In 2026, the Classik Hotel Magdeburg was named the regional GÄSTELIEBLING in Magdeburg in the hotel category by the Saxony-Anhalt Tourism Association – securing the title for the second year in a row. For guests, the award provides useful guidance because it highlights guest satisfaction, service quality and how feedback is handled.
When choosing a hotel today, travellers consider more than just location and facilities. Genuine guest experiences also play an important role. This is precisely where the GÄSTELIEBLING competition comes in: it highlights which accommodation providers in Saxony-Anhalt are perceived particularly positively by guests and stand out for their service orientation.
What does GÄSTELIEBLING mean?
The GÄSTELIEBLING is an award presented by the Saxony-Anhalt Tourism Association to accommodation providers with strong guest reviews and a high level of service orientation. Awards are presented in the categories Hotel, Guest House/Inn and Holiday Apartment. Regional winners are first selected in the travel regions as well as in Magdeburg and Halle; the state winners are then chosen from among them.
The award is therefore not a freely chosen marketing term, but part of a structured competition.
