    • I tried this hotel cause DB had terrible delay and I'd did right. Hotel has nice bit Bayerische look. Floors creak a little and it looks a little spooky like something out of movie.I ordered good breakfast and than directly went to Hexen Wald.This hotel can be good point if you want spend few days from the your vacation here and travel around on a bycicle. Is located outside of the city just next to a road, but it is not noisy. Wifi is faster enough. I recomend him.
    • Lovely old Hotel with fabulous furnishings, ample parking and helpful and friendly staff.
    • Just what we needed. We were on the way from Munich back to England and we wanted to stop so no need to travel so long in one go. We needed a place to sleep at and being able to shower, oh and park our car. Thank you.

    Cons -

    • Bit soft bed for someone with 193cm/110kg but still fine.
    • Bathroom was a little dated, but perfectly clean and functional and a good size.
    • No negative experience.

    The owner offered free use of a garage for my motorbike, which I accepted.It was quiet, although eerily so.The towels seemed freshly laundered and there was plenty of shower soap in small bottles.

    It was very dark throughout, even with lights on and had probably seen much better times given the size of the place.There was no restaurant on site, or very close by.The bed/mattress was old with a very thin duvet cover, which I slept on top of, not feeling comfortable about about lying on the clean-looking, but slightly damaged, thin, mattress cover.The plastic door fell off the shower unit, onto me, whilst showering - it was barely held in place by 2 lugs.The continental breakfast on offer consisted of a choice of cornflakes or some chocolate ‘balls’ of cereal, 3 rolls, 3 pieces of sliced meat (of 3 varieties), no cheese, 2 containers of yoghurt, butter and a variety of spreads, coffee, tea on request. This was, apparently, for everyone, but I couldn’t be sure as I had booked an early breakfast - 30 minutes prior to the normal time of 08:00.Although I’m probably being harsh, I couldn’t help thinking it was rejected by the Adams Family.

    The Italian restaurant behind it.The room was clean and tidy.

    The church bells going off all night with the time chimes .I am a light sleeper so I did not sleep at all ..

    Parking perfect, allowed us in early with little warning, very friendly welcome on arrival, WiFi very good , everyone friendly and helpful, beds just right.Excellent bar / restaurant just around the corner .Breakfast at time we chose, very good with delicious coffee , rolls butter and plenty more : ham, eggs , honey etc.

    We wish we had found this hotel years ago as in great location for our journey.

    Great value for money. Good location to drive to lots of nearby hiking trails. Good choice of restaurants in Pirmasens (although hotel is quite a long way out of the centre) - quite a lot of the other (smaller) towns in the area have limited restaurant availability.

    Rooms are very dated and could do with some modernisation. No air conditioning (but didn’t need it as it wasn’t that hot).

    Nicely located if you are on hiking trip in the areaShopping village at 15minPlace to parkThe city is only 5min drive by car

    The church bell... ringing all night long at round hours....in the morning every 15min ... if you are light sleeper bring earplugs:)

    The host was very helpful and friendly.

    It' advertises a restaurant. However this isn't open for evening meals, and we had to taxi to a restaurant for food. Disappointed when the advert says it has a restaurant

    breakfast

    Hotel and room were very tired and outdated, although a restaurant is listed in the facilities, it was closed and looked as if it had been for some time. Restaurant options nearby weren’t great either.

    Bad

    Booking.com should eject this Hotel, it is very dirty, windows can be closed, everything is not maintained and old. Never again!

    you get what you pay.....for the amount of 45€ it was okay
