We stayed at the hotel for three days with a group of 15 people and it was perfectThe reception was very nice, the staff and the boss were very helpful, the room was very nice, newly renovated and large, the bathroom was huge and very clean, even though the room faced the street you didn't hear any traffic.We ate in the hotel on two evenings and it was more than just good, it was excellent, the chef knows what he is doing and spoiled us with a plate language and with pleasures that you rarely getThe breakfast also leaves nothing to be desired, from fruit to scrambled eggs that are freshly preparedThe service staff is very attentive but never intrusive, doesn't overlook anything and is very niceThe house is from 1902 and has its charm that defines it. The only drawback is that if someone has walking difficulties, it is unfortunately not suitable because there is no liftYou can get to the city center in 10 minutes on foot, so you can leave your car in the hotel parking lotIf we are in the area again we will definitely book at the old Fritz again

We stayed here for a weekend at the Nürburgring and found a very nice hotel. The pictures on the internet are not fake. We felt very comfortable. The breakfast was plentiful and the family treated everyone unobtrusively but courteously. If we visit again, we will book at the Alten Fritz again.

I was lucky enough to stay in this hotel-restaurant with four people on a pilgrimage on the Eifel Camino. The Hotel zum alten Fritz turns out to be a real pearl.Check-in was very uncomplicated and the rooms were clean and extremely well furnished. We would particularly like to highlight the cuisine and the food. It's always a pleasure to see that specialist staff are the ultimate here.All the food we enjoyed was fresh and stylishly prepared. We had the impression that it was a modern, contemporary cuisine that always used regional and seasonal products. The daily menu is particularly recommended. Whether meat, fish or vegetables – everything was served perfectly.A special highlight was that the head of the house was actively involved in both service and the kitchen. This gives the stay a very personal and inviting touch.I have to emphasize that we have rarely found such a great restaurant in the Eifel. The young team was highly motivated and very attentive when serving. A small wish on my part would be that the food was explained when it was served, as everything on the plate was excellently presented and this would certainly enrich the experience.I can recommend this restaurant to everyone – be it pilgrims or spontaneous hotel guests.
