Hotel overview

Set deep in the heart of the Black Forest, this relaxed 3-star hotel offers bright rooms and a peaceful atmosphere ideal for unwinding after outdoor adventures. The interior presents a comfortable style with a wellness area that includes a warm indoor pool and multiple saunas, inviting guests to relax and rejuvenate. Breakfast is served daily at no extra cost, providing a convenient start to the day before exploring nearby natural gems.

With hiking trails and scenic lakes close by, nature lovers will find plenty to explore starting right from the doorstep. The hotel's location along Tonbachstraße is surrounded by woodland, streams, and mountain vistas, making it a perfect base for fresh air and outdoor activities. Although some parts of the property retain a classic feel without extensive modernization, the cleanliness and hospitality stand out.

Diners can enjoy on-site restaurant options amid a laid-back ambiance, though the service can be variable, and English is limited among staff outside reception. The property is pet and child friendly, so families and animal companions are welcomed. While no airport shuttle is offered, ample free parking makes arrival by car straightforward.

“Superb stay in a quiet location in the Black Forest with a pleasant wellness area PROS + The proximity of the mountains, where superb hikes (of all levels) await you. + The exceptional cleanliness of the hotel! Although it has remained in its original state: the annex (containing rooms and wellness area) has been preserved as it was, 1980s?, and has not undergone any renovation. + The pleasant wellness area (swimming pool, 5 saunas and lots of loungers) is very warm and the different styles of sauna, particularly those with aromas, invite you to discover. CONS - A waitress (in the restaurant during dinner and at the breakfast buffet) always had a sullen face, which was not very welcoming, especially for a service staff member. - Among the staff, only the manager (who is at reception) speaks a little English and unfortunately the other people only speak German, which I find strange for an establishment so close to France and welcoming foreigners.”

“Cosy old style hotel Typical german service, sober but good Diner had very fresh and delicious salad buffet. Very clean rooms. We enjoyed a very peacefull stay with an amazing view from the balcony. Only 2 negative points: The hotel is not friendly for the disabled traveler. There was little choice for breakfast. There was little choice of things to eat and the coffee was not that great. Overall a very nice experience!”
