A lovely village which we always enjoy very much, but next time in another property.
Pros:

We have stayed at the property before and have always found the management and staff very pleasant and helpful.
The property is in a perfect location. The apartment we stayed in was extremely comfortable and very well equipped, although I had not realised that our appartment was on the top floor, with a lot of stairs to negotiate.

Cons:

When I went to check in I found the manager fairly unwelcoming, especially as we had stayed at least four or five times either at the hotel itself or in one of the apartments. There was barely a smile from him and also we went to the apartment block where we had stayed previously, not knowing that we were in another one nearby, so we had to return to the hotel for directions. He should have told us exactly where when we checked in. We very much like the village, but we are reluctant to return to the Altkolnischerhof because of their casual attitude. When you come back to a hotel you like and where you have stayed various times, it is strange to be treated so casually.

Pros:

Lage, Ausstattung, Check in und Check out sehr unkompliziert

Cons:

Altglas im Küchenschrank, Gefrierfach vereist, Bad lange nicht richtig gereinigt. Haare der Vorgänger noch überall auf dem Boden verteilt. Spiegel, Ablagen etc. sehr staubig. Fernseher konnte trotz Kompatibilität nicht mit dem Internet verbunden werden.

Fantastic stay!
Pros:

Fantastic stay! Perfect for a family of five. Loved the restaurants near by, the bakery and all the walks. Very handy to have the small supermarket across the street available too. Would absolutely recommend.

This was one of our most enjoyable hotel experiences in Germany. Thank you for everything!
Pros:

This was one of our most enjoyable hotel experiences in Germany. A pristinely clean room. Spectacular location. A very comfortable bed. Air conditioning, and many other amenities. The breakfast was excellent (not to mention the stunning dining room). We upgraded last minute to a deluxe room with a balcony, and it was worth every penny. The staff was extremely kind and accommodating. If we are every back in the area, we will be sure to stay again.

Very good
Pros:

One of the best hotels within the town, the balcony, location

Cons:

No restaurant or bar.
Bathroom layout / bath + shower configuration is very average
When we arrived, it would have been great to sit and have a drink at one of the outside tables
