Traditional and charming hotel with very service-minded staff!

8.0

Very welcoming and hospitable staff. We got a nice and airy room. The breakfast was varied and good. Peaceful place.

The water pressure in the shower was low. Maybe it was because we had a room on the top floor.

Excellent stay with 5 star food and service!

10.0

Everything was fantastic especially the serving staff in the restaurant. Food was 10/10 with all the dishses. Cheers to the lady who was extremely friendly and helped us at the dinner plus got us milk in a thermos for our little one :)

Beds could be a bit comfortable/better :)

Couldn’t recommend more

10.0

Absolutely exceptional. The photos don’t do it justice. The staff were incredibly nice and forthcoming, the rooms were really lovely and cozy with modern bathrooms. There were lots of extras and nice touches. The restaurant food was really good. Location ace, with incredible views.

Honestly can’t think of anything bad about it

Das nette Personal und das schöne Zimmer.

Das Doppelbett hätte breiter sein können.

Lovely but

8.0

Perfect location and setup

One threatening email that was submitted just before we arrived: check out time is 10am if you are later than this you will be charged for a late stay. Is that really necessary? Just put a downer on an otherwise positive experience. Just spoilt it really, the threat hanging over you. Need to remove this from your approach, doesn’t matter how many nice toiletries and touches you put into your exceptional location if the only communication with your guests is to threaten them.
