Booked the accommodation for two nights as part of a hike.We were greeted very friendly when we arrived in the evening. To our pleasant surprise, the next morning the owner offered to drive us around to our starting point for the hike. Thanks again for that. Otherwise we felt very welcome and comfortable. Highly recommended.Gladly again.

It was the first time we stayed there, it's a shame we didn't have that much time and it won't be the last time either. Next time we will stay longer.

The "hut" is a wonderful accommodation on the site. The landlord and landlady are very friendly and are available to give hikers advice and assistance. Great rich breakfast.

We have been to Thomas's Rennsteighütte several times with a motorcycle group of 4 people. Arrive and feel welcome! The rooms are simple but clean and cozy. The breakfast is delicious and also regional. In the evening, enjoy a delicious beer and delicious schnapps and liqueurs in the garden and have a chat with friendly guests - simply uncomplicated. We'll be back - life here is simply worth living 👍

We have been going to the Rennsteighütte in Frauenwald for a few years now. We feel very comfortable there and the two holiday apartments are perfect for our family vacation. The apartments are clean and practically furnished.The manager of the house is open to every question and request. The staff is also very friendly. We'd love to come back and maybe the good connection at the top will help ensure there's a little more snow next year. 😉

It is a very simple house with furniture that is very old. The shower room in my single room was very small; a fat person would have had trouble getting to the toilet. …
