We were not sure about this hotel at first, no reviews on TA (…..come on guys keep up the good work)! only 1 night as part of a 5 week touring holiday around Europe. We thought it might have been one of those hotels that had rested on its past recommends and maybe was not that good after all! Beautiful, old worlde German hotel, lots of wood inside and out. Nice large modern room, looked newly refurbished, hardwood flooring, small fridge, no air con, but opening windows onto the balcony and although on a main road it was fairly quiet during the night as regards traffic. My only comment was that a bit more care was needed on the cleaning, grout between the shower tiles had started to grow some black mould which could be easily rectified and some dust “strings” in the ceiling corners of the room, again easily sorted, wood wardrobe fronts had finger marks on them. Bed was a little on the firm side, sheets clean but showing age (bottom sheet had a small hole in it). All the staff were lovely, professional and very helpful speaking good English. We had an a la carte booking in the restaurant which was in a lovely dining room. Because we were on week 4 we just went for a main course. Hubby had a rump steak which was cooked perfectly, very tender and really tasty with roast potatoes, bacon and onion. I decided on 2 mini quiche (pastry was like a soft filo, would have been perfect with a shortcrust), with feta and spinach and a salad, they were really tasty and salad full of crunch, all fresh vegetables. Both meals simple but really delicious. A decent wine list. Parking was good, opposite side of the road but their own large car park. The train station is also across the road so would imagine a great place to stay if you did not have a car. Apparently a big walking area here. Breakfast was very good, had smoked salmon on which was a nice change to the hams. There is a Spa area which we did not see and they provided dressing gown and towels in the room. Would definitely recommend.
