We will be in Regensburg at the end of a Viking River Cruise and would like to spend a few days there. Does anyone have a favorite hotel that you would recommend? Also should we book a tour of the city or can we do it on our own?

I always go with searches on Booking.com to find hotels with high reviews. (Booking only sends a link to add a review after you stay there, so there’s no fake reviews like TripAdvisor, etc.)
I found this beauty for Regensburg when I am there for the Christmas Markets: Hotel Orphée - Großes Haus. It’s received a 9.0 rating with 834 reviews.
Extra note: I especially like the decor and layout of one of the rooms, so I requested that one, if possible, through the notes/message space on Booking’s reservation, along with a nice note about visiting their city. They replied that they will give me that specific room.

Thank you, Jean. I usually do the same, but I check on Expedia. I will check out the hotel you recommend.

We have stayed at the Hotel Weidenhof multiple times. They are moderately priced with good size rooms, a great staff and located about 3 blocks from train station. We have reserved at Booking.Com and directly with the hotel.
Once we had to pay a small "Die Bahn" fee at local bank when we needed to be enroute to our next stop. The owner offer to take the money and the chit to the bank for us on her way to work.
