This used to be Steigenberger Esplanade and they were top notch in all areas which is why I booked my stay here again for the umpteenth time. We stayed for 2 nights in a beautiful suite overlooking the city center of Jena on the 7th floor. The restaurant staff, which was still Steigenberger staff, is amazing, attentive, polite, and kind. However, the new staff needs training on customer service.The first night we were there the hotel had a fire drill (necessary i get it.) However, there was not one Dorint employee anywhere to tell us where to go. I was there with my mom who is 86 who just had hip replacement surgery. In the amount of time that it took my mom and i to descend the seven flights of stairs, trying to find our way out if there had been a real fire, we would never had made it out. Still no Dorint employee in sight! I must mention that there was a whole family that joined us on our journey to find the escape route so it wasn't just my mom and I that were having these issues. When we finally saw a Dorint employee, he told us we needed to climb all the stairs back up to the seventh floor although the elevators were functioning again! (We took the elevator.) The next morning we had to get up in time for the breakfast buffet. There was no apology for the terrible nights rest. The room was never cleaned although we requested it be cleaned. When we talked to the front desk about this he couldn't have cared less. Nothing was done by Dorint except collect payment.

Steigenberger Esplanade is exceptional. The room was perfect, breakfast superior, and the hostess at breakfast was delightful. Everybody was friendly and helpful and welcoming. The hotel itself couldn't be in a better location. It's within walking distance to the town square all the local restaurants and pubs, and some great shopping! Parking is in the garage and there is always parking available! Do yourself a favor and spoil yourself with a stay at Steigenberger Esplanade Jena. It's definitely it!

The hotel is renovating its interior, carpets are covered, some areas are cordoned off. Still, a very good hotel, perfectly located in the middle of Jena.

Great hotel. During my stay there were improvements being made but the hotel made sure this did not affect any visitors. It was holiday time in Jena so there were not many people around. There was a good selection of food for breakfast. All the staff were friendly and helpful.

A hotel that suffered from COVID. It feels dead in the hotel. The staff was rude when I checked in. And pretty much the place was good for sleeping in, but it had nothing else to offer. The room was clean, but the bed was squeaking. Unbelievable how much the place has declined in a matter of two years. I stayed for four nights, chose not to get the sheets changed to help the environment; but ultimately it felt rather sketchy.

Esplanade: very recommended unique place to stay.
I tried more locations to stay in Jena for my business trips since jan 2019. Esplanade, I have to say, is the best when I compare service, location and the range of services offered including definitely a best breakfast. For my needs specifically also the 24 hour open reception and always available parking, Esplanade is a perfect match on what I need when in Jena at a price that is very competitive. For my needs, definitely a best ratio between quality and service and cost. I wish I had this option for accommodation on other business or private trips in others countries I am visiting regularly as a sales person. Good job Esplanade and fingers crossed for anything to come this special year and years after.
