Kurhotel Drei Birken in Bad Rothenfelde

Steer clear of this hotel! The bed was as hard as rock. A painful shoulder after one sleepless night. No night staff to correct the problem. No refund either. The senior female manager only speaks German, which was not a problem but kinda a surprise since the hotel claims to have four stars, and worse was that the staff were terrified of her. The staff in the restaurant were very nice, though. Errrr… did they really claim to have four stars? I have stayed in two-star hotels that were far better. Find yourself a nice hotel in the area. Plenty that are nicer and cheaper. If not in the same town, look for Bad Iburg and Bad Laer. And calling yourself a wellness hotel but not having staff for massages or any wellness treatment is not gonna cut the cake. For all hotel guests who booked in advance in an area of Germany that boasts wellness is not offering wellness just NOT done!! Shame on Die Drei Birken! The pool is tiny and cold, and two small saunas is really not what a wellness hotel is about. A day at a proper sauna (like across the street from this hotel) and staying at a value-for-money hotel would be my advice. Not ever again at Die Drei Birken!!!
