Very good and friendly service, except for the lady at breakfast who couldn't say hello or smile. Breakfast buffet is sufficient and has everything you need, eggs are prepared to your personal request.The rooms are old, very noisy, in need of renovation and not clean. Unfortunately, I had to change the room I booked twice because in the single room the slope directly under the bed starts so low that you hit your head when getting up or get claustrophobic when sleeping. In the second room the shower partition had broken out of the guide rails. The third room is ok, just not clean, especially in the bathroom the shower drips and is not clean. As an apology there was a drinks voucher.Strange hair found in bed.The hallway carpets are neither vacuumed nor cleaned, not nice. It is difficult to feel comfortable in the hotel.Dinner in the restaurant, also difficult, open wines only limited, ordered serano ham and got ordinary ham, a shame because the presentation of the food was appealing.It's a shame, you could achieve better results with little effort.

We had a wonderful short vacation.The room was very nice and was at the back towards the Kronenpark, i.e. very quiet.The wellness program with whirlpool and massage table was included in our package, we had really good breakfast and dinner, with Hessian Verperplatte, as well as a delicious 3 and 4 course menu. The staff and the owner were very accommodating and friendly. All in all a successful weekend. In 2024 there will be a New Year's Eve gala with a buffet and live music, which sounds very promising. We wish the owners and staff continued good luck and success as they truly live and work for the well-being of their guests.

We had a spacious and quiet room with a good bed. I can't say anything about the food but the coffee at the service station at reception was very good. Great service. My leftover charging cable was sent to me without any problem. Thank you very much! We'd love to come back.

We went out to eat again today for a long time and were completely satisfied. There's nothing wrong with the summer menu ideas (all with a proper salad). The falaffels are perfect, the rösti are crispy and delicious, apart from the antipasti plate where the cooked cheese drowned out the rösti a bit. Prices reasonable. A nice beer garden with a good selection of drinks.

I was completely satisfied, the staff was totally attentive and very hospitable. I really liked the breakfast and the 24/7 counter with free water and coffee!Rooms are very comfortable and homely furnished, even if they are a bit older - the bathroom is definitely new and modern, you definitely feel comfortable!
