DK Eyewitness "The beds are the big attraction here. They have what is called a Heavenly Bed which features a special mattress and four layers of covers."
Rough Guide "Some rooms boast astounding city views, and there is a selection of hip bars and restaurants that optimize the building’s space."

"Behind that ’70s exterior is a very modern, very sleek luxury hotel — though the Westin isn’t located in the old town, this is still the Leipzig of Wagner, Bach or Mendelssohn." Full review

"A new building (2011) sees Leipzig’s oldest hostel move upmarket to be more hotel in some style. Great modern dorms... (women-only dorms available) and seven spacious apartments."
Lonely Planet "This top-rated hostel gets our thumbs up with its... super-central location and clued-in staff. Every budget, comfort level and privacy need can be accommodated." Full review
