Review summary

Based on recent reviews

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.
