This friendly and welcoming hotel is run brilliantly but a lovely family. The room was great and the breakfast each morning was a real treat. Nothing was too much trouble and I was well looked after throughout my stay. The outside pool area with well kept rose bushes was an ideal place to relax and both the local bus and train services are very close by making travelling very easy. I will be back soon!

A really lovely hotel in a super location for local transport links. Very friendly welcome and nothing was too much trouble, with special mention for the delicious breakfast each day. The church bells did not disturb me at night and the comfortable bed and clean bathroom meant I was very satisfied with the accommodation. Highly recommended.

This is a lovely family run hotel that actually made us feel like part of the family from the moment that we arrived. Nothing felt like too much trouble. The room was well appointed with nice little touches. Although we were there for leisure, I can fully see how this hotel appeals to business travellers. It is well located just a short walking distance from the S-Bahn station, with trains to Erlangen, Bamberg and Nuremberg. There’s also a frequent bus to Erlangen about a minute from the hotel.

Thank you so much for a wonderful stay. It truly made our holiday.
