LEGERE HOTEL Erfurt
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Book it if you are in Erfurt for the trade fair or want the best-rated hotel in our sample and do not mind riding into the centre. If your trip is about strolling the old town, the cathedral and the Krämerbrücke are too far to walk comfortably, so a more central hotel may serve you better.

Trade fair visitors are the obvious match. Guests say the hotel sits directly next to the fair grounds, with a tram stop right outside. Business travellers who want a gym, a restaurant on site and a reliable score will also be comfortable here.
Sightseers who want to step out of the door into the medieval centre should think twice. Everything in our list of nearby sights is a long walk away, and this is the most expensive of our three Erfurt picks.
Location and getting around
The address is 33 Gothaer Straße. Erfurt Cathedral and St Severus' Church are both about 2.5 km away, roughly 31 minutes on foot. The Krämerbrücke is about 3.1 km away, around 39 minutes walking. These are straight-line estimates, and the real walk will likely be longer.
Put simply, the old town is far from here. Plan on public transport or a taxi for sightseeing. Guests mention a tram stop right outside, which should help, but check routes and times for your plans.
The location score is still 9.1 out of 10. That reflects what guests value: being next to the fair grounds with easy transport.
What guests say
LEGERE HOTEL Erfurt scores 8.7 out of 10 from 1,492 reviews. That placed it 1st of the 9 eligible hotels we compared.
Staff are a regular point of praise, described as friendly, helpful and attentive. The location next to the fair grounds and the tram stop is the other main plus.
Breakfast divides opinion. Guests like the wide selection and the fresh items, but many find it expensive, and some mention cold dishes now and then. Breakfast is listed as continental, vegetarian and buffet.
Price and how it compares with our other picks
The reference price was €168.21 per night, about €336 for the stay. These are reference prices seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 for 2 adults, not live quotes. Check today's price for your dates, especially during fair weeks.
That rate was above the sample median of €155.93. Our Budget pick, Hotel Wilna, was €109.20 per night with an 8.2 score and 3 stars. Our Best Value pick, Best Western Erfurt-Apfelstädt, was €125 per night with 8.5 and 4 stars.
So you pay roughly €43 to €59 more per night than the other two for the highest score of the three. Facilities listed include free Wi-Fi, a restaurant, a fitness centre, air conditioning and a terrace.
Why it made our top 3
