Guest reviews
What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Ich habe dieses Hotel als ersten Zwischenstopp auf meiner Rennsteigwanderung gewählt. Könnte mir aber auch vorstellen, das es für längere Aufenthalte auch ein super Domizil ist. Das Einzelzimmer sowie das dazugehörige Bad war sehr schön, sauber, ruhig und ich habe mich direkt wohlgefühlt. Herr Beck war super freundlich & das Frühstück hat auch gestimmt. Preis-Leistung stimmt dort auf jeden Fall. Ich komme definitiv wieder.”
“Sehr weit oben gelegen, Fußweg über viele Stufen. Essen und Getränke gut. Service lobenswert.”
“Das Hotel ist sehr sauber und gepflegt. Das Zimmer war sehr geräumig und toll eingerichtet. Die Aussicht einfach Klasse. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker und hat uns sehr gut auf die weitere Strecke vorbereitet. Danke für die tolle Zeit.”
“Absolut empfehlenswert. Super freundlicher Betreiber... wunderschönes Zimmer. Einmalige Aussicht. Preis Leistung stimmt. Frühstück einfach aber lecker und ausreichend und liebevoll angerichtet. Wir kommen gerne wieder.”
