Top German Fairy Tale Route Hotel Reviews

Dolce by Wyndham Bad Nauheim

10/10 Excellent

"Great staff! Friendly and professional. The property is very clean, very comfortable and in a great location to walk the park, hike trails or walk the city. We will stay here again."

Hotel Klingelhöffer

8/10 Good

"This hotel is in a few buildings up this old street. We had to leave our building to get back to the brain building for breakfast. We were given a key that unlocked our room but also the front and back doors of our building. We were up on 3. No elevating a narrow stair. But we enjoyed being just a block from the old part of town and were there for their night light show"

Best Western Plus Hotel Steinsgarten

10/10 Excellent

"Great WiFi, clean room, helpful staff, wonderful selection at breakfast. Pool was lovely, towels available there. Outdoor seating was relaxing after a day of walking around the city. I wish they varied their selection of beers in the cooler as I find Jever too bitter. Bitburger or Licher preferred. Overall, a great experience and we would book there the next time we visit Gießen."
