The hotel is located centrally, across from the Rathaus and the Münsterkirche. It's within walking distance of pretty much anything you could need. The staff are very friendly and helpful, the room was very comfortable and inviting, and the breakfast was delicious.

Pit stop on my way to Bavaria

A little difficulty as I arrived, had to phone the reception, well I was with a colleague who spoke German- so we entered after being given a password. If on my own would be a problem as my telephone had stopped- roaming exhausted on the drive. However, all sorted - it would have been easier if there was someone on reception.

Sehr gepflegtes Haus mit wirklich freundlichen und zuvorkommend Personal. Die Lage in der Innenstadt ist toll zentral und trotzdem ruhig - wir konnten wirklich gut schlafen. Es gibt im Haus kein Restaurant, aber das wussten wir schon im Voraus. In wenigen Minuten zu Fuß sind einige Lokale zu erreichen, die wirklich gut sind. Wir waren beim Gasthaus Föge und das Essen war gut wie bei Oma.

Fantastisk hyggeligt lille,hotel, med perfekt beliggenhed. Det kan være svært at finde, for det skilter ikke meget med at det er et hotel. Og receptionen er ikke bemandet ret meget. Men for pokker her er hyggeligt. Og beliggenheden er optimal for t besøge Herford Altstadt

Bra läge. Gratis parkering. Smidig check in. Rymligt rum och överlag väldigt rent. Något mindre toalett. Trots äldre bygge noterades ingen lyhördhet. Sängen var något hård men det är en smaksak. Bra utbud av huvudkuddar. Enkel men fullt adekvat frukost. Väldigt trevlig och tillmötesgående personal!
