What an amazing place to stay at while in Germany. Forget the 5 star hotels in downtown Frankfurt and visit this small gem in Hauenstein. The staff was unbelievable.  …

Helga and Klaus are perfect hosts for anyone who wants to spend time in the beautiful Rhineland region of Germany. The hotel is charming and modern. The food is great. Conveniently located to the train, transportation to and from the hotel is very easy. I highly recommend Gasthaus Waldesruh.

Stayed here for one night! My room was clean and well prepared. Breakfast was included. It was not very impressive but okay for the price I guess (bread, butter, cheese, ham, marmelade). I can recommend as there was nothing majorly bad!

Tired and weary we could not find a room for the night when travelling but were recommended here on the OLD road out of Hauenstein. You can see it from the new road but will be too late by then. …

Unfortunately, we weren't happy with the food, even though the inn was recommended to us: frozen vegetables, spaetzle from a bag, ready-made sauce, with such a taste that someone who can't even begin to cook can make it at home and then it tastes better. But there may be dishes here that taste better. Unfortunately, the price-performance ratio isn't right at all. The service was very nice! The ambience and interior in the guest room and especially in the toilets is from 1980.

Unfortunately only 1 star for general...Service and reception were very friendly and accommodating, the location for our destination was perfect.... But unfortunately that was it.As you can read in the previous reviews, we unfortunately have to confirm that the vegetables and the side dishes (rösti) were frozen. Not fresh. 😔 The mixture was also drinks without the burner. But if you are extremely hungry and thirsty, you ignore it at that moment. The same goes for the rooms, we had a double room... very outdated. Wallpaper was hanging off the walls, windows weren't tight (it was very cold) but it was clean.Totally overpriced gastro (25 euros for frozen food per person) as well as the room (96 euros) plus 20 euros breakfast for 2 people... Was disproportionate.

Simple but tidy rooms. Suitable for a detour or hiking stay. Parking directly at the house.Went there again for dinner today. Very tasty, everything fresh and beautifully prepared. We got a table with 5 people and were served very nicely.Always my pleasure.
