Perfectly situated but quiet

Lovely remote chalet that is still ideally situated in the black forest to visit, with a short drive, the clock makers and glass blowers and triburg falls. Owners are very friendly, the food is excellent, and the rooms are comfortable.

Das Hotel liegt gut erreichbar außerhalb von Furtwangen. Parkplätze sind ausreichend vorhanden. ALT und NEU wurde mit Liebe schick vereint. Einziges Mango: im Bad leider nur ein kleines Waschbecken was die tägliche Körperpflege neben der Dusche etwas erschwert. Das sonst kleine Bad hat uns nicht gestört. Den Balkon mit jeweils zwei Stühlen und Tisch sind gemeinsam mit den Nachbarzimmer zu nutzen. Wir hatten nur mit Frühstück gebucht. Das Buffet war ausreichend und auch gute Auswahl. Das Restaurant haben wir einmal genutzt. Hier sollte man einen Tisch vorab reservieren. Wir hatten Glück und den letzten bekommen. Bedienung nett und Essen lecker.

Wonderful hotel in the Black Forest

Kräuter Chalet is beautiful! It is an older hotel, but well taken care of. The room we had was a bit small for our group of 3, but the views from our window and balcony made up for that. They have free parking, which is always a plus. The wifi was a bit spotty in our room, however, it worked great on the main level, we weren't there to surf the internet so this wasn't a big issue for us. The restaurant was a nice bonus after our long day on the road.

The staff was so friendly and accommodating. The rooms were a nice size with room for storage and lounging around. The common areas and restaurant were very comfortable. We enjoyed the free breakfast and ate dinner there twice. The area is in between two towns so it was very quiet with nice views of the countryside. The bed and pillows weren't comfortable would be my only complaint.

Grundsätzlich ist das Hotel nicht schlecht. Der Eingangsbereich und das Restaurant sind toll gestaltet. Die Umgebung toll. Das Personal ist nett, leider versteht nur die Hälfte Deutsch, der Rest nur Englisch. Bei den Zimmern muss man aufpassen, es gibt renovierte, die wirklich voll ok sind aber auch alte nicht renovierte Zimmer. Die sind sehr stark in die Jahre gekommen. Alte Teppiche, kaputte Handtuchhalter, wackelige Duscharmaturen, zerkratzte nicht neu gestrichene Wände, abgenutzte Betten, knarzende Stühle und überhaupt nicht liebevoll gestaltet. Zudem kein WLAN auf den Zimmern, nur an der Rezeption. Und kein Mobilfunkempfang im Hotel, außen nur sehr schwach. Frühstück war ok, nicht besonders große Auswahl. Das Restaurant ist leider auch recht teuer. Speisen waren ganz ok. Es ist recht hellhörig auf den Zimmern. Das Zimmer wurde nur einmal die Woche komplett gereinigt. Toilettenpapier muss man sich vom Flur selber mit auf das Zimmer nehmen. Wir würden leider nicht wieder buchen. Es hat potenzial, nutzt es aber nicht aus.

Der Schrank hat keine Türen. Ist gewöhnungsbedürftig, aber naja. Das Bad war schlicht und einfach schmutzig. Der Duschkopf an mehreren Stellen gerissen und notdürftig geflickt. Die Toilettenbrille hat sehr gewackelt. Handtuch- und auch Duschtuchhalter sehr locker und wackelig. Handtuch rutschte runter. Luftabzug sehr schmutzig und verstaubt. Wasserhahn wackelt und Abdeckung fehlt. Während unseres Aufenthalts wurde das Bad nie geputzt. Das Essen im Hotel ist sehr teuer und teilweise TK. Selten jemand an der Rezeption zu finden. Wir empfehlen das Hotel nicht weiter.

Kein WiFi freigegeben (obwohl vorhanden) KEIN HANDYEMPFANG! In Coronazeiten und bei diesem schlechten Sommer sind Online Wetterchecks & Vorbuchungen aber häufig zwingend notwendig. Hierzu wäre zumindest ein PC zur Verfügung zu stellen, oder zumindest eine entsprechend deutliche Erwähnung in der Expedia-Beschreibung!!!

