This is tucked away from the hustle and bustle. We went here for dinner and the restaurant was very clean and the hostess was welcoming. Our service was great. One person had the fish which was really good and fresh, the steak was done exactly right. Finished with fresh made sorbet. Nice relaxing dinner.

This place was ten miles east of our town and we selected it randomly. Overall our stay was surprisingly good. Our very clean double room on the 2nd floor was ok but we had an end unit and lots of street noise. …

Outstanding food! One of the finest Jägerschnitzels I have had. My son had the steak, and thoroughly enjoyed it. The salad bar allows you to make that perfect dinner salad! Finally, wonderful service throughout dinner. Well done!

A small hotel with a very familiar atmosphere. We were there over the weekend, we had booked a romantic package. I recommend this package, it's reasonably priced, a suite, halb-board, jacuzzi and sauna is included. …

A clean, well priced hotel, right on the bus line. Wonderful breakfast and a fun beer garden. Great food! However, the best part of all is the wonderful customer service. …

Very friendly little hotel. Room is very spacious and very clean. Comfortable bed and plenty of towels. On the negative side there is no tea/coffee facilities in the room. But great value for money and it suited my needs. …

Can't speak for the hotel, but I've lived in Dansenberg for 4 years, and the restaurant is delicious, while the beer garden is something our whole family looks forward to in the late spring, summer, and early fall. Worth a trip even if you don't live here to listen to the birds singing, have a few delicious German beverages, and authentic cuisine. Bonus points if you come to a party event with live music!

As soon as I walked through the door I was made to feel welcome, so warm and hospitable are its owners (2 brothers and 1 sister team). …

[Hallo liebe Familie Fröhlich -- Ich bin Hertha Kullmann's Enkel, Kai! Ich hoffe es geht euch alle gut!] My wife and I haven't been back since 2006, but we had a lovely stay here then, and hope to return someday with our son, who's already 9 now. It's nice to see the hotel is as well-reviewed as ever -- the Fröhlich family has clearly continued their tradition of running one of the best hotels and restaurants in the greater KL area. We wish them many more great years, and can't wait to be back one day!
