Urgemütliches kleines Hotel mit familiärer Atmosphäre und super freundlichem Personal. Sehr gutes Frühstück und sehr gute regionale Küche im Restaurant. Unbedingte Empfehlung. Gerne wieder.
Für Biker (motorisiert oder mit Pedale) das ideale Hotel mitten im Thüringer Wald. Abends gibts es leckeres Essen mit ausreichender Abwechslung. Das Bier ist sehr lecker, die Bedienung ein Original. Das Motorrad stand gut beschützt in der kostenlosen Garage.
Toute est parfait, sentiment d'être chez soi, un hôtel familial, chaleureux, des gens très sympathiques, bonne nourriture, je le conseille vivement d'y venir, seul où en famille :le parc naturel de Thuringen est tout autour, et sur les hauteurs, super 🏔️👌
nice experience the family run hotel was very pleasant the staff were great nothing was a problem even though i arrived late in the night Helda was prepared to make me something to eat . i was too tired and i did not think it was fair to put her through all that trouble.
i will definately come back
Wir waren leider nur 1 Nacht da, aber es hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Das Zimmer war groß, hübsch und vor allem sauber, ebenfalls das Bad.
Das Essen war hervorragend und die Seniorchefin (meine Guadste) Spitze.
Wir können das Gasthaus Steiger nur weiterempfehlen.
arrived late at night helde was really nice katreener was great as well i asked to borrow an iron it was not an issue good family run hotel

Hotel ok - Geruch und Freundlichkeit mangelhaft
Das Hotel ist insgesamt sehr veraltet und würde eine Erneuerung gut vertagen können. Unser Zimmer haben wir sauber vorgefunden. Leider hat es durchweg sehr nach "Stinkefuß" im Zimmer gerochen, was wahrscheinlich aus dem alten fleckigen Teppich ausdünstet. Das Zimmer wurde während des Aufenthaltes nicht gereinigt - nur die Betten wurden gemacht.
Negativ aufgefallen ist uns die "Freundlichkeit" der älteren Inhaberin, die uns und die Gäste wenig freundlich bedient und "keifig" bedient hat.
Hotel Restaurant: An sich lecker - nur unsere Kartoffeln wurden in der Mikrowelle aufgewärmt ("Ping" war zu hören) und haben dementsprechend schlecht geschmeckt.

Tolle Landschaft
Gastwirtschaft im Stil der 80er , könnte mal eine Überarbeitung vertragen, ansonsten nette Leute, und alles für den Aufenthalt ausreichend

Bürgerlich mit Herz & Schnauze
Wir waren im Februar dort zu Gast und wurden herzlich aufgenommen.
Clean, friendly staff, B-fast included, it has his own restaurant. They were very accommodating, after an unpleasant experience at another hotel we came back to Gasthous and they allowed us early check in and even to have bfast that morning, it was a relief to find again Gasthous. Will go back and stay again!!
