The Westin Leipzig

Very dated hotel. Not up to standard for this top end brand. On check in was told that our room was next to the lift and was very noisy. They could upgrade us to a quiet room for only Euro 15. Twin beds in every room. No tea and coffee facilities in the room. Charged you Euro 5 for every individual visit to the pool. Picture of the hotel was taken with a very special lens as it was much smaller in reality. Many other nicer options.

Reserved a double room, got a single bed, one pillow, one towel, had to sleep on floor Hotel would not resolve or refund, therefore 3 stars!

We were positively surprised about the room which looked much nicer on the inside than what you might think when looking at the hotel from the outside. Seems to have been renovated not that long ago. Just the bathroom door is a souvenir from the old days. Very friendly staff, easy check in and good location. The only minus is that we booked a room with a queen bed but it was actually a room with two single beds moved together. After asking at reception I was told that all of their beds are like this. So be aware of that since I would have not chosen this hotel if I would have known that before.

The location is excellent, within walking distance to major attractions. The room cost is very reasonable. However the room maintenance can be improved eg the glasses were not cleaned, and one was even cracked so could cut into the lip. The bed is extremely uncomfortable because of the rubberized pad on the mattress making it hot like an oven so I could not sleep until I removed it.

Quality of sheets, towels, mattress, cushion and so on were just amazing, as much as the room overall and breakfast/dinner. Just great!
