The room was sufficient. Unfortunately the windows were pretty dirty.The wellness area was great!The restaurant was just being remodeled and therefore didn't really make you feel comfortable.For holidaymakers: Seminars and company meetings take place in the hotel throughout the week. That took away a little of the holiday feeling from us.Breakfast is OK.

We had a junior suite, which was large but simply empty and uncomfortable. In the evening you can sit on a two-seater sofa, which is also an extra bed, and stare at a small TV.The WiFi only reaches moderately or not at all into the room.In the restaurant there is only a mediocre buffet for 30!!! euros per person.The bar was closed on Sunday evening. Great, now I can sit in the room half past nine or get a 0.33l Radeberger (for 4 euros) from the machine.In the entertainment room, everything costs extra money!At least everything was clean and the staff was nice.In summary you can say the hotel is really crap. Don't vacation here!

We had booked all-inclusive, so with breakfast, afternoon coffee and dinner with a drink of your choice, everything was good. Breakfast and dinner buffets were good and plentiful. The bathroom was very small but clean, the room was fine, just a bit worn out. The wellness area is quite large and beautiful

We were here on a girls' short trip with an overnight stay. Water in the indoor pool was warmer the first time, a bit fresh this time, but okay. Buffet for breakfast was great. Lots of choice for dinner. Bathroom a bit small, but sufficient for our event. Overall, another great stay.

Just a hotel. There was no Wow. In addition, there are many discrepancies between the information from the Booking website and the actual situation. E.g. Information about the possibility of fishing - a lie, you cannot fish on the hotel premises and the nearby fishing spot is permanently closed. Kettle - missing. The spa area is limited to the swimming pool and sauna only. The advertisement mentioned, for example, a massage, which was not available on site. We won't go there again.

The room was booked via booking.com. The hotel seemed more romantic.There was no clear indication of a large holiday park. The evening buffet for €30 per person was not appropriate and the breakfast buffet was rather bland. Price-performance hotel rooms and food were not right.

Everything was just right for us, the hiking trails start right at the hotel and you hardly meet any cyclists or other people on them. What I could complain about: The balconies in the hotel are continuous and have no privacy screen on the upper half, which means that you can unfortunately see into the neighboring rooms. You have less privacy than you would like.
