Only conditionally recommended. The location is very good for a short stay. Breakfast OK. The rooms in the Goethe House are getting old and extremely noisy. Prices in the restaurant are slightly above average. Employees are mostly friendly. Room service was supposed to come every two days but wasn't there once.

Vacation in October 2024:Once again I visited the Hotel Hofgut Sternen with my wife, my St. Bernard servant and my parents and, like the other two times, we were more than happy with our stay!Everything was perfect again!I especially have to acknowledge the friendliness and warmth of the hotel staff, no matter what their role is! This also applies to my dog! An absolutely dog-friendly hotel.The food, whether breakfast or dinner, is always sufficient and very tasty!The cleanliness of the rooms and the hotel complex should not go unmentioned!It was once again made for us and we will definitely visit the Hotel Hofgut Sternen again!Vacation in September 2023:Due to the very good experiences on our vacation in March 2023 (report below), we have decided to spend our vacation again in September 2023 at the Hotel Hofgut Sternen in Breitnau!And again it was absolutely right to choose this hotel!This time we were accompanied by my parents, who we gave the stay to as a gift for their birthdays and golden wedding anniversary. They were also enthusiastic about the great location of the hotel and the friendly and courteous staff.The rooms are great and the food, whether breakfast or dinner, was really tasty and filling.And don't forget that this is an extremely dog-friendly hotel! Capper, our Bernahrdiner, can only confirm that ;-)All in all, an all-round successful holiday, which is why we will definitely visit the Hotel Hofgut Sternen again.Thanks to the team for making it such a lovely holiday!Vacation in March 2023:About the hotel, the Hofgut Sternen in Breitnau:ABSOLUTELY TOP!From the location of the "facility" (the hotel consists of several buildings on a very large area), the room facilities, parking facilities, the friendliness and courteousness of the entire staff, whether at the reception, the hotel management, the service staff in the restaurant/breakfast room , the cleaning staff or the employees in the souvenir shops or the glass blowing factory, EVERYTHING was right here and contributed to us being able to spend a very nice time there.I was very happy that an “out of the ordinary” wish was fulfilled: I called the hotel 4 days before arrival and asked for a bouquet of flowers to be on the breakfast table on our wedding anniversary/my wife's birthday. This was fulfilled by the hotel, the bouquet of flowers was there as requested, and the table (breakfast and dinner) was decorated accordingly. The hotel didn't miss the opportunity to offer two glasses of champagne each morning and evening to celebrate the day. The staff also knew what was going on and they greeted us with congratulations! Something like that makes an impression and speaks for the Hofgut Sternen.Regarding the food: everything was great here too and no reason to complain: there was a sufficient buffet for breakfast and a delicious 4-course menu for dinner every day (with the possibility of swapping dishes), with the exception of one day when we had fondue enjoyed.The furnishings in our room were new and modern and offered no reason for complaint!Finally, I would like to point out that dogs are really welcome in this hotel and our Saint Bernard was welcome everywhere (he was even allowed into the restaurants)!We would, and already have, definitely recommend the hotel!

Actually a great facility. We had a room in the Ravenna House that was spacious and very pleasant.In the restaurant, a lot of emphasis is placed on the less you visit the guest, the earlier breakfast can be served. Unfortunately 😥😥😥The kitchen gave us really, really good soups as a starter. Unfortunately, the main course was carelessly prepared and tastelessly cooked.Everything served on cold plates“et voilá”You have to be persistent to get a second bottle of wine and you have to beg for another coffee with dessert.The breakfast buffet is a feeding place for the predators.If you live in hotels for around 260 days a year for work and then want to spend a nice evening with your family, it's a real shame to experience something like that.There is another way.

Our room was very clean and spacious. The room got top marks for being cool, dark and quiet. Perfect sleeping conditions in my opinion. Our bed was the most comfortable one we slept in the 3 weeks we traveled through Europe. …

Before our three-day trip to Hofgut Sternen we looked at various negative reviews and arrived with mixed feelings. Our impression after our stay: all nonsense! We had a very friendly welcome, the service in the restaurant was first class and the food was great. The location of the hotel is perfect for hiking enthusiasts, but you can also quickly get to Freiburg or other excursion destinations.Clear travel recommendation.
