphere before the opera. They run the place very well. I wish they have a restaurant for lunch & dinner.
