“Homely and very friendly stay”

We stay here most of the time when visiting Hinterzarten because we enjoy the rather large and well equipped rooms. However the main reason to come back year after year is the friedliness of all staff and the owners. They always go the extra mile. A really lovely 3-star hotel with a good choice for breakfast. You can even chose between medium and soft eggs and they are exactly how I expect them. I always chose a room to the rear, they are very comfy and quiet. There is also a sauna available upon request at no extra cost

“Lovely Black Forest Hotel”

A lovely Black Forest hotel, situated on the edge of the forest and a good centre for exploring the area. I had a single room in the annex. It was quite large, but had no view, as it was built into the hillside. It was clean & comfortable. The food & staff were good & helpful

“A generally pleasant and well-priced hotel”

The initial experience wasn't fantastic, as we arrived on a Monday evening about 8PM, but the reception was closed, as it was the hotel's day off ("Ruhetag" in German). There was more than one bell, and one didn't seem to work, but a family or staff member answered the door after a short wait. Ther… more

The initial experience wasn't fantastic, as we arrived on a Monday evening about 8PM, but the reception was closed, as it was the hotel's day off ("Ruhetag" in German). There was more than one bell, and one didn't seem to work, but a family or staff member answered the door after a short wait. There was another short delay with finding our booking, but we were checked in and the staff member in question apologised for the problems. However, we soon settled in and still had time to find a meal at another local hotel / restaurant. The rooms were spacious and always cleaned well, although we did have to mention some light bulbs which didn't work. Not all the rooms have views and they are split across two wings of the building, but there were no actual problems with that. The only problem with the split layout is that the rear part of the building has to be accessed either via a stairway at the back of the restaurant, or across the car park outside. The car park is on rough ground in places and isn't well lit either, which requires some care, especially after dark. The restaurant area includes a recently renovated (and nicely furnished) bar, a more traditional dining area and an outside beer garden. The dining experience, both at breakfast and dinner, was generally good and the staff were pleasant. There is just one main letdown to the dining experience, and that is the presence of a number of flies in the dining room and kitchen (seen from the dining room), especially on the ceilings. There wasn't any obvious blue light hygiene system to deal with this. It may have partly been the time of year and even the location (near the forest) but it should be addressed somehow. We didn't mention it to the staff at the time, but we would welcome any comment or response on this matter.
