“Very good hotel with comfortable, clean rooms.”

This hotel is an excellent home base to explore the area around the Lake of Constance. Staff is friendly and helpful, and the room we had was very spacious with all the creature comforts ( fridge, coffee maker) and a comfortable bed. You can have breakfast at an extra charge, and it is the typical German breakfast ( buns, bread, jam, muesli, yoghurt, boiled eggs, cheese and cold cuts. Some fruit is also offered. This hotel is a distance away from the lake( 10 minutes drive from Meersburg), but it is a very nice place to stay on a road trip through the area.

Excellent Hotel well situated for what we needed, friendly staff , off street parking . Our Room was comfortable but the bathroom was some what small. For us Bridge we found the restaurant extremely good with menus in English making things so much easier but the only confusing thing was they have two restaurants one of which by all accounts serves traditional German cold food. Breakfast was Superbad with only usual that you expect of a continental breakfast but with a few extra twists.... Enjoy ...

“Economical and a bit out of the way, good restaurant”

It's a quirky place with renovated rooms. The evening front desk fellow was ok, but he wasn't able to do things like fix our room safe (which was locked when we arrived). The day lady seems to know all the ins and outs of things, and she is nice to chat with. There really isn't much around the hote… more

It's a quirky place with renovated rooms. The evening front desk fellow was ok, but he wasn't able to do things like fix our room safe (which was locked when we arrived). The day lady seems to know all the ins and outs of things, and she is nice to chat with. There really isn't much around the hotel, so you'll only be staying here if you arrive by car.I think there was a speed camera as you enter town coming from the east, so slow down. The breakfast buffet had good selection with fresh bread, cheese, pastries, yogurt, and the like. Service was friendly. The restaurant also serves lunch and dinner, including traditional German food. There are lots of hotel reviews here, so I'll give some details about going to Konstanz, as that's a likely stop for many tourists staying here. If you don't want to drive into Konstanz, you can catch a bus in front of the hotel (you don't need exact change, just small enough bills). But it only comes once an hour after a certain time in the morning (I can't remember if that was 9 or 10) and takes something like 20 mins to get to Meersburg . It drops you in Meersburg, but the ferry you take to Konstanz is actually on the other side of the town. It's a scenic little town, but give yourself some extra time on the way back to catch the bus, since it will take another hour for the next one. Sternen has the all important bus schedule brochure at the front desk. If you drive to Konstanz, you can roll your car right on the ferry and pay while it crosses the water. In Konstanz itself, that ferry port is not near to the part of town where all the sights are, so you'll either have to drive there and locate parking or take one of the public buses. There's a machine near the port where you can buy an all day bus pass.

“O.k. but loud”

This is a well run hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful. It was a warm day and it was nice to have a fan in the room. The room was clean. Everything was functional; simple but adequate. I have seen better breakfast buffets but this was o.k. The wifi was good and the beds were pretty comfortabl… more

This is a well run hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful. It was a warm day and it was nice to have a fan in the room. The room was clean. Everything was functional; simple but adequate. I have seen better breakfast buffets but this was o.k. The wifi was good and the beds were pretty comfortable. My only complaint is that , even though this hotel is off the beaten track, it is situated on a loud street. Our window was facing this street and it was very loud. It didn't help matters that at 8 AM, they had to start using the loud leaf blowers. They could have waited at least an hour. It would have been better to stay on the other side of the hotel with a quieter room.

“Friendly staff - quiet location - but there were cobwebs 😟”

Our only complaint was that the room allocated to us had a few unwanted tenants camping in the corners of the ceiling. I had to get my husband to evict the spiders lodging up there before I could attempt to go to sleep. We were surprised at the extent of the spiders webs all over the ceiling. The r… more

Our only complaint was that the room allocated to us had a few unwanted tenants camping in the corners of the ceiling. I had to get my husband to evict the spiders lodging up there before I could attempt to go to sleep. We were surprised at the extent of the spiders webs all over the ceiling. The room needed a really good Hoover. Other than that other aspects of the room were clean and comfortable. The local fish dish was good bit the Cesar salad was a bit wet and warm. 😟 The staff were friendly and it seemed a popular place for locals to eat. The area is beautiful so don't let this review put you off going.
