"An un-planned two-night stay here, necessitated by the temporary failure of Lufthansa, was a pleasant experience as the hotel offered a large and comfortable room with great heating and good (if older) ensuite amenities."

“This family-run hotel strikes me as a practical base, especially for those arriving by train, given its proximity to the station. I noticed the free coffee/tea machine, which is a thoughtful touch, and the comfortable, generously sized rooms appear to offer good value; for me, this hotel balances convenience with a welcoming atmosphere.”
