Sehr schön, trotz mangelhafter Internetverbindung

Sehr schön mit Liebe zum Detail. Leider gibt es keine ordentlichen Brötchen mehr zum Frühstück. Das war früher besser. Internet mangelhaft. Leider sehr schlechtes WLAN und Mobilfunk.

Es war alles sehr schön, besonders der SPA Bereich war neu und sehr sauber/gemütlich. Auf die Parkplatzgebühr von 4 EUro pro Nacht hätte man sich bei dem Preis eigentlich späten können.

Es war ein wunderbares Hotel mit einer sehr guten Küche, extrem freundlichen und zuvorkommenden Personal. Besonders hervorzuheben ist der exzellente Spa-Bereich. Die stündlichen Aufgüsse mit unterschiedlichen Aromen nebst kleinen Häppchen oder Schnäppchen waren sehr gut.

Entspannung pur

Sehr gemütliches Hotel, das Frühstück war ein Genuß und hatte für jeden was dabei. Der Spa-Bereich zwar nicht sehr groß, aber top! Mit kostenfreien Getränken, Essenskarte, stündlichen Sauna-Aufgüssen und Kaminzimmern zum Entspannen. Lage auch super, im Wald und keine 10 Fahrminuten von Ilmenau entfernt.
