Nous reviendrons !
Pros:

La proximité du parc, à 5min à peine d'Europapark. De plus, l'endroit où est situé l'hôtel est très calme, au bord d'une rivière paisible.
Nous avons apprécié l'arrivée tardive, ainsi que la gentillesse du personnel et la variété du buffet de petit-déjeuner!
Plusieurs oreillers à disposition mais peut-être pas assez confortables si problèmes de cervicales.
Nous avons également apprécié la vue sur le Silverstar de notre chambre d'hôtel.

Cons:

Pour une chambre qui peut accueillir 5 personnes, les poubelles sont trop petites ainsi que les étagères de douche pour y mettre les différents flacons de gel douche etc...
Petit souci au niveau du store du velux du lit double qui n'a pas pu être fermé totalement.

Pros:

Die Nähe zum Europapark ist wirklich sehr gut. Auch das Essen im Gasthaus dazu ist sehr gut.

Cons:

Was uns gar nicht gefallen hat,waren die anderen sehr lauten Gäste in der Nacht.Da wurde einem wirklich einem der Schlaf geraubt. Aber dafür kann ja das Hotel nichts dafür. Vielleicht kann aber das Hotel eine allgemeine Nachtruhe einführen,damit in Zukunft andere Gäste besser schlafen können.

Pros:

Das Zimmer ist gross auch im Badezimmer hat es genügend Abstellfläche. Alles war sehr sauber.
Der einzige Nachteil war das man den Koffer zwei Etagen hoch tragen muss.
Das Personal im Hotel und Restaurant war sehr freundlich.

Pros:

Top Lage zum Europa Park. Gutes Frühstück

Cons:

Unnötigen Diskussion mit dem Personal führen müssen. So etwas verhindert eher eine nochmalige Buchung.
