Hotel Zur Engelsburg

This is a very comfortable, wam, and friendly family run hotel. While a small hotel likely focused on hosting short term visitors, they were very accommodating of my 14 day stay and requirements of services they didnt offer as part of their booking. Their restaurant, which seems very popular as the nearby community's closest focused restaurant, is understated. It claims to offer simple fare but they are overly humble with what their chef offers up; local cuisine that is hearty, healthy, and warming of the soul (my stay was in late fall 2017). The views from the room define the term bucolic and with the fall season, picture postcard. The staff are very friendly and easily helpful to a non German speaking guest, going out of their way to make my stay as comfortable as possible. The hotel also has a fantastic pub that is rustic and old style in feel. Coupled with the excellent food, this place more than deserves its rated official 3 stars.

We spontaneously went there for dinner. The staff didn't even begin to speak German. There were three different ladies at our table and all of them only understood the train station. When I asked what brand the wheat beer was, I got the answer, Hefeweizen. The salt shaker or pepper shaker has stuck from below. I put the salt shaker on a beer mat and you could lift the beer mat. Hygiene not really there. I was still eating and the other two people's dishes had already been cleared away. Very comfortable (NOT) I've eaten out many times, but I can't even begin to recommend this place. The taste of the food, nothing special. 09/03/23
