Prorsus Apartment Design Overview
First Impressions
Walking up to Prorsus Apartment Design on Portitzer Straße, you immediately get the sense this isn’t your typical hotel experience. It’s tucked away in the Sellerhausen-Stünz district — honestly, I had to look that up before my first visit — but that’s actually part of its charm. This four-star property feels more like staying in a friend’s incredibly well-designed apartment than checking into a standard hotel. The building has this understated modern aesthetic that doesn’t scream for attention, which I appreciate.
Location & Getting Around
You know what surprised me about this area? It’s way more connected to central Leipzig than you’d expect from the address. Sure, you’re not right in the Altstadt, but that means you get actual parking — and it’s free, which is practically unheard of these days. The neighborhood has this residential feel where you can actually hear yourself think, yet you’re still close enough to hop into the city center when you want that urban energy. I mean, couples seem to really get this balance — the feedback I keep hearing is that it’s perfect for romantic getaways.
The Space Itself
Here’s where Prorsus really delivers on that “design” part of its name. Each room feels thoughtfully curated rather than mass-produced. The layouts are smart — they’ve maximized space without making it feel cramped, and there’s this attention to detail in the furnishings that makes you want to linger. The kitchen setup is particularly well done; it’s not just a token kitchenette but actually functional if you want to grab groceries and cook something simple. I’ve stayed in places where the “kitchen” is basically a microwave and a prayer, but this isn’t that.
What Makes It Work
The 7.8 rating makes sense when you experience the place — it’s solidly good without trying to be something it’s not. The staff understands that people choosing an apartment-style stay want a bit more independence, so they’re helpful without being hovering. There’s this relaxed efficiency to how everything operates. Plus, and this might sound small, but the Wi-Fi actually works consistently, which… well, you know how that goes sometimes.
Why Guests Love It
What keeps people coming back is this combination of design-forward comfort and practical convenience. You get the aesthetic appeal — everything looks great in photos and feels even better in person — but you also get things like that free parking and enough space to spread out. It’s particularly appealing if you’re planning to explore Leipzig at your own pace rather than rushing through a packed itinerary. The apartment setup means you can have coffee in your pajamas or come back for an afternoon break without feeling like you’re bothering anyone. For couples especially, there’s something about having your own little Leipzig base that feels more intimate than a traditional hotel corridor.
To book a hotel in Leipzig during Bach Festival celebrations, travelers need early planning as this historic musical city draws visitors eager to experience its rich classical heritage and peaceful revolution history.

Reviews of Prorsus Apartment Design
Sehr zuempfehlen – Manu from Germany – 3 August 2025 (9/10)
Die Einrichtung ist sehr modern und schlicht eingerichtet , eine tolle Dusche ( Massagedusche)
Alles sehr geräumig für 3 Erwachsene optimal ! Lage super Ausstattung sehr gut
What could be improved: Die 2. Nacht war recht laut da bis in die Nacht rein Leute auf dem Hof gegrillt und gefeiert haben !Goede faciliteiten en locatie, de bedden kunnen een stuk beter – Gerard from Netherlands – 29 July 2024 (7/10)
Mooie badkamer, moderne tv, balkon.
What could be improved: De bedden zijn van matige kwaliteit, terwijl de rest van het appartement wel modern en goed is. 2 nieuwe bedden zouden het comfort behoorlijk verbeteren.Superb – Frank from Germany – 7 July 2024 (9/10)
Sehr modern eingerichtet.
What could be improved: Der Backofen hat nicht funktioniertSuperb – Marco from Germany – 12 May 2024 (9/10)
Super Wohnung 👍👍😀👍💯
Good – Sarah from Germany – 22 February 2024 (7/10)
Die Küche und Bäder sind wirklich ein Traum. Es war auch sehr sauber und der Ausklappbare Tisch war auch sehr praktisch.Die Lage auch perfekt keine 10m ist gleich ein großer Rewe, Bahhof und Strasenbahnstation mit der man unkompliziert bis in die Innenstadt kommt. Ein schneller Imbiss auch kein Problem.
What could be improved: Treppenflur ist wirklich ein graus, wenn man sich am Geländer festhalten will, hat man es gleich in der Hand. Man sollte also gut beim Treppensteigen sein sowie nicht vergessen die Haustür abzuschließen immer sofort, da die Tür nicht von allein zu bleibt. Das „Doppelbett“ war im Endeffekt eine quietschige ausgeklappte Couch wo an jeder Seite auch eine riesen Lücke immer war sowie am Fußteil war es eher nur ein dünnes gerüst. Ich habe mich in dem Bett daher eher unsicher gefühlt, aber trotzdem gut geschlafen. Da war das Einzelbett komfortabler, da handelte es sich wirklich um ein Bett.Sauber, tolle Ausstattung, zufrieden – Patrick from Germany – 14 October 2023 (9/10)
Der schöne Balkon, die zweckmäßige und auch optisch ansprechende Ausstattung hat uns sehr gefallen. Auch die Zimmer waren bestens gereinigt und sauber.
What could be improved: Der Check In könnte etwas vereinfacht werden. Das Warten auf eine Person könnte durch eine Schlüsselbox vereinfacht werden.Superb – Diana from Germany – 16 March 2023 (9/10)
Sehr schöne Unterkunft, nur die Küchenausstattung war etwas rar. aber sonst alles gut!
Nice clean and modern Apartment close to Tram and Supermarket – Ruby from Canada – 17 February 2023 (9/10)
The apartment is actually larger than expected. Pictures represent exactly what you get. Very clean and modern. The Rewe Supermarket is right around the corner and the Tram right across to go downtown. Lots of parking places infront of the building. Internet worked great.
What could be improved: Could not get the TV channels to work. Maybe some instructions in German and English would be helpful.war in Ordnung – Heike from Germany – 12 December 2022 (8/10)
Sehr sauber,für uns gute Lage,Parken problemlos vor dem Haus
What could be improved: kein richtiges Bett (Ausziehcouch),für 2 relativ große Personen (195 und 175 cm) grenzwertigSuperb – Aylin2231 from Germany – 5 September 2022 (9/10)
Pretty clean and convenient
Most of the things you need for a longer trip were provided such as oven , stove ,coffee machine….
And well decorated.
What could be improved: The fact that it was on 4th floor and there was no elavator. So it's better not to bring heavy luggages with yourself.
