Lage etwas abseits
Pros:

Relativ teuer, zu weit von Bayreth entfernt, kein Restaurant. Elektronischer Check-in nicht ganz unproblematisch. Einfaches Frühstücksbüffet. Sehr freundliches Personal.

Pros:

One of the nicest country hotels we've ever stayed. Sits peacefully at the edge of a nature area and all you hear is the sounds of nature. Hooting owls and woodpeckers. Lovely and we'll appointed room. Great breakfast and fantastic staff. Tremendous privacy!

Ein besonderes Hotel mit Charme und Kunst
Pros:

Geschmackvoll und modern renoviert, mit viel Liebe zum Detail, mit Kunstwerken dekoriert. Leider nachmittags kein persönlicher Service mehr, da kein Personal anwesend. Dafür am nächsten Morgen hervorragendes Frühstück und nette und aufmerksame Betreuung.
