We arrived at short notice and everything went well. The staff throughout the hotel, reception, restaurant and in the outdoor area are very friendly and offer very good service. The room was very clean, friendly and comfortably furnished.The best part of our stay came at the end… we accidentally left the interior light on our car overnight and the battery was dead. The boss immediately stopped his work on the site and gave us jump-start assistance with his Mercedes truck, including pushing our car out of the parking space. It just doesn't get any nicer. We'd love to come back.

We can only say good things about the Berggasthof Banzer Wald. The location is idyllic and quiet, the staff is friendly and helpful, the rooms are clean and nice. We cannot agree with the negative reviews about the rooms being too small, we (1 adult, 2 small children and a dog) had enough space, despite the extra bed. The in-house playground is very nice and perfect, especially for older children. An additional plus point is that dogs are allowed (not often found in the district). All in all, our stay was great and we would love to come back

I recently stayed at Berggasthof Banz and would like to share my experiences.The hotel is located in a quiet environment, which creates a relaxed atmosphere. The view of the Banz Monastery and nature is beautiful.The breakfast was good and offered a decent selection of food. Everything was fresh and attractively presented.The room was quite small but clean. However, there is a significant need for renovation, especially in the bathroom (see photos, everyone can see for themselves and judge whether they would like to stay here). The decor is a bit dated and could do with a refresh.The free coffee bar was a nice touch. The staff at breakfast were very friendly.There is no dinner on site yet, which is a bit inconvenient if you don't want to eat out after a long day.Overall the stay was okay, but there is definitely room for improvement. The quiet location and the good breakfast are plus points, but the wet room spoils the overall picture somewhat.I hope this review meets your expectations! Is there anything else you would like to add?
