A cool biker hotel for traveling to/from. The whole ambience, especially the garden with grill house and biker bar, invites you to feast and drink. Klaus is a great guy and the employees are very friendly and helpful. We were in Hamburg with our club and stayed there overnight on the way there and on the way back. I can only recommend it!!!

Outdated hotel in a quiet location in Alsfeld. Service unfriendly, as they were obviously not enthusiastic about our dog in the hotel (even though pets are expressly allowed!) Simply furnished rooms with a very small bathroom. Delicious home-style cuisine in the directly attached restaurant. Breakfast does not meet today's hotel standards and unfortunately had a lot of room for improvement (cream cheese and butter, for example, straight from the packaging with a knife - without words!). Sufficient parking available. We didn't feel welcome with our dog, and unfortunately the price-performance ratio doesn't fit at all compared to other houses.

Food is great. The bathroom, especially the shower, was very tight to get in and out of. Otherwise very familiar hotel. Always happy to come back.

We had booked several rooms for our team and were guests at the Hotel Schwalbennest for a weekend in June.The service is first class, both from the boss himself and the great waitresses in the beer garden, every wish was quickly fulfilled.The breakfast was super good and the food in the beer garden was delicious. There is also enough choice for vegetarians.Thank you very much, if we stay in alsFeld again, I will book again.

The ambience was dignified and the restaurant's layout was very nice. The food was plentiful and tasted very good. The prices are in the lower segment and affordable for everyone. It's easy to go with the whole family as it's also very child-friendly. The staff is very polite and friendly. You're welcome to come back. Again very well attended, you would have to book a table in advance. The food was again delicious, the prices were adjusted but quite reasonable and not excessive.

Wonderful hosts! Uncomplicated, friendly, personable, helpful and friendly staff! Breakfast with first-class products! First-class food and it was served in a wonderful, extraordinary atmosphere in the garden restaurant! All that remains is to say a big thank you to the hosts for the wonderful time in the 'Swallow's Nest'!!! We will be happy to come back! Your Frankfurters!

The service was almost unfriendly in its annoyance, so that when I checked in I had the impression that my mere presence was too much. Room was clean and functionally comfortable, breakfast in a dull and windowless room with the charm of an oil rig canteen was unsatisfactory at best. Watery, over-salted scrambled eggs, canned fruit and vegetables (fresh tomatoes and cucumber slices were also offered), the first hotel in Europe not to offer me hazelnut cream!
