We were in Minden with 20 people for a cycling weekend and felt very comfortable in the hotel. The beer garden and the pool also ensured relaxation after the bike rides. If the restaurant is not open, you can help yourself from the guest refrigerator (on a trust basis). Attentive hosts at the breakfast buffet. Here we restocked early and prepared fresh scrambled or fried eggs.

The rooms are modern and clean.The hotel is located on a main street and can be noisy at night if the windows are open.Breakfast was OK and sufficient.Parking spaces for bicycles available.The hosts are friendly.However, for the location and appearance, I find it to be a slightly higher price for one night. But that's my feeling.

I can't say much about the service itself other than being friendly and helpful. Had a problem in the room and it was fixed immediately.The room I wanted was taken and I got an alternative room, which was very large and pretty. Old and rustic, but nicely done. Unfortunately the cleanliness wasn't that great. Lots of dust and dirt in the “living room”. There were prints on the shelf from glasses that had probably been there some time ago. Unfortunately, everything is very, very noisy. The smell in the entire hotel took some getting used to.Location was ideal for my needs.
