Fint for overnatting på gjennomreise

Praktisk sted å overnatte på gjennomfart. God service, rent og ordentlig, men også et litt gammelt hotell. Overraskende bra frokost, ikke noe stort utvalg, men god kvalitet og service.

Everything you need and more

I took a basic room for only one night, and it was just great. It has everything needed and is very well designed to optimize space. Everything is very clean and all details are well made. The renovation is qualitative. Service is kind and efficient.

Ruhiges Hotel mit neu renovierten Zimmern

Das Hotel liegt sehr ruhig in einem kleinen Teilort von Vohenstrauß. Wer jedoch nicht im Hotel Abendessen will (oder corona-bedingt nicht kann) muss ins nahe Vohenstrauß fahren. Alles war sauber, das Zimmer ziemlich neu renoviert, bequemes Bett. Als Doppelzimmer wäre es relativ klein, aber ich habe es geschäftlich als Einzelzimmer genutzt, da war die Größe ausreichend. Lediglich der Tisch war etwas klein, da er mit Laptop und den bereit stehenden Gläsern schon ziemlich voll war. Für einen geschäftlichen Stop-Over auch wegen der Autobahnnähe gut geeignet.

Sie haben sich bemüht

Stets bemüht, würde den Aufenthalt wohl am Besten bezeichnen. Es ist ok mal für eine Nacht, länger würde ich mich dort nicht aufhalten wollen. Eine interessante Erfahrung, jedoch bestimmt kein weiteres Mal. Wirkte eher wie eine Jugend Herberge. Aber der Service ist zuvorkommend und sehr freundlich.

Schönes Hotel im Oberpfälzer Wald

Ein familiär geführtes Hotel mit moderner Ausstattung und Komfort für alle, die absolute Ruhe, frische Luft und freundliche herzliche Atmosphäre schätzen. Die Zimmer und andere Räume sind sehr sauber, es fällt an nichts, Frühstücksbuffet ist ausreichend und lecker. Auch das Abendessen hat uns geschmeckt. Richtige Wahl für einen Zwischenstop oder einen kurzen Aufenthalt.
