Bayerischer Hof is a three star place with everything you'd expect from a 'middle class' hotel. The hotel is owned and run by a local family and service is friendly and helpful.
My room wasn't big but comfortable, the bed was fine. The desk deserves a honourable mentioning, along the whole side of the room under the window, it had a size that could really be used for work.
It was nice to have a larger than average bathroom with a real window.
Breakfast is served in the back room of the restaurant with a big buffet.
Cold drinks are available from a machine in the corridor 24/7 for acceptable prices (1.50 € for a beer if I remember correctly).
Unique Quality: Big plus: the location, 3 minutes walk from Rathausplatz, in the heart of the town with everything in walking distance, but in a quiet side street.

In the past i have enjoyed several beers which have been brewed in Ingolstadt. I believe there are 3 breweries in the City - HerrnBrau, IngoBrau and NordBrau. I would not dream of saying which is the best, all i would say is that I enjoy HerrnBrau beer - oh and I can say I have been shown around it several times.
The Audi Forum Ingolstadt was opened on 15 December 2000; it is set within the grounds of the AUDI AG corporate headquarters and it does permit you to feel the atmosphere that is generated everywhere. The forum is made up of several buildings - the Information Pavilion, the customer centre, marketing and customer centre, the museum mobile and a series of restaurants.
Bayerisches Armeemuseum (Bavarian Army Museum) consists of two parts. The topics and exhibits from the middle ages to the 19th century are presented in Neues Schloss. An exhibition on World War I can be visited in Reduit Tilly on the opposite river bank, only a short walk away across the pedestrian bridge. The ticket is valid for both. Due to lack of time I only saw the exhibitions in Neues Schloss.
I am not a war buff at all, but from a historian's point of view there is a lot on display which is of interest. So what were the things I found interesting?
First of all, seeing the interior of the palace - there is no furniture left but there are gothic vaults on the lower, wooden ceilings on the upper floors, frescoes, stonemason door frames and such.
The exhibit about the 30 Years War in the 17th century includes a collection of tiny models of weapons, cannons, carts and acrriages - these were the catalogue of a Nürnberg salesman (photo 5).
The Turkish hall with items that were conquered or otherwise acquired during the wars against the Turks in the late 17th century.
The large collection of embroidered banners.
A temporary exhibition of photographs, recently taken, of what is left of the World War II fortifications along the coast of Dordogne.
See the website for all practical details and up-to-date information.
The Blue Hour was magical that day, with a full moon just rising behind the castle.
My camera started screaming, get me out, get me out.
Even a parking lot can look romantic in such circumstances.
Inetresting light effect, caused by a passing bus.
The blue lights under the Danube bridge are reflected in the waters of the river.
I decided not to turn the horizon in horizontal position when I saw this photo.

This is a spare time resort, where a lot of people go for a walk with their dogs, go jogging, or just walk around the lake or visit the park with the animals nearby. And sometimes during the winter time you can skate on the ice.
