    The staff were friendly, the hotel is in a beautiful village on the Elbe, Tesla charge point worked perfectly (there's also a public charger in the local parking lot). The bar and restaurant were great and breakfast was very good.

    Die Unterkunft vermittelt rundum Gelassenheit und verspricht Erholung von der ersten Minute an. Ein hervorragendes Frühstück mit Blick auf Elbe und Sandsteingebirge - sogar mit einer tollen Live-Musik-Einlage des Personals.
