Très joli mais un peu excentré, avec quelques opportunités d’optimisation
Pros:

Très joli site avec une partie d’époque, magnifique façade et hall d’entrée conservés avec soin. Propreté des chambres irréprochable et personnel très aimable.

Cons:

Le filtrage de la piscine pourrait tourner plus souvent, je n’y suis allé qu’une seule fois parce qu’il y avait des traînées de substances d’apparence en peu visqueuse en suspension.
Sous notre fenêtre il y avait les poubelles, inclus celle du verre et le bruit qui va avec.
Pour le souper au restaurant, nous avons été très bien accueillis mais je suis un peu resté sur ma faim par rapport aux mets.
L’emplacement est un peu excentré, avec un trajet de 25 minutes à pied.

אין קומקום למים חמים. כתוב שזה על מנת לשמור מחיידקים. אבל כשמזמינים מים חמים מחייבים

Peccato! Un hotel storico così trascurato 😥
Pros:

Il personale molto gentile e disponibile, il parco e la piscina

Cons:

Mi è davvero dispiaciuto vedere un hotel storico e con bellissime potenzialità così poco curato e mal tenuto.
Avevamo una superior e abbiamo trovato i fermi della finestra rotti, alcuni interruttori visibilmente rotti e non funzionanti, mancava un pomolo ad un cassetto, in bagno i rubinetti erano corrosi, le placchette rovinate, la pulizia molto poco accurata, la sedia col velluto impolverato, il pavimento pulito male, etc.
La piscina era bella ma non la abbiamo usata perché sui gradini e ai bordi erano presenti delle sospensioni di materiale non ben identificato, simili a ragnatela/velatura.
Inoltre in piscina per tutta la mattina non era presente nè un bagnino nè un addetto, ma non è obbligatorio?
Non ho apprezzato le 2 comunicazioni scritte relative all’uso del frigobar e quella per motivare la mancanza del bollitore: la modalità espressiva squalifica l’hotel!

Würden wir wieder buchen
Pros:

Schönes, altehrwürdiges Hotel mit viel Charme. Grosser Pool zum Schwimmen. Ruhige Lage.
Freundliches und sehr hilfsbereites Personal. Kostenloser Parkplatz.

Cons:

Beim Frühstück müssen frische Eierspeisen zusätzlich bezahlt werden. Ein servierter Cappuccino ist inkl., alle weiteren (servierten) müssen separat bezahlt werden. Es gibt aber Kaffeemaschinen am Buffet.
Badetücher für den Pool kosten 5€.
