Before you check in to Rennbahn, here's what to know about choosing the right room.

😴

Quietest floors

🔊 Noise notes

Insider tips

Park your car in the nearby public parking garage, as the hotel might not have on-site parking. Also, consider requesting a room with a bathtub, as some rooms may only have a shower.

How to request your preferred room:
  1. Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
  2. Add a note in your booking comments field
  3. Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
