Steichele Hotel & Weinrestaurant
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.
Steichele Hotel & Weinrestaurant is a good booking if you want a quieter central base in Nuremberg, close to the Germanisches Nationalmuseum and the train station, with an on-site restaurant. Skip it if you want to be right on the market square or if bed comfort is a sensitive point for you.

Travellers arriving by train and those who want calm evenings near the Old Town are the best fit. Guests describe the position as central and quiet, and they mention the metro and train station nearby. The 3-star hotel scores 8.5 out of 10 from 2,299 reviews and has a restaurant, a terrace, family rooms and free Wi-Fi. It is tagged as pet friendly; confirm the policy with the hotel.
If your plan is to spend most of your time around the castle, the Sorat Hotel Saxx is closer. Anyone particular about mattresses should note the comments about beds below.
Location and getting around
Knorrstraße 2-8, in Mitte, is the address. Guests give the location 9.5 out of 10.
The Germanisches Nationalmuseum is about 0.3 km away, roughly 4 minutes on foot. St. Sebaldus Church is about 0.8 km, around 10 minutes, and Nuremberg Castle about 1 km, around 13 minutes. These are straight-line estimates that have not been checked, so the real walk may take longer.
What guests say
Location is the first thing guests praise: central yet quiet, near the Old Town, metro and station. Breakfast comes next, a fresh buffet with fruit salad, scrambled eggs, rolls and filter coffee.
Beds split opinion. Many guests found them comfortable, but some thought the mattresses too soft or disliked the gap between two single beds pushed together. If that matters, ask about bed types when booking.

All three of our picks were close in price. The Budget pick, Sorat Hotel Saxx Nürnberg, was about €337 with a score of 8.8. The Luxury pick, Sheraton Carlton Nuernberg, was about €359 with 5 stars and an 8.8 score. Steichele costs about €7 more than the Saxx and €15 less than the Sheraton. What sets it apart is the quieter setting, the wine restaurant and a breakfast that lists vegetarian and gluten-free options.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 4 eligible hotels in Nuremberg. Steichele ranks third of the four on guest score, but our Best Value slot weighs score, number of reviews and price together rather than picking the cheapest. Over 2,000 reviews and a 9.5 location score helped it earn the place. With such a small sample, the margin between picks is narrow.
