Hotel Herzog Georg

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel Herzog Georg is a real gem hidden in rural Germany. The size of room is larger than a standard European room and we were very happy to have 2 large size doubles for my wife and 15 yr old son. Breakfast was massive European style and quality was superb. Lots of walking opportunities around town with site seeing and hiking just a short drive away. A couple notes, not much English spoken here, or in town at all. People were extremely gracious and we didnt have any issues, but just be aware. Also there are limited hours for the reception and if you think you will even be close to showing up after 7pm local time, reach out and coordinate how to get room access. We did not do this (our fault) and struggled to get ahold of the reception after hours with our US phones. Overall I would def stay here again if I was coming to the area."

Sure Hotel by Best Western Rhoen Garden

10/10 Excellent

"We booked this hotel just for one night sleep passing through the city. From the moment you walk into this hotel you feel like home. It’s cozy and home like. Comfy bed, spacious rooms and not to mention the view from our balcony. The front desk Hallala (sorry if I have misspelled the name) was so pleasant, respectful and she took care of our big family and checked us out with so much love and attention. I am so sad we didn’t have time to spend couple of nights in this hotel but for sure will be back. Also shout out to bartender/waiter at the restaurant. He was so kind. Thank you for such a nice experience. "
