Hotel Durbach Schwarzwald

Horrible hotel A former hospital that looks like a hospital and feels like a hospital! Old and poor. I really felt sick to stay there. The breakfast is nice but dinner is a big no!! The only good thing is the nice view! They didn’t answer the phone for a whole day and I needed to inform them about something.

I was in this hotel several times during the past decade and returned there for the first time after Covid. Unfortunately, nothing has improved since. In contrary, the food quality has declined significantly. I remembered that hotel for the excellend food a few years ago. Now the food is just disappointing. Some examples: During breakfast there are two coffee machines, one for fresh coffee, one for instant coffee. However, the machine for fresh coffee was simply not operating during one of my days. During lunch/dinner it looks like they cook frozen food. No sauce to the fish, very simple dishes. Cake in the afternoon was definetly premade and just defrozen instead of fresh. The cake was still cold on the top. This is something you expect in a cheap hostel, but not in a hotel of this class. Positive: The rooms are large and some of them have a nice view. Beds and furniture are good. Negative: food quality, bathroom was smelling, room needs renovation, service (reception closed at night, bar closes even when several people are still around), parking costs extra, which is surprising for a hotel in a remote location like this one

The customer service is terrible. The receptionists either claim to be new and not know simple things ( e.g whether extending a reservation is possible) or they are extremely unhelpful and distracted on their phone or computer and can hardly be bothered to look up at the customers. The car park used to be free and now costs 10 Euro per night without this ever being mentioned anywhere. You pay for a family studio but then get a room in the lower category - without any receptionist knowing anything about it. The salt grotto is not functional. The bathroom smells of urine but the room only gets cleaned from the 2nd night onwards and only if the flimsy door sign ( that is such poor quality that it falls off) is put on the door. All together the worst Dorint hotel I have stayed at ( and I have a Dorint club card) and definitely not worth 4 stars

I booked the restaurant for 8 pm as I was told it closes at 9. Was there with my kids at 7.55 pm and was told it closed. At reception no one speaks English In the rooms there is no minibar and you only have the bare minimum. The only positive thing about this hotel is it’s location

Not an inexperienced traveller, and know what im getting myself into when booking places blind from a list from a search engine. This one snuck by me though - the web page is very convincing of it's hotel-ly goodness and creature comforts. Even the Ammenities list on booking*com is quite extensive. the give away should have been the exterior photos - its quite big isn't it?! hotel rooms are on the concave side of the hotel building, and look into scrub. on the context side of the shared middle hallway are medical practice rooms, waiting rooms, examination, diagnostics, conference/meeting rooms etc. even furniture in the hall has signs stating "hotel guest please put furniture back as you found it for the patients". naturally the good views across the valley of the wine vineyards is only visible from these medical facilities. median age of patronage id guess at 65-70. pleasant folk, but not very demanding from a hotel services aspect. food is served till 20:00. that's kindve half ok i guess, but... no drinks after 20:00? sorry the bar closes at 8! what?! ok, i guess i'll just. go. back. to. my. room. then and watch... er no, no TV in our room. whatever. bored by now anyway. ill get up and use the pool for a swim tomorrow - oh wait! the pool is used during the day for some aqua aerobics or other courses for the medical clientele. great. maybe do some washing? no? no sir, we don't offer a laundry service (but it says so on your website)... ahhh well, then i"t'll need to go offsite and will take over a week to come back". sure , ok. im done. don't be fooled by the spin and images in the presentation. its a plain jane normal middle of the road 2 maybe 3star hotel with zero frills, dragged out of the 80s with a thin lick of paint. beds are simple and clean (i think someone else referred to them as hospital beds - there a shade better than that) room size ok. on the upside if your hip arthritis is playing up its probably a good place to have it looked at simultaneously.

