Hotel Zur Post

Helpful staff, clean spacious room, restaurant with reasonable selection of good food. Good choice at breakfast buffet. Close to River Mosel could not see as Mway and buildings in way. On a main road. Good frequency of bus service to centre of Trier 6 km distant. Good value for money

This property was nothing like it’s photos. The front desk staff called her boss and he said we could leave as the room smelled and it was old and not at all what was represented on the ******* site. Her boss said fine to leave then when the wonderful ******* agent contacted them they said they didn’t say that and would charge me . Unreal.

A charming hotel, about twenty minutes drive from Trier centre. A tiny room, but adequate, clean, helpful proprietor. Nice breakfast. However, don't arrive before 3:00 pm in the afternoon. Free parking by the side of the road opposite.

After spending a few days in Bruges, our next stop was Trier. We had booked two nights in Hotel Zur Post. This hotel was located on the outskirts of Trier and is a short distance away from the World Heritage Sites the town is renowned for. This is a modern establishment, in fact our rooms were in a part of the hotel that had just been redone. Our room and all its amenities were very topnotch and the bathroom was very updated. The checkin went well as the staff were efficient and courteous. There is free parking available, on a not so busy road, just across from the hotel. Our room faced the road but there was no problem with noise at night. There is a restaurant on the premises, where we were served breakfast in the morning, and which was very excellent. We also ate our dinner here for our two nights stay. The meals were reasonably priced and very tasty, and a good variety was offered on the menu. A nice spot to end up after a busy day of "adventure". We, "adventurers", like to visit UNESCO's World Heritage Sites andTrier, probably falls into the "king sized group of sites in one location" category. Trier was founded by the Celts in late 4th century BC and then conquered in the 1st century BC by the Romans. The city is considered to be the oldest in Germany. Trier was one of four capitals in the late 3rd or early 4th centuries AD of the Roman empire. Consequently, we see that the significance of Trier during the Roman and Holy Roman empires led to it having both Roman monuments and cathedrals from these eras. These are now listed as UNESCO World Heritage Site. These include well preserved Roman monuments such as the Roman Amphitheatre, the 2nd century AD Roman bridge, the oldest bridge still in use north of the Alps, the Porta Nigra, the best preserved city gate north of the Alps, and the ruins of three Roman Baths, Barbara, Imperial and Forum. There are the old, well preserved medieval buildings such as the huge basilica, Aula Palatina, huge in the true sense, built between AD 300 and AD 310, and the Trier Cathedral, it is the oldest church in Germany, dating from the early 4th century. These are but a few of the sites to see. A tour of the Hauptmarkt is also a must stop, for both shopping and restaurants, or just for photo taking. In the market, is an ancient cross, installed by Archbishop Heinrich 1, in 958 AD. It is not conspicuous, so you might have to look closely for it. It is not large and also its base might be obscured by the seat of some tired market goer. At one end of this square is where you will find the Porta Nigra, quite large and easy to spot. I should be able to at least recommend one spot at which to have some form of refreshment, and fortunately, I can. If you are in the mood for some delicious treats, we were given a very good tip, Christis Eis & Kaffee. It is located just off the square, heading down from Dom St. Peter. Anyway, there you have it. Is a stop to Trier worth it? Yep! And, would we chose the Hotel Zur Post ag

Four hours after check out (and many miles away by then) I realised left my toiletries bag inc medicines in the bathroom . I rang and emailed. No replies at all. I said I was happy to pay postage and a service fee. Still no reply. Appalling service from the hotel

Extremely lovely and friendly staff, even with a language barrier. The hotel is quaint and feels very safe. 10/10 would go back again

This hotel is fine, but the surrounding area is run down. It was very hot during our stay and they have no fans. If you leave the window open the room fills with flies.

Quaint family owned and run hotel

Fint hotel med flink vært restauranten var lukket uden forudgående info.
