About

Romantically nestled in the historical old town of Nuremberg, the hotel with a half-timbered annex is located close to the Weißer Turm U-Bahn (underground) station and a 10-minute walk from the main station. The Hotel am Jakobsmarkt has been lovingly renovated and invites its guests to relax and enjoy its soothingly furnished accommodations. The extensive breakfast buffet can provide a great start to your day. Later you can relax at the hotel bar. Our hotel has free WiFi throughout the building. The hotel is just a stone’s throw from the medieval castle-quarter of the city, and a short walk from many of the famous attractions of Nuremberg, with its many museums, fountains and churches.

    Pros +

    • Location within walking distance of the major attractions and transportation venues
    • Everything was great including the breakfast and parking (very safe, in the yard of the hotel and free of charge). The location is perfect, in the centre.
    • Great location for the Christmas market and city center activities. Easy walk to the main train station. Modern room with simple amenities. Make sure you book a meal at the nearby Zum Gulden Stern.

    Cons -

    • Internet access was limited
    • Only one thing which I would improve - to add the 2nd pillow. But that's the minor issue.
    • Typical hard European mattress. Unfortunately, the interior parking lot became an echo chamber for party people at night, and we woke up to someone drunkenly vomiting in the wee hours.

    Breakfast was good and restaurant staff was good too. One front office staff was a gentleman who really helped me with my requests related to comforts (extra quilt was provided). He spoke good English too. Nice location in old town in a quiet area with many nice traditional restaurants and access to Metro and closer to main Railway station.

    Room had issues with water leakage which hotel staff couldnt fix during my stay. Front office staff was not friendly and English language fluency was missing. Single room is too small. I would'nt go for Single room. Room rate also was high may be due to Advent season.

    I was looking for a reasonably priced hotel in Nuremberg (under €140/night) for the Christmas Market. We originally stayed in an Airbnb outside the center, but it was so noisy that we had to leave — and we ended up at this hotel last minute. Honestly, I’m very glad we did.I travel a lot and I don’t say this lightly: it’s really hard to find a place that is both quiet and has a comfortable bed — and for me, that’s the most important thing. If you sleep badly during a trip, it ruins the whole experience. Here, the room was peaceful and the bed was genuinely comfortable, so we slept very well.The hotel is located in a calm, somewhat “closed” area behind parking lots/buildings, so it doesn’t feel exposed to traffic noise. It’s not directly connected to a main street — if you’re in the back area you mainly just park your car and it stays quiet.The bathroom was very clean and spacious.Another minor issue: the bathroom ventilation didn’t work during our stay — hopefully they fix this soon.Staff experience was mixed: the young woman who checked us in was very sweet and helpful, and the guy at the desk in the evening was also friendly. However, the woman at reception when we checked out around 6 AM was extremely rude and raised her voice saying she “doesn’t speak English.” I understand not everyone is fluent, but working at a hotel for tourists and reacting like that is not okay. She still understood my room number in English, so it felt unnecessary and unprofessional.Overall, I loved the quietness and comfort, and for the price it was excellent. I would stay here again.

    One small downside: there was a slightly strange smell in the hallway where our room was (I think that section was connected to the kitchen area), but it did not smell inside the room, so it wasn’t a big issue.

    The service was friendly and helpful the location was very good.

    The decor and ambiance felt like I was in a motel in Kansas, not a beautiful old building in a beautiful old town of an incredible city.

    I am utterly grateful that they had a room available when my original host cancelled on me upon arrival. The location is great, the area is fairly quiet, except when the local neighbours decided to have a party. The room is spacious compared to the usual single rooms.

    I think it is a bit overpriced but that is probably due to the location and the high season (advent).

    A great quiet hotel that is just a short walk from the city! The room was clean, and they give you a free water which is a nice touch! The apps on the TV actually work! I would gladly stay again.

    Nothing!

    Great location for the Christmas events. Everyone at the hotel and the surrounding area was very helpful and welcoming. Parking was a bit tight but with patience and arriving at a decent time we found a spot.

    10WilliamPosted on: 10-28-2025

    Great breakfast served early to get the day going. Location in old town but a bit off the beaten path which keeps things quiet. Short walk to the U1.

    Room was a bit small for 3 adults. With a longer stay this would have been an issue.

    10MarioPosted on: 10-7-2025

    Nice place on perfect quiet location near the pedestrian zone. Parking garage nearby. Beautiful traditional restaurant next door

    Quiet rooms with comfortable beds, helpful staff and reasonable price. Very good breakfast though quite expensive.

    Location close to red light district but not a problem.

    Trevlig och hjälpsam personal!

    Ingen air-conditioning! But fortunately there was a fan. Although it was very hot in the rumWe missed that there was no air-conditioning!

    Center of town easy to see everything

    I had a small family, 2&4 year old. They gave me a room with no elevator going up stairs that were probably 200 years old. With luggage and a stroller. The parking nearby was full so we had to park a 5 min walk away. The doors didn’t close all the way and the front door had no extra lock. Just the auto lock.
