This a bit large and impersonal, with wide corridors and very similar rooms, but all well fitted out and very clean and efficient. We had a room facing Albert-Bartels Strasse, which was noisy at night, as traffic roared along it and the sound was amplified by the tunnel of buildings. Rooms facing Pfarrstrasse were quieter. No air conditioning, and no tea/coffee facilities in rooms.
Very handily situated about 5 min from the Rathaus and old town; and the same from the DB and narrow-gauge railway station, from the engine sheds adjacent to which the smell of coal and steam was apparent.
Food in the hotel mostly a serve yourself buffet at Eur-19 and very good in choice and quality, especially regional specialities such as venison. Breakfast excellent too, on the same principle. The restaurant is one of the largest hotel restaurants we've ever seen, with diners and waiters milling about everywhere. There's also a small and more intimate grill-type restaurant.
Room doors are operated by perforated leather key fobs - very difficult to get used to at first.
Staff very good but some, even on Reception, do not speak much English.
Altogether a very good place to stay in a very well preserved town of wooden houses.
