I have no idea what to write... Former youth hostel with a strange flair. Has everything and more. Or not. Anyway, an experience. Am I coming back? Yes, I think so..

We went on a school trip here. The service was very nice and the food was very good. There were fresh salads and rolls etc. every day. Some of the rooms were very nice and renovated and some were a bit older. But overall everything was fine.

My daughter went on a school trip to the “Hotel Drei Bären” for two nights.She and other students agreed that they did not feel comfortable there:- there were beetles on one bed- the mattresses were partly on theUnderside moldy- the bed sheets were stained- There were silverfish in the bathroom- the food was cold and...neutral in taste- Staff hardly talked to guestsYou don't expect luxury, but a feel-good atmosphere is definitely different.

Former youth hostel, the "charm" is unfortunately still there. We were only in the room to sleep and it was ok for that.

Spacious and clean, old furnishings with heavy signs of wear. Bed was fine. 60 euros seems way too much for the old hostel room but that seems to be normal here in the Harz...Breakfast was plentiful and good selection. An additional 14 euros.

Former youth hostel, still with this charm. Price-performance too high for that. Cold in the “bathroom cabins”. Breakfast, well. Good location for winter sports activities.

It is not easy to rate the hotel as it is under renovation.It used to be a youth hostel, which you can tell.The staff tries hard.Unfortunately the restaurant was closed when we were there.There was a small kiosk at the reception.The apartment we had had the bathroom newly renovated and very tastefully decorated
