Definitely my favorite stay in Bavaria. The hotel was beautiful. There was a private parking garage for hotel guests which is very convenient as there is minimal parking options in the walls of the town. The hotel breakfast was fantastic and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful.

Great location just a couple blocks inside the old town area, so easy to explore the town (and walk the town walls😀). Really friendly & helpful staff, good size room and comfortable bed. Our room was on the 3rd floor, and there’s no elevator to it. They may have other rooms without as many steps, and the staff did offer to bring up our luggage, but it was good exercise for us. Great breakfast too, with a table reserved under our name.

This truly was a highlight of my hotels that I stayed at. The breakfast is amazing but the true gem of this hotel are the 2 ladies who run the hotel and breakfast. Location is truly the center of it all, do not hesitate to book.

We had such an amazing stay. The hotel is in the perfect location, so much to see and explore in the little town. The breakfast was delicious, and lots of little extra details were provided, such as sparkling water for our drive. Lovely decor and helpful staff. The only thing we wish, is that we stayed longer. Highly recommend you stay here!
Cute decor in lobby, tables for breakfast or drinks.

I will start with the postivies. Beautiful hotel, updated and modern decor with a great location. The staff were lovely and very attentive, couldn't ask for better! Breakfast was excellent with lots of options (even vegan!) with a beautiful breakfast area (probably nicest our entire trip!). Negatives, no elevator! I missed this when booking and saw it the day before our arrival but didn't think much of it but boy it is a hike and even moreso if you come with a car. We had to drag our cases down 2 flights of stairs from loading zone and then up a winding staircase to our room, thank goodness we were on the first floor, couldn't imagine if we were on the 3rd! they do offer paid parking while a great perk it is off site so another thing to deal with. rooms are quite small and not sound-proof! we could hear our neighbours entire conversation next door and we were on different sleep schedules so I am sure we woke them up being early risers but they kept us up late being night owls. our room was next to the laundry and house keeping quarters so we could not escape the noise. It is a lovely quaint property but the dragging bags up and down stairs is a deal breaker for me, such a shame because it is such a lovely hotel in a great location with lovely hosts.
