My family and I stayed here for several nights while we were travelling in Germany. My husband and I and our two college-age children, as well as two of our German relatives who are older than we, all had a great time. The hotel building is really nice in a comfortable way with a fireplace in the sitting area and two restaurants. The breakfasts, which were included, were delicious and bountiful.
The hotel sits next to a Kur-park so it's quiet and our rooms had balconies looking out on a peaceful setting. We had rooms in the modern wing which were really comfortable-- big, modern bathroom, great beds, sofa area, etc. Everything was very clean. The rooms had that cool kind of environmentally beneficial technology that Europe seems to be ahead of us on. For example, you turned on the lights with your key card so that when you left the room they automatically went out.
There was a wonderful sauna area that only our family seemed to be using in the afternoons, so that was nice.
One of the two brothers who own the hotel seems to be a well-regarded chef and he cooks in the more formal of the two restaurants. We had a fabulous dinner one night and ate in the more casual restaurant the other nights. The other brother, Hans Gebruder, runs the hotel with the chef's wife, Charlotte, and they are lovely and welcoming. Both speak English and are very helpful with suggestions for things to do.
The little town of Braulage is cute and there is a lot of hiking around there. In winter, I gather it is popular for skiing. It's a good base for exploring the area since it is right on the edge of east Germany, and there are some wonderful towns nearby: Quedlingburg and Wernigerode were two that we visited. The Harz Mountains are beautiful and not touristy, which was why we wanted to go. We all had such a lovely time together and the hotel has a very relaxed and friendly atmosphere. We would love to go back!
