Nice modern hotel. Rooms are large with a sitting area. Bathrooms large and well appointed. Front desk staff very helpful. Located right on the town square so great location to explore. Charge for Internet which drives me crazy in the fancy hotels that you are already paying a good amount for the rooms. Had lunch in the restaurant and it was good. Breakfast buffet excellent with many choices.

This 300 year old hotel is decorated in a very modern, yet tasteful style. The rooms are beautiful, large and very confortable. The location, well, what can I say, is where it needs to be. The restaurant is excellent and the bar/lounge is pretty and fun. Breakfast is out of this world, especially their omellets. Staff is genuine and makes you feel very welcome and very much at ease.

The hotel is attractive inside and out, but a little more thought for guests would make a big difference. The room was big with lots of storage space and windows opening over the outdoor section of the restaurant. The problem with that is that 5:45am is the hour someone chose to drag the tables and chairs into place for the breakfast service (not included in rate). "Service" in the bar or at the bar tables out front involved searching for someone to pour something, then searching again to pay.
The location is good for a walking tour of the town, and a food market sets up in the square.

We stayed here recently and I would recommend a visit a visit to Weimar and if you are a westerner going to Weimar then chances are you are a history or culture buff and then I would highly recommend Elephant because of it's great location and interesting history.

Statues of Alma Mahler and Walter Gropius are on the front balcony and the hotel itself is situated on the old town market square, which is quite small.

Our room was nice, clean and had art and modern furniture.

breakfast was not included in the room I booked and at twenty euros was a bit much but we found some lovely breakfast places very close by.

Staff were fluent in English and very helpful at the hotel.
Wi fi is not free at this hotel....which is kind of annoying.

I recommend brushing up on basic German-- just to be polite, but you will need it if you go to Weimar. My experience was that English was very limited in restaurants and shops....I think this is a very popular destination/ cultural pilgrimmage for predominantly German tourists.
