Waldhotel Rheinbach

  : Breakfast was good, although for a 4 star hotel we expected a bit more offer. Extras like cappuccino or espresso coffee were also included (but had to be ordered separately. The room was big and well equipped. And there were plenty of power sockets! Including one or two on each side of the bed (some hotels still don't understand this need...). The surroundings of the hotel are amazing :)
  : In general it needs modernization. Some old-fashioned aspects are fine, and even nice if that's what you're looking for! But others are simply impractical or even annoying. The huge key chain attached to the room key is one of them; a key card would be an improvement. The acoustic insulation of the rooms was also very poor. The walls look fine, but all the noise seams gets through the door and you can hear everything happening on the corridor. In fact, when someone on the same floor opens their door it sounds like they are trying to access to your room (a bit scary when we heard it for the first time to be honest). Cleanliness was not bad, but there just wasn't attention to detail. The water bottle on our room was open (almost full, but open). There was a strange (bad) smell coming from the shower, which we later saw it was due to the siphon being empty of water (another aspect to be modernized). Filling it with water only solved the problem temporarily as it emptied again and the bad smell came back.

  : Beautiful location, very large room with relatively private balcony. Great restaurant with nice menu and great service. Rooms are dated but comfortable. Having small fridge and microwave is very handy. Simple but tasty breakfast included in very fair price. Very nice staff.

  : The breakfast was good but not exceptional. The location was very convenient for us as it was easily accessible from the autobahn. The hotel grounds had a good range of wildlife which was particularly interesting for us.
  : The room we had on our second stay, return journey from southern Germany to England, had rather small shower. We requested a walk-in or step-in shower and not a shower over a bath and that request was fulfilled but it was a very small shower.
