A very nice , quiet location next to a nature park. Great walking trails , nice outdoor spaces. The rooms were very clean, but on the small side. The staff was very nice and accommodating, however the food was too salty and often cold, or overcooked.

A bit old fashioned Bavarian restaurant with solid dishes. The atmosphere is not the coziest but the food is good and they have a big variety of wild game dishes.

Lovely location in a Nature Park, with forest walks and some indigenous wild animals as well as the fantastic bird calls during the early morning hours. The rooms are spacious and well appointed and clean. …

Great place to stay with children. They have a large playground right out back and animals roam the area. The location is a bit remote, but that's probably what you're looking for if you stay here. …

We had a great stay! Came by bicycle along the Limes cycle path. We were helped in many ways. Maps, advice, friendliness. And - very unusual - but highly appreciated - the hotel owner kindly gave us the service of doing our cycle laundry. We stayed an additional night. Gave us great rest in wonderful environment!!

I stayed here as part of a large group who had exclusive use of the hotel the days we were there. ||My room was a delightful attic room on 2nd floor of main building, but perhaps not suitable for anyone who was very tall.. …

Another last minute, crazy attempt on a major long holiday weekend to simply find a place to spend the night between destinations. We really lucked out with this family-orientated hotel. …
