Ordensburg Vogelsang

Staff was helpful specially night staff who got us milk for our toddler

Our second time here - it’s an old school great German spa hotel, with the exceptional sauna complex (which includes rituals every hour from 13.00). It’s dated at parts but that’s compensated with the very fair value. The breakfast was plenty, the service kind and welcoming and the room large and clean. We will come back.

This property is too far away from bars and restaurants, especially in the winter when long walks in the rain are not pleasant. The bar closes at 11pm and no bar or restaurant on a Sunday. The staff are friendly but never told us of a rail strike as they book us a taxi to the train station! House keeping walked into our room and started routing in the wardrobe looking for the ‘do not service our room’ sign even thought I had opened the door ten minutes earlier and exchanged towels with another member of their team and said no housekeeping today please. She could see we were still in bed but didn’t care. She wanted that sign! On a positive, the beds were the most comfortable hotel beds we ever slept in, just don’t look at the duvets under the covers.
