it was ok - lack of sleep due to road noise was a major issue

Dear Lisa

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay with us and sharing your impressions so openly.

We are very sorry that the street noise prevented you from finding the peace and quiet you desired and that your sleep was disturbed as a result. For your next stay, we recommend booking one of our Superior Rooms. In addition to individually controlled air conditioning, these rooms feature a coffee machine and a free minibar, and are also located on the quieter garden side of the hotel.

We are also sorry that you felt limited in terms of coffee selection. We take your comment regarding the availability of decaffeinated coffee seriously and will consider this in our considerations. However, we are pleased that you particularly appreciated the cleanliness and our service.

Your feedback helps us to better understand our guests' needs and work on targeted improvements.

Best regards,
Julia Kölzer

Angenehmes Ambiente, absolut angemessen für eine Geschäftsreise

Liebe Tanja

Herzlichen Dank, dass Sie sich die Zeit genommen haben, Ihren Aufenthalt bei uns so ausführlich zu bewerten.

Es freut uns sehr zu hören, dass Sie das Ambiente unseres Hauses als angenehm empfunden und insbesondere die Ausstattung sowie den Komfort Ihres Zimmers geschätzt haben. Schön, dass Ihnen auch unser Internetangebot positiv in Erinnerung geblieben ist – gerade auf Geschäftsreisen wissen wir, wie wichtig eine reibungslose Verbindung ist.

Ihre lobenden Worte zu unserem Service und zur Sauberkeit geben wir sehr gerne an das gesamte Team weiter. Ihr Eindruck motiviert uns, unseren Qualitätsanspruch weiterhin hochzuhalten.

Wir hoffen, Sie auch zukünftig wieder bei uns als Gast willkommen heissen zu dürfen.

Herzliche Grüsse

Dear Ms. Wilson,

Thank you very much for your detailed feedback and your candid words!

We are delighted that you were so satisfied with our service, cleanliness, location, and especially with the breakfast – phenomenal, of course, we are delighted to read! We also appreciate your positive feedback about the bar.

At the same time, we regret that your stay was affected by the temperature in the room. Our Essential Rooms have centrally controlled air conditioning, while our Superior Rooms also have individually controlled air conditioning and are located on the quieter garden side. For more comfort in the summer, we therefore recommend booking this room category – upon request, we will also be happy to bring an additional fan to your room.

We take very seriously the fact that you enjoyed our restaurant's culinary offerings but found the prices too high. We constantly review our pricing and pass on your feedback directly to our kitchen team.

We hope you will give us another opportunity to completely impress you in cooler weather or perhaps in one of our Superior Rooms.

Kind regards,
Julia Kölzer
