Your Perfect Room

✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026

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

Best rooms to request

Request a room on a higher floor (4th or 5th) to minimize street noise, especially considering the hotel's location on Schützenstraße, a relatively busy street in Neu-Ulm. Additionally, these higher floors often have fewer shared walls with neighboring buildings, reducing potential noise from adjacent rooms.

⚠️

Rooms to avoid

Avoid rooms on the first three floors, as they may be closer to the reception area and potentially noisier due to foot traffic.

🪟

Best views

Given the hotel's address, rooms facing east or west on higher floors (4th or 5th) might offer views of the surrounding cityscape, but this can't be confirmed without specific room details.

😴

Quietest floors

Floors 4-5

🔊 Noise notes

Schützenstraße, being a main street, can generate some noise from passing traffic, pedestrians, and local businesses. Additionally, the hotel's location near the city center may result in occasional noise from nearby bars or restaurants.

Insider tips

Arrive early for check-in to secure a room on a higher floor, as these tend to fill up quickly, especially during peak travel seasons. Take advantage of the hostel's proximity to the city center by asking for directions or recommendations from the staff; they're familiar with the local area and can point you towards hidden spots or popular attractions.

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

Top Attractions in Neu-Ulm

Donauufer (Danube Riverside Path) Free

💡 Best at sunset when the Minster glows pink. Continue south along the path for 15 minutes to reach the quieter 'Wiblingen' bank area with swans.

Donauufer (Danube Riverside) Free

💡 Bring binoculars. The view of Ulm's skyline from the southern bank at sunset is excellent, and you can spot herons and cormorants along the reeds.

Neu-Ulm Stadtpark Free

💡 Bring your own food; there's a small kiosk but it's limited. Early morning is quietest for birdwatching.

Museum der Stadt Neu-Ulm Free

💡 Go on a free Sunday—usual entrance is €3. The museum has a detailed model of the 1944 bombing of Neu-Ulm, which locals find moving but visitors may find intense.

Petrusplatz and St. Peter and Paul Church Free

💡 Look for the small mosaic panel near the entrance depicting local history. The square benches are a good lunch spot if you've brought sandwiches.

Mahnmal für die Opfer des Nationalsozialismus (Memorial to the Victims of National Socialism) Free

💡 Allow 15 minutes. The panels are in German only, but the visual impact is clear. Combine with a walk along the nearby 'Blockhüttenweg' for context.

Petruskirche (St. Peter's Church) Free

💡 The church is usually open 9–5, but ring the bell at the parish office next door if it's locked—they'll often let you in. The acoustic is excellent; ask if any free lunchtime concerts are scheduled.

Edwin-Scharff-Haus Free

💡 Check their website for free guided tours in German on select Sundays. The café next door does decent coffee for under €3.
