Convenient to leisurely walking trails

Bathroom shower was inferior. The water pressure in the shower was at times so low that taking a shower wasn't a pleasure.

Sehr schön, trotz mangelhafter Internetverbindung

Sehr schön mit Liebe zum Detail. Leider gibt es keine ordentlichen Brötchen mehr zum Frühstück. Das war früher besser. Internet mangelhaft. Leider sehr schlechtes WLAN und Mobilfunk.

Es war alles sehr schön, besonders der SPA Bereich war neu und sehr sauber/gemütlich. Auf die Parkplatzgebühr von 4 EUro pro Nacht hätte man sich bei dem Preis eigentlich späten können.

Es war ein wunderbares Hotel mit einer sehr guten Küche, extrem freundlichen und zuvorkommenden Personal. Besonders hervorzuheben ist der exzellente Spa-Bereich. Die stündlichen Aufgüsse mit unterschiedlichen Aromen nebst kleinen Häppchen oder Schnäppchen waren sehr gut.

Entspannung pur

Sehr gemütliches Hotel, das Frühstück war ein Genuß und hatte für jeden was dabei. Der Spa-Bereich zwar nicht sehr groß, aber top! Mit kostenfreien Getränken, Essenskarte, stündlichen Sauna-Aufgüssen und Kaminzimmern zum Entspannen. Lage auch super, im Wald und keine 10 Fahrminuten von Ilmenau entfernt.

Sehr schönes Hotel mit kleinen Fehlern! Schönes Zimmer, perfektes Frühstück! Das angebotene WLAN funktioniert leider nicht auf dem Zimmer, sondern wirklich nur im Rezeptionsbereich. Das Zimmer und Bad machte einen sauberen Eindruck leider fand ich bei der Abreise fremde Socken unter dem Bett und noch irgendein anderen "Fremdkörper". Des weiteren ist es unmöglich in einem Waldhotel mit extra Parkgebühren zur Kasse zu bitten, denn man ist weder in einer Innenstadt und Parkplatzmangel liegt hier wirklich nicht vor! Müssen die Wellness- und Restaurantbesucher auch zahlen? Gaube nicht! Also Fazit, schönes Hotel was Luft nach oben hat!
