We spent five nights in this unique hotel with a fascinating history. It is set by the River Lahn in the beautiful spa town of Bad Ems. The facilities such as the thermal pool were superb and we made full use of them. The staff could not have been more helpful, the room was really clean and comfortable and the food excellent. It is unashamedly old-fashioned but is full of character and we had a superb holiday there. Highly recommended!

Great property with nice, tastefully detailed interior. Some rooms can be on the small side but are sufficient. Everything is nicely detailed. The sauna spa is good and you have choices. Not every choice was up to my preference but overall it was very good. The saunas are beautifully detailed and that adds to a special experience. The breakfast is very good with great panoramic seating. The coffee stood out as very drinkable. One thing I noticed, and it may just be that morning, there was a lingering cigarette smell in the breakfast area. As if smoking was allowed in a nearby room. The lobby had also an intense smell of some sort of incense which reminded me of these supermarket plug-ins. If you work there every day you will suppress the smell / intensity but as a guest it was a bit overpowering. The balconies on the Lahn side have an enjoyable view

This hotel felt like a ghost town. Big and probably stately in its day, it’s now a vestige of the past clinging on for survival. We enjoyed our stay in BadEms due to a lovely cafe in front of our hotel (unrelated) that was along the river, a great thermal bath complex run by the city (six blocks down the road, and a fun restaurant up the waldbahn funicular down the street called Bismarck. The breakfast at the hotel was very nice but the spa area is small for the size of the hotel and not very inviting.

Kulturerbe

Was soll man sagen? Der Wellnessbereich ist wirklich aussergewöhnlich. Allerlei Spielgerät liegt im Schwimmbad herum und hinterläßt einen unaufgeräumten Eindruck. Im ersten Stock sind die Küchendünste dominierend. Im Foyer parken die Fahrräder. Das Personal ist freundlich und bemüht, aber das Hotel scheint etwas zu groß zu sein. Vielleicht ist es auch gar nicht (mehr) möglich, ein feudales Hotel in einem postdemokratischen Land bestimmungsgemäß zu führen

Superhotel das ich mit der Bahn leicht zu erreichen ist. Hatte nun den Vergleich zum Schwesterhotel in Bad bertrich und kann nur sagen spitzenmässig. Das einzige was mich etwa enttäuscht hat war die bar. Ich saß mindestens 20 min. Und kein Barkeeper zu sehen. Und das um 18 Uhr. Ansonsten fahr ich da gerne wieder hi

Prima hotel in zijn soort. Wel 2 aandachtspunten waar mi niet goed mee omgegaan werd. Tv deed het niet. Aan uit knop schijnt erg verstopt te zijn, zonder enige handleiding. Ik schijn ongeveer 1 van de 4/5 personen per dag te zijn. Ben geen beurs, maar om eea weg te lachen zonder een stickertje pieltje…. Na 2/3 min douchen stond badkamer onder water…. O ja met deze douchegootjes, raken zo snel verstopt. Sorry kon er niet vanaf, werd ook weggelachen. Ik was ook hier niet de eerste met klachten. Maak die gootjes dan wat vaker schoon!

Fantastisch mooi hotel. Zowel diner als ontbijt waren “Duits” dus heel goed. Enige minpuntje waren de slappe kussens en 2 te korte eenpersoonse dekbedden op een twee persoonsbed. Dit zie je vaak in Duitsland maar het slaapt niet fijn. Mooie welness.

Grand Hotel with Wirtshof service

Once upon a time there were Kaisers who liked to stay in huge, overly decorated, dark rooms with a retinue of servants at their beck and call, fulfilling any of wish a grand hotel like this was able to supply. Today these are mainly nostalgic rheumatic pensioners. We were looking forward to a three night stay with the amenities a "Grand" hotel would be expected to provide. The place was far from full, but is greatly understaffed. My husband has a back problem and the reception clerk was the only one available to help with our bags. One of the room's chairs was broken and husband almost broke his neck leaning backwards and hitting the floor. Room was humming with all kinds of machinery noises, TV was not working, no Do Not Disturb sign - made one on the back of a laundry list (no stationery in the room), but the maid did not understand and woke us up to inquire what the sign meant. Reception (only there until 10PM) promised to fix chair and TV the following morning (no maintenance or housekeeping after 6PM) but did not until further complaints in the evening. Shower was out of soap (no toiletries supplied) but for some bathroom cleaning spray left lying on the shelf. Average age of hotel guests is around 70, but showers are slippery and have no safety handholds. We did not use the spa and have no comments. Breakfast is ample and diverse, but again, understaffed. In light of Climate Change and Global Warming it is worth noting that the Hacker Grand Hotel is not airconditioned.
