“Good option in Friedrichshafen”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 July 2009

person found this review helpful

We stayed here for a weekend in april and were quite happy with the hotel. The rooms are quite nice and the location is very good.
We had a very nice dinner in the hotel but the service was a bit slow. also breakfast was a bit of a free for all with not enough tables but there was a very good selection of food.
We didn't like the bar very much, this was mainly due to it being full of smoke and there were reservations on all the tables at the window which were never occupied. The barman never smiled and didn't look very happy in his work.

“Quirky, comfortable and friendly service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 October 2008
1
person found this review helpful

The hotel has a good location, opposite the lakeside gardens, and a short walk from the town centre.
Our room was enormous and very comfortable. We had friends staying in another room that was even bigger.
The public areas are very old fashioned in a characterful way, entirely acceptable, rather than being neglected. There are hunting trophies in the reception, and the effect is rather like a German version of a smart country house hotel in the Scottish highlands.
The food was very good, and the service was efficient and friendly.

“Agree with all previous reviews”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 July 2008

This hotel certainly lived up to expectations. The location is very central, within easy walking distance of shops, railway, bus and ferry stations, the public areas are nicely decorated with a welcoming bar and restaurant. The breakfast was very good with a wide selection of cold food, the hot food ran out quickly and was not replaced.The bedroom was reasonably spacious and very clean withcomfortable beds.
Be aware that the chambermaid has a habit of entering the room at 0830 in the morning without knocking and can enter even if the room is locked with the key on the inside of the door. There is no security chain.

  • Liked — location and ambience
  • Disliked — no real problems

“A pleasant stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 July 2008

Had a pleasant stay at the hotel. It doesn't look much from the main road, but the front of the hotel and entrance is actually around the corner on a side street.

Reception staff helpful. Room very big for a double - as well as the usual furniture there was a sofa and plenty of room for it. The room was comfortable with a/c and comfy beds, but overall it was a bit bland. Our room had no view at all: we were on the first floor over looking a flat roof and the wall of another building.

Had dinner in the restaurant and it was excellent - we were on a set menu. I'm vegetarian, no option on the set menu, but the chef came up with one of the best veggie meals I've ever had! In addition, the service in the restaurant was first class.

Breakfast selection good, but we stayed during the town festival and it was a bit like a free for all in the breakfast room - we felt like putting our towels on our seats to make sure no one else sat on them:-).

Bar nice for an evening drink, but grumpy barman which put us off.

All in all a good stay, and would stay again, but would try and get a room with a least a bit of a view.

“Great triple room and restaurant service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 October 2007
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed for one night at the hotel in August and it was great. The room we had was huge, it was more like an apartment and my adult daughter who was with us had a separate room in an upstairs loft. The room we booked was a triple but it had everything including a lounge, a/c and good views of the lake. We even had a fax machine on the desk!
The staff at reception were friendly and spoke good English but the best of all was the restaurant, not only was the food great but the service was exceptional. We each received a complimentary aperterif and it went down well defore dinner.
The breakfast the next morning was also good. Overall we thought the hotel was a great deal and a good location near the station and only a short walk to the town where you can vist the Zepplin museum or catch the ferry.

  • Liked — The great restaurant service and the huge room
