Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Westin Leipzig, originally built as the Hotel Merkur, offers spacious rooms, some boasting great views from the 18th floor, complete with a fridge, kettle, and coffee machine. Its prime location provides easy access to the central train station, city center, Christmas markets, the zoo, public transport, and shops, with a big park just around the corner. The bar and lounge on the 27th floor are frequently mentioned as highlights, and the pool is a plus; though some have noted that the TV can be a little difficult to operate. guests find it a comfortable and conveniently located choice.

I found the room quite spacious. The bathroom had lovely scented products and a coffee machine (it was a Nespresso!). Everything worked well.
The air conditioning did not work. It just made noise (it was loud). the TV was small and old and it had no Bluetooth.
