Hotel Rheinischer Hof

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel was so clean and nice, near everything very good for families. The only thing we didn't like was that the ladies in the reception were extremely rude and didn't have any manor how to speak to people. I said good morning, and she's not even responding. People in the restaurant were lovely and helpful. In general we had good stay"

"Wow really nice hotel! Very clean and the rooms were large. Our only complaint was the amount of noise we could hear in the room and the lack of fans. We struggled to sleep because of the heat. We ate at the restaurant and the food was great. Overall a good stop but maybe not during a heatwave"