Soggiorno di una notte con cena e colazione con gruppo di ca 40 persone di ritorno da tour del Belgio, stanza 104. Struttura particolare per il luogo bucolico, una volta lì si capisce che trattasi di struttura multifunzione, hotel ma anche clinica privata per ortopedici e fisioterapisti, con studi negli stessi piani delle stanze di hotel. Arredamento non modernissimo ma sobrio, funzionale e gradevole, stanze grandi e pulite, bel televisore, ottima doccia. Una menzione particolare per la bella piscina coperta, a disposizione degli ospiti fino alle 21,30 con fornitura di accappatoio e asciugamano, a disposizione anche una sauna e un solarium, inoltre la struttura è immersa nel verde della foresta nera il che rende il tutto molto rilassante. Buona cena a buffet e anche la colazione non manca di nulla, dal dolce al salato. Sono rimasta piacevolmente sorpresa dal posto, ottimo punto di partenza per un tour in Germania.

Wegen eines Geschäftstermins in der Nähe hatte ich mich für dieses Hotel entschieden. Die Zimmer sind sehr geräumig, aber nicht sehr modern. Am Abend gibt es nur Buffet, leider schon um 19.30 Uhr nicht mehr sehr attraktiv. Frühstück reichlich. Fürs Psrken werden 10 Euro berechnet.

We beginnen met het positieve: Het personeel was vriendelijk en deed absoluut zijn best om ons te helpen. Er is een fitness, naast het hotel gelegen, waar je als gast gratis gebruik van kunt maken. De badkamer was netjes, de kamers zijn ruim (maar zeker niet modern). Er is een binnenzwembad. Je kunt gratis parkeren bij het hotel. Als je aankomt kun je echter geen gebruik maken van de lift als je nog niet ingecheckt bent. Minpunten · Helaas voldeed het hotel totaal niet aan onze verwachtingen. Het was echt erg warm en benauwd in het hotel en vooral op de kamers (en het was nog niet eens zomer!). Er is geen airco! Eerst bleek de kamer die we kregen nog niet klaar, (we stonden al met de sleutel binnen. Maar oké, dat kan gebeuren), we kregen een andere kamer. Het was super benauwd op de kamers. Bij de receptie wel ventilatoren gekregen, maar dat hielp nauwelijks iets. Meerdere gasten hadden hier last van. We hadden een familiekamer, dus twee separate ruimtes met totaal 4 bedden. Bij het grote bed hangt geen tv. Er zijn geen nachtlampjes bij het bed, alleen twee plafonniers. Er zijn geen stopcontacten bij het bed om iets op te laden bij je nachtkastje. Er ligt een los verlengsnoer onder het bed (!). Het meubilair is ouderwets, alleen de badkamer was geüpdatet. Het bed lag slecht, één matras lag niet goed op de bedbodem waardoor je wegzakt. Tegenover onze kamer lagen behandelkamers van de orthopeed! 's Morgens staan er mensen voor je kamerdeur die daar een afspraak hebben! Het hotel deelt hun ruimtes met de fitness en gezondheidscentrum. Dit loopt op sommige plekken dus in elkaar over. Het ontbijt was een buffet, redelijk, maar niet echt uitgebreid. De locatie is niet geweldig, er is op loopafstand weinig te doen of zien. Al met al viel het hotel ons erg tegen. We hebben ons bezoek eerder dan gepland afgebroken.

Wir hatten ein Wochenendarrangement gebucht, mit Frühstück und Abendessen und Wellnessbenutzung. Am ersten Abend gab es Buffetessen zu unserer Überraschung, weil es hiess 2x 3 Gang Menu am Abend. Das Buffet war leider nicht so gut. Das Essen war schon fast weg, um Nachschub musste man fragen und das Salatbuffet war eher dürftig. Am 2. Abend gab es dann ein 3 Gang Menu serviert, das einzige was serviert wurde, war die Hauptspeise. An diesem Tag wollten wir noch den Wellnessbereich besuchen welcher sich im Untergeschoss des Hotels befindet. Leider gab es ausser in den Saunen selber niergends Licht. Die Rezeption vor dem Wellnessbereich sah verwaist aus und es gab auch keine Getränke wie Wasser oder Tee. Also unbrauchbar. Dazu kam noch, als wir an der Bar einen Gin Tonic trinken wollten sagte uns der Kellner, dass ihm der Gin ausgegangen ist. Das Hotelzimmer war sauber und das Frühstück war auch gut.
