Ideal for bus tourists. Fast processing...eaten a la carte. Unfortunately the steaks were well cooked. Juicy prices for that. Plus point for the toilets, like on the Starship Enterprise.

Only suitable for 01 night - conveniently located on the motorway - stayed in the adjacent building (old house) - furnishings very old - beds were creaky - mattresses needed to be replaced - no luggage rack

Super beautifully located in the Anlautertal. Easy to reach from the A9. Super nice location also for company events. Nice staff and a dedicated boss who warmly welcomes the guests. The food is great and the highlight is the view in the building of the exposed Jura rock wall near the toilets. You have to come up with an idea like that first. Gladly again at any time.

After our car broke down on the A9 shortly before Greding (we were on the way to Croatia), we were taken by the ADAC to the Hotel Heckl in Enkering shortly after midnight and, despite the unpleasant circumstances, we were thrilled to see our cheerful and friendly boss Hubert Heckl at 12:30 a.m were received! This family business is run very warmly and we had a short time at the bar (accompanied by ZZ Top & AC/DC music videos - exactly our time! 🤗), which was declared “still open” for us despite the late hour ( Even the warm-hearted employee who was just about to go home after a long day at work stayed extra!), a great conversation with two people who love their job & have their hearts in the right place!Thank you very much for this wonderful experience - and all the best for the future!
