Reviewed Jan 6, 2026Das Hotel liegt gerade im Dorfkern und ist gut mit dem Auto erreichbar. Das Zimmer war sauber und es gab gratis Pflegeprodukte welche man mitnehmen durfte. Da ich das Zimmer für den Geburtstag meiner Freundin gebucht habe, hatte ich das Personal gefragt, ob man beim Frühstück ein Happy Birthday oder ähnliches hinstellen könnte an unseren Tisch. Dies haben sie gemacht und meine Freundin hat sich gefreut. Das Buffet war hervorragen und wer weiss, vielleicht bin ich mal wieder in der Gegend. Kann das Hotel wärmstens empfehlen.
