Everything about the hotel is fabulous from the staff to the cleanliness of the room.
A little difficulty as I arrived, had to phone the reception, well I was with a colleague who spoke German- so we entered after being given a password. If on my own would be a problem as my telephone had stopped- roaming exhausted on the drive. However, all sorted - it would have been easier if there was someone on reception.

Over priced, hair under the shower. Receptionist who doesn’t speak English. Generally not a good experience for the price.
Loved the location in the old city. Great restaurants and historical sights.
No air conditioning but high ceilings and beautiful tall windows that can be opened.
I loved the personal and welcoming hospitality. The selection at breakfast was fresh and abundant. The room design is rather simple but it was overall cozy. I only wished the beds were a bit harder.
Unfortunately, on the night I stayed, there was also a group staying who were very noisy, so I didn’t get much sleep. The hosts are very helpful and accommodated any requests I had.
Fantastisk hyggeligt lille,hotel, med perfekt beliggenhed. Det kan være svært at finde, for det skilter ikke meget med at det er et hotel. Og receptionen er ikke bemandet ret meget. Men for pokker her er hyggeligt. Og beliggenheden er optimal for t besøge Herford Altstadt
Urgulligt litet familjeägt B&B. Så trevliga och välkomnande familj. Varmt rekomenderas.

Im Sommer ohne Klimaanlage und Altbau ... Hatte eine schreckliche Nacht hinter mir voller Schweiß und Stechmücken da ich das Fenster aufmachen musste Nachts ...
Bra läge. Gratis parkering. Smidig check in. Rymligt rum och överlag väldigt rent. Något mindre toalett. Trots äldre bygge noterades ingen lyhördhet. Sängen var något hård men det är en smaksak. Bra utbud av huvudkuddar. Enkel men fullt adekvat frukost. Väldigt trevlig och tillmötesgående personal!
Litet fint hotel i klassisk tysk stil! Rent och ordning o reda i gemytlig gammalt nunnekloster från 1600 talet. Vänligt och trevligt bemötande från personalen. Frukosten innehöll allt man behöver för en bra start på dagen
