The Faust Hotel

Classic stay in the heart of NB. The location is great. Right across the street are some great walkable options. We had a nice time at the Oyster Bar for after dinner drinks. Then breakfast at Le Citron was amazing. The hotel itself is older so there are some elements that reflect that ie: very thin walls 😬. It's a great quaint stay with a lot of history so that's pretty cool. Parking was easy, check in was good... some other rowdy guests, but the coffee in the morning was pretty good.

If you love old architecture/decor, you will enjoy this place. Unless you're into the tiny-house movement, make sure you request a larger sized room. I was by myself, so I got a single sized room. It is about the size of a child's bedroom. The bathroom is a full bath crammed into a half bath. I am a little over 5'9 (a somewhat average size person), and kept bumping my elbow into the wall in the shower. I didn't mind it though. Just know if you are staying with someone, make sure you really really like them if you get a small room. You will also be able to hear your neighbors somewhat easily. The front desk people were nice, and the complimentary soaps were nice. ALSO, you are short walking distance to a lot of retail and food. I had a short walk to the Brauntex theatre which was also a nice experience. It's pretty awesome to go see a show and not mess with parking or driving! The Mexican restaurant next to it was really good(next to the attorneys that neighbor the hotel). The parking in the back is very exposed, so don't expect any shade if you are one who always looks for shaded parking. If you don't stay here, you should at least go inside and appreciate the awesomeness.

Love the way the owners have maintained the historical legacy while making it a place all ages can enjoy. The Magnolia patio was a great place to meet and greet family and friends. Eric in the patio and wherever he is needs, was over the top. Great personality and he truly cares about customer service. Dave I food service is doing great small bites on the patio and I know he is anxious for the dining room remodel to be completed. It will be awesome. The hotel is close to everything so make plans now to have fun!??

The rooms are way too small to be comfortable for two people. However, if you like antiques and you appreciate quality fixtures, doors, table, chairs, etc. you will love the place as a whole. Right down to the ice machines....everything was well maintained and clean. The bed was well appointed and comfortable so when we got acclimated to the closed in space and the claustrophobic panic, it was quite nice.

If I could give 10 stars for service I would. The customer service I received during my stay was incredible, and something you would never expect to see at any chain hotel. The staff could not do enough for me and I'm incredibly grateful to them. The room was also really clean and nice, for a reasonable price, and near plenty of things to do. Parking was also not an issue, there is a massive free public car park 1 minute walk away if their back yard is full.

Came to be haunted but don’t worry, it’s not haunted and is a very comfortable stay for such an old hotel. The patio is a great place to get a drink and small eats even when you aren’t a guest. I must point out the coffee in the lobby for guests is delicious! They give you a little sleep baggie with earplugs, face masks and chamomile tea. Really nice touch. Staff is great and I really enjoyed sharing ghost stories with them!

As a fan of historic hotels, this one is one of the best. Since I prefer staying in a hotel with "personality" instead of a "cookie cutter" one that is the same all over the state, country or world, The Faust meets my desires. From the moment of entering the lobby, it is like being in a different time period. The lobby and the rooms are ones that are not found elsewhere. The rooms were clean, well arranged and comfortable. Don't let the window units for the AC fool you....our room was cool, just like we like it and the ceiling fans would have come in handy had we used them. The bed and linens were perfect and most comfortable. This was our second stay and we are looking forward to our next.

Love this hotel! Great location (be sure to check out Krause’s if you like German food) and always friendly staff. Note there is construction right now, impacting restaurant and lounge, but rooms are wonderful, historic feel. One comment though, I ordered a beer from the small bar service (they were out of ingredients for the first 2 cocktails I ordered), and it was warm, yuck. Please be sure to keep those beers cold
