Business trip, 4 days. The hotel is located in the middle of the wonderful old town, it is a museum in itself. The rooms are well furnished and I slept wonderfully. I didn't take breakfast. It cannot be compared to a new hotel, but Wangen lives from its old charm and for this reason I can recommend this hotel, also for business travelers. Bakers, butchers, bars etc. are in the immediate vicinity.

Stayed here three times over Easter. Rooms really great. Two rooms. Bathroom big. However, with a bathtub, which unfortunately does not have a shower screen. This makes taking a comfortable shower impossible. A curtain or, better yet, a solid partition would be appropriate. The four-poster bed is really great. Mattresses far too soft for us. Back pain is inevitable. Otherwise everything was very clean. Breakfast standard. Fried eggs or resin-boiled eggs were freshly prepared. Employees very friendly. The location is great, except for the church (bells ringing😬). You can park in front of the hotel at night. For free. We had booked an underground parking space. 50 meters away, €8 per day. It's okay.

The hotel is very authentic and beautifully decorated. The single room was simply furnished, but everything necessary was there. There is a bathtub in the bathroom, which makes showering a little more difficult. The breakfast buffet was extremely good. I had to park my car in a public, paid parking lot. It's about 300 meters from the parking lot to the hotel, but it's tolerable. The location is very central, so there are some shops in the immediate vicinity of the hotel. The roof terrace offers a beautiful view over the city roofs. I can recommend the hotel!

The “Alt” in the name of the hotel says it all. You feel like you were 150 years ago. Old carpets, antique furniture and original details of the old interior. …

Time has stood still in this hotelThe “Alt” in the name of the hotel says it all. You feel like you were 150 years ago. Old carpets, antique furniture and original details of the old interior. There was an old four-poster bed in our room, which luckily was long enough (only getting out over the high edge was tiring). Unfortunately, the bathroom only had a bathtub without curtains, so a relaxing shower was not possible. The breakfast was excellent in an old drawing room. The bikes were locked in a corner against a wall. Unfortunately, the hotel prohibits bringing and charging bike batteries in the room and requires this to be done in the hotel lobby. The batteries and chargers are lying there in disarray (sometimes unattended). Anyone can take any batteries and chargers at any time, there are no controls or security of the guests' property - an untenable situation.
