Quaint village; unique castle; but the staff at the front desk and in the restaurant really impressed us. Great experience because of their enthusiasm and kindness.

Beautifully renovated apartment that was perfect for a family of four. Sometimes family rooms feel very cramped but ours was spacious with plenty of storage space, bonus was a balcony with a lovely view. Even the common areas of building were decorated with great attention to detail. The staff were very nice and went out of their way to ensure we had an exceptional stay. My only regret was that we didn't spend more time here as it was the best lodging of our summer holiday.

Great location for Frankenjura in quiet environment. Great hosts who provided an upgrade, because of the mistake on booking.com stating that a single room has a private bedroom. I can only recommend a Double Room with Balcony. Spacious, clean, very comfy bed.

The main "Exceeds expectation" experience was talking with the staff: very responsive and attentive to details, accommodating to my slight change of plans, etc. They even have a machine for late-night contactless check-in! The room was very clean, new furniture, a cosy chair and reading lamp - great tasteful design. Sunbeds on the balcony + the view - simply Wow! Had they provided warm blankets for outside, I could stay there the whole day :) Luckily they didn't, as there are plenty of nicer things to do outside..

The Hotel is OK. However, there is no breakfast available and the former restaurant in the basement is closed since 2020. The price is similar to other hotels where a breakfast was included.

    Very friendly host. We arrived very late due to bad traffic, but he stayed up to check us in and do the paperwork. We had to pay cash for the room upon check in, but I had already expected that due to a previous comment before booking. Very clean and spacious room. Short walk to a bakery, some restaurants, and view points. There is free parking across the hotel from 6pm-9am. After that, it's metered paid parking.

    It is a charming town with beautiful places and friendly people. There was a lot of reconstructions in the centre but I hope next time to be ready. I would like to know more for the history of the town. There were too many interesting places - the tower, the gate ancient door, old houses and a lot of churches, a river - but I didn't find enouph info on the same places.
