Nice, clean, quiet rooms (except for the two persons talking outside our window at 03am, which we are sure is a one-timer). Wonderful restaurant in the same place.

On the way of our travel from Nothern Germany to Switzerland by car, we stayed for one night over there. We got great impressions from a combination of old traditional style and modern facilities of the hotel.
Traditional Swabian meals at the hotel restaurant were very delicious
Highly recommended.

Average hotel. In the so-called "classic" part the rooms and especially the bathrooms are somewhat shabby and worn-down. The mattresses too soft for my liking. Two times the  restaurant that advertises being available until 10 p.m. was closed at 9 p.m. already. Rather disappointing - especially if you rely with your planning on that fact.
Unfortunately during three separate stays the central boiler system was out of order - you can choose between showering either with ice-cold water or not at all. :-(
But then not showering keeps you away from the mouldy and unhygienic parts of the shower stall!
