My family of four stayed in two rooms at the An der Oper during the World Cup 2006. I was hesitant at staying after reading the previous reviews, but rooms in the city center were very scarce for that time and hugely expensive. We are so glad that we stayed. I think the hotel underwent a renovation in the past year and there is a new annex across the street from the main hotel. We stayed in 2 rooms in the new annex. They were lovely, well appointed and spacious. All the furnishings were new, the beds and linens were very nice and the bathrooms were absolutely wonderful. We felt so lucky! The best thing though was the location. It is so close to Marienplatz, the Opera, the English Garden, Maximillian Strasse, everything! We walked everywhere and had a fantastic time. The people were very friendly. There definitely is street noise but I think you can get rooms on the courtyard side. I would recommend asking for the rooms in the new annex, as I have not seen any of the rooms in the main hotel. We were delighted with our stay at this hotel.
