The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Spacious and Comfortable

The room was wonderfully large and had a clean and very comfortable king-size bed. The bathroom was also a very good size, complete with a large shower that had lovely hot water. My stay was excellent and truly enjoyable!

Delicious Dinners

We were part of a bus group and enjoyed included dinners every night. The meals were so tasty and served promptly. The chicken schnitzel was the best I've had in ages! Plus, they even packed a container for my dessert to take back to my room.

Fun Deer Feeding

Feeding the deer on the hotel was a highlight of our stay! The 5 PM feeding time was a fun activity for both kids and adults, and it created some lovely memories for my family during our visit.
