We stayed three nights. The hotel is situated next to the Kurpark in the town of Friedrichroda, located about 20 km from the city of Gotha in the German state of Thuringia. The town is a health resort and the Ludowingerquelle, a certified water source, is situated at the park. A kurtax of EUR 2.10 pp and day is levied. In return guests receive a card, giving free and good public transportation in the area and discounts at some of the attractions. It took us less than ten minutes to walk from the hotel to the Friedrichroda tram stop with good connections to Gotha or Bad Tabarz. The hotel is large and includes a spa area with additional offerings for guests. Our room was spacious, very clean and reasonably quiet. The bed was very good and our room also had a nice sitting group and a safe. We only noted that no coffee maker was available and that the bath room was slightly outdated with a tub, but everything was well maintained and nice. Breakfast was included in our rate and very good with a large selection of both hot and cold items. We had dinner in the restaurant one evening and it turned out to be good, although we are no fans of buffet meals. The staff at the front desk was really excellent, giving good information about the local area. Also the restaurant and housekeeping teams should be commended for very good service.
