The first few days I was there my room was too hot in the night. When I talked to the people on the front desk I was told that the air conditioning was turned off at night! That’s madness. If made the room too hot for me to sleep well at night and ruined stay in Jena. It was not what I thought I was buying. Other than e, pretty nice, good breakfast, staff friendly and nice Or

Genuinely excellent hotel

Genuinely exceeded my expectations. The architecture is open and airy, which gives a sense of being outside, the deco is minimalist and room spacious, clean and with quality toiletries. The food both for breakfast and dinner was excellent and made of wholesome ingredients however the real strength of the hotel in my view is their staff who seemed to understand my needs and nothing was ever too much. Especially the lady in the moonlight bar who is so welcoming and when you are a solo traveller on a business trip that can make the whole difference.! thank you Dorint

Following the Emperor

My brother and I stayed at the Dorint as our base to tour Napoleonic battlefields in Jena, Auerstadt and Lutzen. Jena is a pretty and lovely town with many restaurant choices. Great food, great hiking and friendly people.
