Seevital Hotel

We stayed in the hotel for 2 nights for business trip. The location is perfect, some steps from the lake. We arrived at 21:10 and asked if we can eat anything in the hotel, but understandly the reasturant was closed. We asked if there is any open restaurant nearby but the lady at the reception said, everything is closed. After parking our car, we were surprised that some restaurant is still open, so the information in the hotel was wrong. The room was OK for the first glampse, but the carpet was fully wet around the bed. On the second day we went to the hotel restaurant to have some dinner but it turned out that there is an event (still with some empty tables around). We asked to eat some very light soup or so, but we were refused in an arrogant and unpolite way: "if we have problem, go to the reception to reclaim". I am convinced that is not the way of communication with any of the guests. So we went to the neighbour hotel to have a great dinner. Summary: never again to that hotel

The hotel is in the town centre by the lake edge and accessible by car for (un)loading (then park car in council underground parking nearby). The hotel gave us a parking permit which cost €7·50 per day, although you can pay in the car park, which is probably the better option if you are driving around all day (which you would be mad to do given the excellent train and bus public transport). The hotel looks quite unassuming in comparison to local architecture. Our room 201 was ample in size with view to town. Room has a hallway, then walk past sink and wardrobe, enclosed lavatory and enclosed shower, into bedroom part. The mattresses were very comfortable, effective air-conditioning, insect screen on windows that open inwards, very quiet. The reception area is small, unlike the spa area which is generous in size, with two saunas (the one with lake view far too hot for me) but the smaller aroma sauna was just right (think Goldilocks). Water and tea available for free and ample rest area. Good free wi-fi connection everywhere. The breakfast choice was vast and good quality, although the scrambled egg didn't convince me on that score. Choice of sitting indoors or out (with the annoying wasps). Would wasp traps that I have seen in UK have made a difference? Had one dinner there and the food was very good. Sadly, did not have low alcohol wine or no alcohol wine available with meal, so had to stick to boring water. Service was good, although I was baffled why waiters were not wearing a neck tie with their suit. There is a high demand for cycle hire, so book in advance. Also have moped hire available. It is likely we will return to Langenargen again and we will stay here again, but this time leave the car put and use the excellent public transport (which was free for us tourists) to visit nearby towns, which were stunning in beauty and cleanliness.

Zimmer ist ein kleiner Schlauch. Nach der Eingangstür steht man direkt im offenen Badezimmer, keine Abtrennung. Restliches Zimmer ist genauso breit wie das Bett. Zimmer liegt direkt neben dem Fahrstuhlschacht im zweiten Stock. Zum Glück war der Fahrstuhl ja außer Betrieb während des gesamten Aufenthalts. Frühstück war gut. Für den gezahlten Preis in der Nebensaison eine Frechheit.
