Very good hotel in Nürnberg
We visited Nürnberg Christmasmarket and stayed at Hotel Cristal for the second time.
It is perfectly located rather close to city center. Metro stop is within just 5 minutes walk and trip to city center takes approx 10 minutes.
Hotel is nice and clean, staff is very friendly.
Neighborhood is safe and there is no traffic noise thus sleeping is good.
Breakfast is very good.
Whenever we will visit Nürnberg again we will definitely choose this hotel.

Great hotel, abysmal parking.
Hotel itself was great. Breakfast was not included, but well worth the extra small fee. Listed as having laundry facilities, but doesn't. Has a laundry service available for those staying multiple days. The room was extremely nice, and exceeded expectations. The biggest downside is parking. We arrived early and found a parking spot, but left later and had a 20+ minute walk back to the hotel when we returned.

Good value for money. Very friendly staff. Depending on location of room there can be quite some noise from the corridor when loud groups enter and exit the hotel.

Hotel Cristal is reliable and convenient. The staff are friendly and helpful. Breakfast is delicious! The hotel has a wonderful self-serve coffee machine in addition to coffee prepared and brought to the table. We stayed in summer when it was especially hot. There is no AC, so we had to keep our windows open - lots of noise from then major street nearby. I would stay there again.

Wir haben die Unterkunft ortsnah zu unseren Freunden, also bewusst gewählt. Die Umgebung ist wegen der Äußeren Bayreuther Straße sehr sehr laut. Bei Zimmern die zur Willibaldstraße gelegen sind, ist ein Schlafen bei geöffnetem Fenster quasi unmöglich. Das wirkt sich besonders an heißen Tagen fast katastrophal aus, da eben diese Zimmer ab Mittags der prallen Sonneneinwirkung ausgesetzt sind. Da es keinerlei Raumklimatisierung gibt, verbringt man schlaflose Nächte bei ggf. über 30°C.
Zudem ist die Willibaldstraße die Anlieferzone des Hotels, u.a. für Wäsche. Während unserer Anwesenheit verliefen die Anlieferungen sehr lautstark, so dass wir morgens gegen 06:00 Uhr im Bett senkrecht standen.
Sonst können wir über das Haus nur positiv berichten. Zuvorkommendes Personal, sauber, sehr gutes Frühstücksbuffet.
Fazit: Sehr gutes Haus, aber für Krach und fehlende Klimatisierung gibt es Abzug.
