Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Picobello, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the higher floors (3rd or 4th floor) for a quieter stay. As a 3-star hotel in a city centre location, room quality can vary. Higher floors tend to be away from the street noise on Hotherstraße, which can be moderate. Be aware that the lift only goes up to the 3rd floor, so you'll need to walk up the stairs if you're on the 4th floor.
Rooms to avoid
If you're a light sleeper, avoid rooms facing the street ( rooms on the north side) as they may be more prone to noise from the road. Additionally, rooms near the service entrance might be noisier due to staff and delivery activity.
Best views
Limited view options, but rooms on the south side of the 3rd floor might offer a glimpse of the surrounding rooftops or a quiet courtyard.
