We were allowed to be guests for 2 nights and were thrilled.- the double room was clean, large and had everything you needed- Parking spaces directly in the courtyard in front of the hotel- Breakfast is available just a few meters away in the “old bathhouse”. My breakfast is basically limited to an orange juice so I can't say anything about that - my wife was happy though so I would say: everything was great!- Dinner in the hotel restaurant was very good and is also really recommended for “non-hotel guests”! fast, very courteous service and great food.- consistently friendly and courteous employees and a nice boss who gave us a few tips for the laga.We would like to thank you for the lovely stay and if we ever end up in Bad Dürrenberg again, it would definitely be our first port of call.Best regardsfamily kiss/franke

We had booked the suite in the old Salzamt for two nights. Very spacious and beautifully furnished! Breakfast was in the old bathhouse and this could easily be reached with a tiny little walk. The breakfast buffet was completely sufficient and the food in the evening restaurant was excellent. Highly recommended to reserve a table here straight away. Prices absolutely reasonable.Thank you for the nice stay - we are happy to recommend it.

Hotel in historic walls located directly on the Saale and directly next to a salt pan park. Our room was modern and functional, had a sufficiently large bathroom and comfortable beds. The breakfast buffet was varied and offered good value for money.

Very nicely located HOTEL...We received a very nice welcome. The suite was very well maintained and huge at a great price. The absolute highlight, however, was the food in the restaurant. Everyone should take that with them.

For this hotel you would have to give much more than 5 stars. Everything about it is perfect here, from the service to the food. The bicycle garages in every room are also very nice. Tips for excursions and the state horticultural show were given in detail by the boss and his staff and with little jokes. Great keep it up,we will be back.

I had booked a budget room with a bathroom across the hall to visit the garden show.Everything was great!The guest house is almost on the garden show grounds, the view from the room window of the Saale weir, the nice tips from the boss, the breakfast,...everything is perfect.The next night I slept in a state-of-the-art bunk in Leipzig, and the difference was noticeable, even though there was a bathroom in the room.Conclusion: Perfect accommodation and meal recommendation for visiting the garden show!
