Beautiful rooms with all the trimmings, restaurant excellent for breakfast and dinner. Unfortunately there is no dish in the lower or middle price segment on the menu, so it's a bit too expensive if msn stays there every evening.

For lunch there is a three-course menu for fair money.Everything is very tasty and the portion is sufficient.Service very friendly.Prices are generally rather high, but still recommended.

Nice reception. Arrival at night well organized.Top breakfast.The Tesla charging station works, but unfortunately I had to park very close to a combustion engine because the hotel showed no initiative to keep the charging station free. For me it's a contradiction. I chose the hotel because of the Tesla Destination Charger Station and then have a poor chance of charging there just because the hotel can't handle it. Everything worked out for me, but it could have happened.Photo is from the next morning, where I moved a car a little to the side to keep the station free for another potential charging guest.

That was fun. We were invited to a company event. A great reception, with absolutely brilliant weather. Food, drinks, service were 1a. We grilled outside and ate inside. We also really liked the ambience.Big praise to everyone, service, kitchen, etc. The flank steaks were a dream :)

I guess I was unlucky and my taste buds had a problem. Due to the onset of rain, everything takes a very long time. The expectations that the prices gave me could not satisfy my irritated taste buds.

The food was nothing special for the price-performance ratio, the rooms are modern but it is far too loud. Far too few parking spaces for such a large location

Absolute recommendation for wedding couples 🎉

We booked two nights with a reservation for dinner in the restaurant. Friendly welcome, super tasty grill buffet on the first evening, good service staff. When we returned to the room it was almost 30 degrees. No air conditioning, so windows open... and quickly closed again. A wedding party was celebrating downstairs - that would have been fine - but at regular intervals the air conditioning in the rooms on the ground floor made such a loud noise that it was impossible to sleep with the window open. In the morning (Saturday) I was woken up at 7 a.m. by hellish construction noise, making it impossible to go back to sleep. The receptionist was friendly when we pointed this out and acted as if this circumstance was new (which contradicted the stage of the construction site) and how bad she found it... hidden by "I can't help it either". The lady then looked for other rooms, but they also faced the construction site and didn't have air conditioning either. Second evening in the restaurant, food and service great, room too warm again, air conditioning on the ground floor was loud again, but slept a little better. When we left, the noise from the construction site was pointed out again, a similar reaction to the first day. It's a shame that the bad sleeping experience greatly affected the good impression of the restaurant and the very nice ambience of the hotel. Unfortunately, it is absolutely not recommended for overnight stays, at least while the construction site is still there. We would have liked to have had some advice in this direction when booking.
