The furniture in the room was getting old. Our room was nice and big, the mattresses were nice and firm and the bathroom was newly renovated. The staff was very friendly.PS: You don't need an alarm clock, the church bell next door takes care of it😉

The hotel has an excellent location on the lake with a mountain panorama.We only used the restaurant. The food was terrible and I don't understand the praise for the food here.I ordered a lasagna that looked like it came from a vending machine. Consisting of 2 pasta sheets and a miracoli sauce in between. Serving, about three forks.Labeled “homemade lasagne” for €15.My partner was also unhappy. Dumplings with ready-made sauce.It was only 4:30 p.m., maybe the kitchen wasn't open yet, only small dishes.However, you cannot offer something like that. Then it's better to consistently do nothing.Unfortunately not recommended!! ...except the good location.

Fantastic location by the lake. Viennese schnitzel eaten: nicely souffled, pleasantly seasoned, very tender. Crispy fries.
