호텔 엥겔 오베르탈

This was our first stay in a wellness hotel in Germany and I wasn't expecting half of what we found. The hotel itself is beautiful, a bit of a mix between old style German and modern. We opted for an older room rather than the various newer rooms or chalets and the room was absolutely fine. Spacious, very clean and a fridge. The only thing is, it doesn't have AC which was slightly difficult in 32 degree heat at night. The location is stunning, lots of walks around. We drove 30minutes to Klosterle Shleifer which was stunning. The attention to detail in the hotel also is quite impressive. The breakfast is one of the best I have had outside Asia, very healthy options (the paleo cranberry bread was wonderful), and sparkling wine (not so healthy). We tried lunch once, we hadn't realised this was included (they have two plans, the basic includes breakfast and lunch and another plan which includes dinner). We didn't actually eat dinner at the hotel although I wish we had (I think it was 65€ each). The whole setting is wonderful, with 4 swimming pools, lots of sunbeds, sauna and fitness pavilion (this was mostly cardio machines and lacked more free weights, which would be my only criticism). The staff were also truly wonderful, incredibly friendly. The demographic of guests changed during our stay from more mature in the week to younger couples at the weekend and a few young families. We will hopefully be back soon. One bit of advice, if you plan on doing a bike ride based on their routes, I'd advise taking an e-bike. The standard bikes aren't very robust and it's very hilly!

We were disappointed that the demi-pension evening meal on a Thursday in March was NOT the 5 course sit down meal (promised on the Engel's own website) at a table with a table cloth and comfortable chairs but a bistro table/chairs and a succession of samey self service buffet courses. On our second night it was a sit down five course meal. The chalets away from the main building are very good and would accommodate four people or a family in comfort. we enjoyed our chalet, and the spa facilities (once you can find your way around) are brilliant, maybe more lockers would help.

I have not written a review in a while but feel compelled to . I did a ton of research on a great wellness destination for a trip that would be after Norway and before a visit to France . For some reason when you do searches for great wellness destinations you get more marketing and ads and paid list , but I found this hotel after digging deep. There was no English translation on the website , which I kind of liked as I would prefer a real local place with great wellness and this place has hit it out of the park. We are big fitness buffs and are quite impressed with the fitness rooms. One contains cardio equipment and the other is used for classes and stretching and core. The hotel is within minutes to multiple running and hiking paths as well. The front desk can assist with what routes to take depending on your fitness level. Other reviews mentioned some rooms may be a bit older and we may be in one but it’s exceptionally clean and well taken care of and we love it ( junior suite ) The staff is exceptional . Daniel at dinner, Alexander at the spa for drinks, and ,any we do not know the names of but breakfast service , housekeeping, everyone has been exceptionally attentive . Food has been great as my wife is a vegetarian and I am not and the menu is always changing add a great wine list with very reasonable offerings . I’m in the construction business and have built or worked on many top properties and The dollars invested in this hotel is well noted and they did not cut any corners . Finishes and craftsmanship are really well done We will definitely be back and consider this one of our top hotels in Germany , especially if you enjoy wellness .

This is a historic hotel, a bit dated, but renovations are being undertaken. I worry they may lose some of its old German ambience. The setting is lovely, just outside this small village, with lots of walking trails to choose from. The pool areas and spa are quite wonderful. We were quite happy with the meals and the half board is more than worth it. The staff were gracious, and we had a large and beautiful room. I though prices were quite reasonable.

Chambre avec très bon matelas et coussins, très propre y compris les sanitaires. Un vrai grand espace Wellness pour tous les goûts. Situation un peu isolée. Cuisine bonne et locale mais sans surprise. Bref, un bel endroit pour se détendre.

Hat mit einem fünf Sterne plus Hotel nichts zu tun. Zimmer müssten mal renoviert werden. Nicht immer wieder neue dazu machen. Frühstück wie in einer Kantine bei Mercedes. Oh ich möchte die Kantine vom Mercedes nicht beleidigen.Das Essen war drei Tage gut dann ging der Koch wohl in Urlaub. So hat es dann auch geschmeckt
