Burg Hotel

“Away from it all”

The hotel is located at one of the Black Forest's highest points (1389m), which in itself is a plus if you're looking for cooler weather.

The hotel is located at one of the Black Forest's highest points (1389m), which in itself is a plus if you're looking for cooler weather. Beautiful walking trails all around, the map collection captured in a grandma's file kept at Reception. The property is very well located for skiing I imagine, with magic carpets & ski shops/restaurants next to the hotel. In non-ski periods (like when we went), there's just one open cafe nearby (with a great view), besides the restaurant the hotel itself. Rooms- very clean, well maintained, toilets modern. An empty minibar to store your stuff. Reception- staff were friendly enough, with passable English. Restaurant- excellent food & service, though pricey. While booking the stay, the hotel offered a fairly expensive price for dinner, but didn't needlessly push it (unlike some other larger hotels in the area, which is why we chose to stay with them). We ate some dinners at a pizzeria six km away, a hit with children. Breakfast- Good spread. with a variety of fresh breads, cheese and fruits. They make eggs to order, though that's not advertised - you have to ask. The only downside is they make you sit on the same table throughout your stay (dinner/breakfast), which makes it a little boring. Parking- limited in the free spaces. You could book a garage spot for €5 per night, recommended if you're going during a busy period. Nearby sights- the Feldburg turm (tower) is a 5 minute drive from the hotel, with a €14 cable car to the top. The 450m suspension (walking) bridge in Todtnau, a 15 minute drive, was a great find for us, completely unexpected in the middle of nowhere. Lake Titisee with all its attractions is a 20 minute drive. Shopping: Lidl and a few other shops/cafes a 6 minute drive from the hotel. Overall, we had a great time and plan to be back.

“Warm Staff - nice location”

The staff there were so lovely and the hotel itself is quiet and well situated (we had a car). We booked a family room with balcony which also has two toilets which is great if you have a few people. It was lovely to have the balcony to sit out on in the afternoon. There was a continental breakfast… more

The staff there were so lovely and the hotel itself is quiet and well situated (we had a car). We booked a family room with balcony which also has two toilets which is great if you have a few people. It was lovely to have the balcony to sit out on in the afternoon. There was a continental breakfast with boiled eggs in a lovely room. The kitchenette is fine but extremely limited if you actually wanted to cook or anything. It has very limited supplies but luckily we only needed the fridge. The pillows were super uncomfortable for me and had we stayed longer I would have needed something else. I think they could benefit from having soap dispensers (most the hotels in Germany we stayed in have them now) in the shower rather than the very small gel/shampoo bottles. The parking is a bit limited but we managed to park a little down the path. I also think the rooms could benefit from having some fans as in the summer it gets quite hot and no air conditioning. We stayed here but traveled the 20 mins by car to badeparadies schwarzwald (Day Spa and Waterpark) , in Titisee and it makes a great relaxing day and great fun for the kids.

“Very good”

First time skiing and we booked a hotel direct at the snow in Feldberg. Very nice hotel, friendly staff. Clean rooms and the once with a view on the mountain are Nice to wake up into. Wellness was alsof very nice. The only downside for us was the fixed seating in the restaurant.
