We were there for a birthday party. Service, food, atmosphere, everything was great. We felt very comfortable and occasionally went to an air show in the neighboring falconry. A great change!!!

Last week we hiked on the Rennsteig and stayed overnight at the Waldhotel Rennsteighof. It was very cozy, the food tasted excellent, there was peace and quiet in the middle of the forest. The service is particularly noteworthy. When we arrived at the Hohe Sonne in pouring rain and the rest of the way to the hotel was still a long way, we called the hotel and the nice innkeeper picked us up personally and drove us to the hotel. That was a huge plus point for us and showed us how courteously the hotel treats its guests. Thank you from Ms. Müller and Ms. Bartsch.

We had a fairly pleasant stay. The televisions in the rooms should be reset.Scrambled eggs for breakfast shouldn't be a problem in a hotel like this.
