Séjour parfait

Je suis tombée amoureuse de cet endroit il y a un an. J’ai décidé d’y retourner cette année pour la fête des Chrysanthèmes cette fois ci accompagnée de mon conjoint et un couple d’amis. L’emplacement est idéal, au calme. Les chambres sont très spacieuses. Le tour du lac est très agréable. Le petit déjeuner était très bien et la dame de la réception vraiment très gentille. A l’année prochaine! 😃

Für den Preis ist die Unterkunft sehr sehr gut. Das Einchecken ist ungewöhnlich (am Eingang des Restaurant hängt ein abgeschlossener Kasten, diesen kann man mit einem Code öffnen, dieser Code ist am Kasten auf einem Zettel angebracht). Das Zimmer war sehr groß und gut ausgestattet. Matratzen waren in Ordnung. Badewanne war vorhanden aber kein Duschvorhang (deshalb beim Duschen aufpassen). Aber wie gesagt für den Preis einfach TOP.

Kun sommerhotel?

Sidste år havde vi en god oplevelse på hotellet og i den hyggelige “Biergarten”, men i år åbnede restauranten ikke før kl.17 og var kun åben for hotellets få gæster. Vi følte vi kom lidt til besvær - hotellet virkede nedlukket. Fungerer nok bedst om sommeren. Betjeningen i restauranten var fin og maden var god.

Good beer but that's about it

Pros - Nice breakfast (but get there early as there are no refills of the food). Conveniently located a short drive to the town and convenient for onward travel. Evening meal was tasty and good onsite brewed beer. Nice setting when you arrive, small animal paddock, lake and peacocks strolling around! Cons - practical yet extremely dated room and damaged flooring and appliances, our room was located in the opposite building to the brauhaus. Despite the above, which we can live with, our review reaction to this hotel is driven by 2 points that really influence a hotel experience - (1) the service from start to finish felt as if we were an inconvenience staying; (2) The Friday night live band and party literally outside our room which went on till 1am. People having fun is great, however I feel somewhat disrespected by being asked to and openly/happily paying for the booking on Friday morning, the morning before the party. Looking back on being asked it is almost as if they knew that many people would be frustrated by the noise level throughout the night. There was nobody on the reception desk for me to provide feedback and at no point during booking did the hotel indicate a 'lively' atmosphere. If you drink enough of the brewed beer I guess you will sleep through anything! Excluding the beer this hotel does not offer value for money considering the condition and quality of the room and really doesn't help itself with the service.

Hotel to be avoided

This was my first trip here as I had prebooked 2 week-ends. I wish I hadn't. The bad: difficult to check-in in the evenings as you have to hunt for someone and where to look? . Service very, very slow. A lot of late night noise from beer garden so disturbed sleep. More disturbed sleep the next morning from the resident peacocks wandering around and making their morning cries. We were locked in on our checkout day as the exterior door was locked and our key wouldn't turn the lock. I had to shout at someone from the window of our room. A clear danger in case of fire. Breakfast items fail to get replaced and you often have items that are gone. One or two of the staff are very unfriendly. Those same staff are slow and unhelpful - does the owner not check these things? The good: their homemade beers are good - when/if you can get served

God oplevelse.

Hotellet ligger meget idyllisk ved en sø og en å. Der er en dejlig have, hvor man kan nyde det hjemmebryggede øl. I restauranten er der god stemning - god mad til rimelige priser. Værelser er fine, rummelige og rene. En rigtig god oplevelse - vi vender gerne tilbage.

Charmant, mais en amélioration

Ce n'est pas un hôtel, mais plusieurs bâtisses historiques qui sont regroupés dans ce domaine qui est somme toute charmant. Il y a même un brasserie et l'on peut déguster les bières maisons (excellentes) mais pas les acheter (non, car le verre est consigné ! tant pis pour les touristes...) Par ailleurs, il faut quand même être à l'aise dans la langue de Goethe : le français n'est pratiqué que par la personne de l'accueil, et l'anglais très peu par le personnel. Et tous les menus et instructions quels qu'ils soient sont en allemand. Il n'y a pas d'ascenseurs pour les chambres (ce sont de vieilles bâtisses, je le répète), donc si votre chambre est au 1er ou au 2ème, il faut vous les monter vous même (non, il n'y a pas de bagagiste). Le resto est très bon, et attention les portions sont allemandes, c'est à dire, très généreuse, et un plat suffit bien pour 2 personnes (les desserts aussi). Les bières et les flammekueches suffisent souvent a faire apéro-repas. Enfin, le site est très bucolique et agréable avec son étang où l'on peut faire de la barque, se promener autour et voir les animaux (chèvres, ânes, et des paons en liberté). Les chambres sont (très) spacieuse et confortables. Pas de clim. Pas de volets électriques (il y a 5 fenêtres et faut mouliner pour fermer les volets un par un, au moins après le resto ça vous fait des biceps en acier :)). Il y a une TV, mais en fait elle sert de radio (?!) : il n'y a aucune chaines à part des stations de radios (allemandes).
