“Great Hotel, But a Looooong Walk to Town”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 September 2011

Summary:
Hotel Freizeit In is a great hotel, with a ton of wellness and fitness services ~ all of which I don't really utilize. Food and room were great! My biggest trouble is that this hotel is a long way from Goettingen's active areas.

Pros:
- Very clean hotel
- Staff was awesome
- Fitness / Wellness (massages, saunas, yoga, large fitness center, etc...)
- Food and Drink (expensive, but not outragous, and typical for a nice hotel)

Cons:
- Location (see below)

More on the location:
Freizeit In is close to Autobahn 7, so maybe this works good for you. But for me, I never drive in Europe, and typically utilize the public transit and friends. This hotel is approx. 1 hour walk to downtown Goettingen, which is where all the action is. Only things within a 5 minute walk in this part of town is a large OBI, KaufPark with a few stores, Cafe del Sol (restaurant), Burger King, McD's, and a casino ~ but for visitors, one must find their way downtown.

That said, there is a bus stand immediately outside, and the bus is inexpensive and easy to navigate. The taxis will be there in about 10 minutes too. If you're German is shabby, like mine, ask the front desk and they will call one up. All the staff spoke English very well, and was extremely courteous.

Food in the hotel was great, especially Breakfast, which was buffet style and free! I love, and always miss, the great Krombacher Pils ~ which is popular in this area of Germany.

“Wish more people found this gem!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 July 2011

I think this hotel offers very good value for money indeed. We stayed only one night but experienced very professional staff and a lovely ambiance. The food is actually wonderful-buffet food is normally quite dull but this hotel does it fab!

The breakfast is lovely with only really fresh produce. Stay away from the cheaper hotels and get a great experience for just a tad bit more is our advice.

“Wow factor”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 April 2007
1
person found this review helpful

I spent a glorious Easter weekend with my sister at this fantastic hotel with Spa resort. The staff were so friendly and couldn't do enough to help us. The place is huge with so many spa's - a fitness centre - swimming pool - 4 restaurants and so much more.

The food was gourmet cuisine but plenty of it. All our food was included 1/2 board and on the day we left they gave us a packed lunch which was not necessary as we'd had a brunch at 1pm. Our room was extended free of charge to 16.00 on day of checkout.

The town was very pretty and easy to get to - we walked the 2 miles to get a feel for the place. There is plenty to do here if you can drag yourself away from the magnificent choices at the hotel.

Please take a look at their website [--]- However it doesn't do justice to the place. It's truly amazing.
