Had a perfect weekend at the hotel last week. Check-in was very quick, the hotel owner was very welcoming❤️ thoughtful and meticulous, the breakfast was of high quality and the coffee was delicious. We had a lot of fun team building here, the place is very open and the layout is beautiful. The room is hygienic and clean, and the spa room is beautiful. It's a pity that I didn't have time to enjoy it due to limited time. I will definitely make it up next time. I highly recommend it to everyone as the most cost-effective hotel.

I arrived at the hotel as an exhausted hiker and was immediately warmly welcomed. The beer garden was an absolute highlight! Despite the late hour, I was still able to have a drink there and they even offered delicious snacks (the nuts are unique). The entire staff was very friendly and accommodating. A perfect place to have something to eat and drink in the beer garden after a long hike or bike ride and then relax in the beautiful room with a good night's sleep. I'll definitely be back!
