Update 2nd stay:The assigned room was significantly better this time, but the bathroom could be expanded (just a bathtub without a shower curtain). The breakfast was once again great, unfortunately this time there wasn't the good Obazda from the first stay. The service in the room this time was also like a change, apparently my "criticism" had an effect, 2 full rolls of toilet paper, everything was sparkling clean (except for the bathtub, which had seen better days...). All in all, I decided to increase the rating from three to four stars.Review from the 1st stay 2 weeks ago:Room 🌟🌟🌟Breakfast 🌟🌟🌟🌟Service in the room 🌟🌟Other service (breakfast etc) 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Price-performance ratio 🌟🌟 (too expensive for what is offered)Overall 🌟🌟🌟, unfortunately not quite enough for 🌟🌟🌟🌟, but we are still not averse to further stays in this hotel :-).✅️Positive: Breakfast is all fresh (jam is the only point of criticism), service at reception and at breakfast is super attentive and friendly❌️Negative: Value for money, service in the room (on arrival there was only a quarter roll of toilet paper, and the next day only a quarter roll of toilet paper was provided again, the hotel has apologized for this and will make the staff aware of this accordingly) , room and cleanliness could be improved but it worked.

Family hotelStaff/services very friendly and helpful...Rooms bright, friendly, modern and comfortably furnished...Spacious and wheelchair accessible...Everything very clean...Breakfast very tasty 😋, lots of choice what your heart ❤ desires...Even if you, as a wheelchair user, cannot get into the domicile/breakfast roomNevertheless, the vault is very beautiful and everything is arranged with a lot of love and clearly...We were allowed to have breakfast upstairs on the terrace...If we could give more stars 🌟 we would give more..A small ramp was installed at the side entrance so that you can get in with a wheelchair or walker without any problems...Small mango in the bathroom, maybe a free shower chair for the shower and a holder on the toilet so that people with disabilities can hold and stand up better...We'd love to come back...

The Hotel Kern is a family-run hotel and hospitality is very important. The rooms are very clean and no carpeting. Perfect for allergy sufferers and those who value hygiene (like us).The sauna is very comfortable. You can register half an hour in advance and then they turn on the sauna. But you can also turn it on yourself and make the infusion of your choice yourself. Drinks are available from the refrigerator at an additional cost. There are loungers to relax on. The hotel is furnished with attention to detail.The breakfast buffet in a beautiful vaulted cellar is richly laid out. Everything your heart desires. Is regularly replenished and everything is fresh. The train station, pharmacy and Edeka are in the immediate vicinity.For sporty people there is a bicycle room with code, for disabled people there is a ramp into the hotel and elevator.We'll be back 😊

Family hotel - atmosphere with a Bavarian look, very friendly service, great breakfast.Our room was furnished with rustic charm in the farmhouse style, lots of wood, checked curtains, woven wicker chairs.It had a view of a small square at the front, see photo.The bathroom was a bit old fashioned but spacious and clean. It even had a window with a view of the church.We slept very well one night and had a fantastic breakfast.Overall, the old wing could possibly be renovated? The left wooden frame window was somewhat warped and was difficult to operate. It only closes properly if you know exactly where to push and press and which lever does what. Luckily, we remember windows like these from our childhood.And who still heats with a night storage heater these days? There are more modern and economical solutions ;-)Of course the old has its charm, the farmhouse paintings and old furniture are also something special....Thank you.
