Hotel overview

Set alongside the tranquil Rems river, this 4-star hotel offers a relaxed atmosphere blending convenience and comfort. Steps from Schwäbisch Gmünd's main train station, guests gain easy access to the town’s historic sites and local museums.

Inside, rooms are air-conditioned and range in condition; some feature mini-fridges while others do not. The on-site spa includes a sauna, steam room, and a distinctive cave-style shower, providing a peaceful retreat after a day of exploration or business. Breakfast is served fresh each morning, featuring a variety of options including fruits, vegetables, and coffee selections.

Added amenities include free Wi-Fi, paid parking with tight garage spaces requiring careful maneuvering, and a family-friendly environment. Travelers should note that while the restaurant offers meals, some find the options limited for extended stays. Service varies, with friendly staff members but occasional inconsistencies reported.

The location also favors those who enjoy nearby nature and leisure: the Stadtgarten park and amusement venues like Schwaben Park are within easy reach. This makes it suitable for both families and business travelers seeking a manageable base in Schwäbisch Gmünd.

“We asked to stay another 30 minutes after the checkout time and were refused even though the hotel was empty. we also asked to leave the car in their parking lot for 3 more hours after checkout and they charged us 4 euros”

“Recently spent several weeks here on business. My room was on the 3rd floor east wing and I had a wonderful stay. The room was clean and inviting. I got lucky with a very nice view towards the train station and the bus station which as a perk are very very close. A small river runs behind the hotel and it is fairly quiet here especially at night. The breakfast is fresh with coffee, tea, juice, cappuccino machine, and always fresh fruits, vegetables, and bread. The bathroom was bright and clean and quite large! The room also has a large wardrobe closet, a mini fridge, and air conditioning. I have heard some of the rooms do not have ac so do some research if you prefer that. One of my favorite features was the spa. I did not run into many others so be sure to ask about it when you stay. The sauna is quite large, there is a steam room, a very nice cave like shower and my favorite was the two seat sauna that focuses on the back and neck. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Some items to note, both levels of the parking garage are tight. You will need to do some 3 point turns to get into and out of the spot. Also, you do need to speak with the front desk to get a token for exiting the garage. My final piece, the dinner options were not my favorite. They do suffice for a meal, but I would not recommend more than once or twice depending on your length of stay.”

“Stayed their for 13 days.Very close to bahnhof. Friendly staff. Rooms are clean. The rooms are not new and that you will feel from carpet and other furniture, but it was ok. The room has an AC so it was an advantage for summer season . AC helped me since i stayed there from 25-06-2022 to 08-07-2022 which was hot days. The room does not have fridge, but i heard that they have rooms with fridge as well. Room has three chairs and Two tables. Lighting is not that much good to read on night. Another problem i felt is the same breakfast everyday. But i think it will be a problem for the people who will stay long like me.”

“Staff are not very friendly but efficient. Room was big and clean, shower box very small so could not move much inside. Breakfast is good and was served by the only friendly staff in hotel. Hotel has parking for an additional charge. Spa opening hours were not displayed nor informed and only opens from late afternoon but it seemed good”