Good choice for one night.

The room is clean but the noise from neighbors can be easily heard. Both dinner and breakfast were reasonable. Internet was very slow. About 15 minutes driving to triberg waterfall and Esso gas station.

Originelles Hotel

Das Zimmer inkl. Bad war sehr schön eingerichtet und sauber. Das ganze Hotel ist in einem originellen Holzstil eingerichtet. Das Frühstücksbuffet war grosszügig. Das Hotel befindet sich etwas ausserhalb, aber der Bus hält direkt davor. Das Hotel hat uns gefallen, einzig die Mitarbeiter waren etwas sehr wortkarg oder verstanden uns nicht richtig.

Уютный, чистый, отличное питание!

Чистый, уютный и комфортный. Отель расположен в тихом месте, окружённый природой. Из номера отеля и с террасы ресторана, можно созерцать красивую долину и еловый лес. Как вы знаете, общение с природой даёт нам огромное количество позитивной энергии, а экологическое место проживания вокруг природы- вдвойне! Поэтому идеи ЭКО-отеля это оградить людей от городской суеты, пластика и конечно излучений Интернета. На территории отеля нет интернета, что даёт возможность людям остаться наедине с природой. Ужин в ресторане был превосходным и принесли все очень быстро. Девушка, работающая и в ресепшн и в ресторанчике официантом, невероятно быстро справлялась со всеми её обязанностями. Несмотря на занятость ресторана и некоторое количество людей за ужином, повар справлялся с рабой на отлично! Кстати повар был всего один, которого мы увидели за нашим завтраком. Это была очень приятная женщина, излучающая море позитива и добра. ( для заметки: знающая русский) Место для завтрака очаровало своим декоров в стиле прованс, красиво засервированными столиками, идеальной чистотой и превосходным ассортиментом на завтрак. Здесь были много сортов качественных сыров, колбасных изделий, омлет, яйца, свежая хлебовыпечка с хрустящей корочкой, молочное, фрукты, овощи, натуральное сливочное масло и соки. Если вы цените тишину и хороший сервис, то вам этот отель очень понравится! При возможности, мы обязательно сюда вернёмся!

Quaint little place.

Be aware that this place does not take late check-ins. I didn't read that fine print so it's a good thing we arrived at 7:45 before the 8PM cut-off. The lady that works here is super hard worker and very busy. When we arrived she was doing dinner so we waited a little bit for her to be able to check us in. She was friendly and spoke English well. We got two triple rooms. One was larger than the other, but the smaller had a better view and a balcony. Dinner was served until 9 so we went straight down and ate. Menu was simple and no English, but we figured it out. Good was quick and tasty. Schnitzel was not breaded which I actually like better. Breakfast was included and again this woman was working hard. It was tasty with plenty of typical European items but also including eggs and sausage. We would stay here again. Decorating here was amazing. Looks like it has recently been re-done from reception area to rooms. Cute doggie at the back house... behind fence. There is really no wi-fi here or cell reception. It may have been better in lobby. I don't know.

Der erste Eindruck ist super. Der Empfangsraum ist einladend. Unser Zimmer war auch ganz schön, jedoch hatten wir überhaupt keine Gardienen, schon garkeine Rolladen. Morgens um 5:30 Uhr war es stockhell im Zimmer. Das geht schon mal garnicht. Das Essen war eigentlich ganz lecker, aber der Service im Allgemeinen war nicht so prickelnd. Mein Mann wollte auf der Terrasse ein Brier trinken, was man sich selber holen muss. An der Theke sagte die Frau ihm: 3 Minuten, sie würde ihre Zigarette gerne fertigrauchen. Er daraufhin: Ok, ich sitz dann draussen. Dann die Frau: Ach so, ja dann komm ich. Und dass es kein Netz dort gibt, noch nicht mal zum Telefonieren ist im Nachhinein doch recht unangenehm gewesen. Von uns ein NA JA, ist ausbaufähig.
