We ate here after a hike and enjoyed the view. Saxon Eierschecke is highly recommended. Nice waiter named Ivo, a serving robot. Great

Hotel rooms with youth hostel standards and not worth a star. Our room isn't even signposted and the room number was written on the door with a sharpie. The staff is very friendly and helpful. …

Had lunch on the terrace with a fantastic view. The food was great, but the service was poorly organized and there was very little conversation.What we didn't like was the question as soon as we arrived whether we would pay by card. When we said no, the face grimaced slightly. Later we noticed the stickers on the patio windows: only card payment possible.What's that supposed to mean????They were allowed to pay in cash, but found the notice completely wrong. Too bad, too bad...

A beautiful house in a prime location. Unfortunately there is no Kiba, just the breakfast juices in the evenings. Dessert is subject to an additional charge and is advertised during the meal in budget airline style.Overall, it's pretty impersonal (the welcome champagne is self-service, there's an app for everything else), but the few remaining staff are quite friendly. They still consistently denied us the Kiba.

We met a very friendly, courteous and helpful hotel. Well informed about the existing Elbe floods and the options for getting there were discussed in advance by message and call. So the journey was problem-free. …
