Good accomodition if you have more than one child. Small clean rooms. Nice pool, but busy with aquayoga. Tiny village. Good bakery below the hotel.

Simple facilities

The hotel room has no WIFI coverage at all. Can only go downstairs for internet, room facilities are very basic. The restaurant downstairs is good.

Not truly family-friendly – disappointing stay. We booked this hotel because it claimed to be family-friendly, but it was a big letdown. The pool was out of order (without any warning), and with it, the sauna was unavailable too — a major reason we chose this place. The “playground” they promised in the listing? Not at the hotel. It’s somewhere in the village, which isn’t the same thing. Our room faced the main street, making it noisy at night, and the blackout curtains left a huge 50 cm gap — so forget about proper sleep. If you’re looking for a relaxing, family-friendly stay, I’d recommend looking elsewhere.

Tolles Hotel mit schönen Restaurant und Pool

Das Hotel ist ruhig gelegen. Man kann sich in Ruhe erholen und bei einen Besuch im Restaurant den Abend ausklingen lassen. Preise und Angebot vollkommen in Ordnung. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Auch der Sprung in den Pool lädt zum gemütlichen Schwimmen ein.

Kamers waren erg gehorig we hadden ook nog eens de pech dat we onder de trap sliepen dus elke keer als iemand de trap op en af liep werden we wakker. Het zwembad was cloudi en de service in het restaurant was bagger. Ze zijn heel langszaam, ik moest op begevevn moment een half uur wachten op de rekening en uiteindelijk na een half uur kwam ze naar ons toe dat we vooraan moesten betalen?? en ze waren met veel te weinig mensen. Het eten was wel lekker. Voor dat ene nachtje wat ik verbleef was het okee maar ik zou dit NOOIT meer boeken.

Dörflich gelegener Ort, neben einer Kirche gelegen. Die Betten haben sehr weiche Matratzen, Zimmerservice kam nicht zum sauber machen trotz Schild an die Türe hängen, wir mussten selbst Toilettenpapier an der Rezeption holen. Die Zimmer sind zweckmäßig eingerichtet und in Ordnung teils schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Poolbereich war sauber und ordentlich. Das Frühstück war okay aber Preis-Leistung-Verhältnis war zu unangemessen. Das Essen im Restaurant war top.
