My family and I stayed here for a few nights and we really loved it! It is more of a remote location so plan to walk to certain stations for transportation (~15 min) but they have everything necessary nearby (gas station, bistro/deli, small resturant, fast food, etc.) The room was small but cozy and comfortable and the staff were kind and helpful! The breakfast is fantastic and free every day from select hours and all around us are gorgeous nature views and paths! The bathroom wasn't bad but be careful of water spilling out of the tub - really that's are main compliant but others we had a lovely time, thanks to the staff at Hotel Grauholz!

No AC

The hotel is modern and in a convenient location. However, it does not have true air conditioning as advertised. AC units are present in the rooms, but they do not actually cool. They are merely fans for ventilation. When I asked about this at the front desk, the clerk says they are not like "American air conditioners". Fortunately the temperatures were only in the 70s during the day. But the room was still a little uncomfortable at night.

Good hotel except for the heat wave that the country was experiencing. The A/c in the rooms were not able to sufficiently cool the rooms

Booked 2 rooms for 4 adults and 4 kids. Both rooms only had beds for 3 people. When we asked about it, staff advised that the extra bed was broken. One of our kids had to sleep on the floor and one had to use the bench as a bed. Hotel was understaffed (only one staff) and AC was broken in one room.

Okay stay

The air conditioner do not work and hotel staff acknowledged it too and don’t know when it will be repaired which is why i have a low rating on comfort. They could have at least provide a fan and it was not offered.

Clean but very hot rooms in summer

This hotel would be fine in cooler temperatures but it was so hot in our rooms that it was very difficult to sleep at all. There are air conditioning units in the rooms but they did not cool things down much at all. You can open windows at night but this hotel is right off the freeway so it's got a lot of road noise. It was a high price too for the lack of sleep we had. The front desk staff were really nice, there were drinks available all the time which was great, and the hotel rooms we were in were clean.

Be aware.

This place cannot be accessed from anywhere but a gas station truck stop back road. No GPS address and at least they admit it’s a travelers nightmare. This place is nice but it’s a very strange location in a truck stop with a hundred sketchy people hanging around and drinking in the parking lot after midnight. Would not recommend

Very good value for money

Enjoyed our 3-night stay in many ways. The hotel is nicer than the service area that you must drive through to get to the hotel would suggest. The room was quiet, large and clean. The staff were very friendly and very kind. The breakfast buffet was lovely. I didn't even realize until the last morning that there was bacon too! We paid for the included dinner, which is actually just a buffet spread at the nearby truck stop. But, the food was good, the staff there was very pleasant and helpful, and the beer and wine were reasonably priced. There is a walking trail behind that hotel that leads away from the hotel into a lovely forested area. The only downside to this hotel is that it is impossible to get to the nearby grocery store, local train station or other places as all of the small roads that lead away from the hotel have locked gates across them. To get anywhere requires driving on the freeway for quite a while, even though the grocery store is less than a mile away. If just passing through the area for a night or two, this place is very nice and highly adequate for good rest and a good hearty breakfast before continuing your journey.
