Hotel Alte Vogtei

30 minutes drive from Nuremberg, and you are in tiny medieval town of Wolframs-Eschenbach. It looks like it was built for knights movie or medieval festival. It is as small as some 300meters in diameter, inclosed in city wall with guarding towers. In a very center you find Alte Vogtei hotel, in classical Franconian timber-framed house. But don't be mistaken, the hotel's inside is very modern and very well designed, even elevator is there. Rooms are comfortable and very clean, with spacious bathroom with shower. Bed is large, mattress is on the hard side, different pillows to chose from, also the quietness of town ensures great sleep. Hotel's staff is very helpful and attentive. Breakfast is really good, quality choice of different coffee from machine, juices, freshly baked breads, bacon, sausages, boiled and scrambled eggs, different cheese and hams, and many more. Nice wellness in basement, with two saunas, one of them is relly good, infrared room and water massage bed, all icluded in stay price. But true gem of Alte Vogtei is it's restaurant, which honestly deserves Michelin star or two. Local, European and even Oriental cuisine is exceptional. Good choice of Bavarian beers. Note, the kitchen takes orders until 8:30pm, so be in time. Free parking on site or nearby. Overall pleasant and reaxing stay.

Located in an historic walled town, the hotel is in a building built in the 1600 hundreds. The interior has been rebuilt as a modern hotel. Seeing the picture of the outside,I thought I might have to climb narrow stairs, but as part of the restoration they have an elevator. Very good restaurant at reasonable prices. Rooms clean and large by European standards. Only negative is spotty Wi-Fi.

Wir wurden sehr nett empfangen. Ein sehr hübsches Hotel in altem Fachwerk mit geschmackvoll eingerichteten Zimmern und einem praktischen Bad. Haben relativ gut geschlafen, trotz der ab 6.00 Uhr!!! lärmenden Kirchturmglocke. Der Hitze konnten wir mit den im Zimmer stehenden Ventilator einigermaßen entgegenwirken. Das Frühstück war völlig i.O. Leider zu wenig für Vegetatier und das Nachfüllen hat auch nicht so geklappt.
