We stayed at the Hotel Kilian as a couple for 2 weeks in May and we can only report positive things. It is an absolute feel-good place and the Willgeroth family is very careful to ensure that nothing is missing. The day starts with a lovingly put together breakfast buffet with everything you need to start the day strengthened. It is constantly topped up, even if there are only a few guests in the house. If you want to have breakfast on the terrace, you can do that too. They are also open to special requests and implement them on a daily basis... even some star hotels can't do that. There is always time for a little chat (if you want) and you get tips for all sorts of excursions, activities, restaurants... etc. The center, with many delicious restaurants and small shops, is a 5-minute walk away. There is also a bus stop just 250 m from the hotel and you can easily get to the surrounding towns. The rooms are equipped with everything you need for a pleasant stay, even if everything is a bit old. It didn't bother us and if you're looking for a chic hotel, please go to another hotel and spend more money instead of getting annoyed afterwards and giving bad reviews.It should be mentioned in passing that both operators smoke and there may occasionally be a slight odor irritation if that bothers anyone. I (as a non-smoker) could live with it and if it bothers you, you can ask for a room on the 2nd floor, as there will definitely be no smell.Our conclusion: If you are looking for a quiet holiday home with a feel-good atmosphere, lovely people and lots of hiking and excursion options nearby, this is the right place for you. We would have liked to stay longer, but at some point even the best vacation comes to an end. Thank you again for the wonderful time, both of you.

Very familiar and nice welcome. The couple showed a lot of trust and they were able to express their wishes. I was able to sleep in individually and when I came back the room had been cleaned. Gladly again.

The Pension Kilian is a familiar and very pleasant accommodation. If you don't mind the somewhat rustic atmosphere, you can get solid rooms in a very good location. You can quickly walk to anywhere you want to go. From restaurants, shops, the ice rink and the lift, everything can be reached in 10 to 20 minutes

We stayed at Pension Kilian from December 30th, 2023 to January 2nd, 2024.Rooms are simple but very clean and relatively large.The owners, Rainer and Claudia, are very nice and have an open ear for everyone.The breakfast buffet is very rich. Everything from scrambled eggs to cheese and sausage is included. Even fruit and vegetables are not missing.Anyone who wants to eat in the guesthouse in the evening will be amazed by Rainer's cooking skills.We were surprised with a great silver sterling menu. Starting with an appetizer roundel, followed by a lamb's lettuce soup and stuffed pork fillet wrapped in bacon, with vegetables and potato thalers, an espresso cream dessert followed.Afterwards, well-fed, we went to the decorated party cellar, where midnight soup was served after midnight.It was a very successful New Year's Eve.We have been there several times on our motorbike and it was definitely not our last stay with Rainer and Claudia.
