Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Hotel Glockengasse, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on higher floors (above 5th floor) for reduced street noise from Glockengasse. Given the hotel's 3-star rating and location in a busy city, you can expect a more comfortable stay on upper floors.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the ground floor or first floor as they may be noisier due to potential street traffic and proximity to the service entrance.
Best views
Unfortunately, the hotel's address on Glockengasse does not offer spectacular views, but rooms on the north side (towards the rear of the building) might provide a glimpse of the adjacent buildings or the city's rooftops.
Quietest floors
Floors 5 and above are likely the quietest due to the hotel's layout and the fact that higher floors are typically farther from the street.
🔊 Noise notes
Glockengasse is a busy street, and rooms facing the street may experience noise from passing traffic and pedestrians. Additionally, the hotel's location near several bars and restaurants means you might hear some noise from late-night revelers.
Insider tips
Consider requesting a room with a fridge, as this may be a standard amenity in some rooms, especially those on higher floors. Take advantage of the hotel's proximity to the cathedral and main shopping areas by asking the staff for walking directions or recommendations for local attractions.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
