"For the long weekend we had booked an arrangement in this hotel, two nights with breakfast and a three-course dinner in the evening. Upon arrival we were informed that the food would be offered in buffet form due to the utilisation of the hotel, and this was planned for the second evening. This did not correspond to our ideas, and we asked to put the appointment on the first evening and not to get the buffet as far as possible. The employee at the reception promised to check, then after a short waiting period we could confirm that we could meet our wishes. After we put our luggage in the room and had made us a little fresh, we went to the restaurant. The restaurant is located on the street front of the hotel, right next to the hotel bar. There is apparently a strict separation between breakfast room and restaurant area, we originally landed in the breakfast area and were addressed by a waiter and then complimened to the street area where a table was already reserved for us. The tables right at the windows are flattering, our table in the second row stood on an empor. We took place there, and shortly afterwards another waiter came to the table and handed us the menus to choose the drinks. Then he informed us about the menu: cauliflower cream soup, steak with mushrooms and roast potatoes and as dessert an ice cream. Nothing unusual, but that could not be expected at the price of the arrangement and the orientation of the restaurant – it is actually a steak house. Also included in the package were a glass of beer or wine per person or also a soft drink. After a short review of the map, we both chose a glass of wine, a dry 2014 Regent QbA “Black Gold” from the Lars Reifert winery at the Geiseltalsee, and we ordered a large bottle of mineral water. The drinks were brought quickly, but the red wine glass at Madame was not served from the right. This was understandable due to the corner position of the table, but a correct serving would still have been possible. The wine had a strong, earthy bouquet, but it had no stock at the first swallow. On the tongue he then seemed light and very fruity. Little later the waiter brought the first gear, the cauliflower cream soup. She was well hot and obviously cooked herself, with numerous smaller cauliflowers in it and also self-made croutons on it. Tastefully the soup was rather reluctant, but with the very well seasoned croutons there was a really good taste experience. After the soup plates had been emptied and cleared, a small break occurred while our waiter supplied the neighboring tables. His appearance was always friendly and accommodating, only his training had the one or other recognizable weakness. What had already been noticed in Madame's wine was repeated in the side table in a far more blatant way: There was a beer glass served from the left and right in front of the guest's face, and that was not the only weak point. There is also a clear need for repeating. After a reasonable time, the waiter then brought our main dishes. Two small pieces of meat were divided into the area of the plate with mushrooms and roast potatoes. The potatoes were perfectly cooked, not too hard and not soaky, well seasoned with bacon and onions and sprinkled with a few rolls of spring onions. Also the mushrooms were very good and with bite. Only the meat had been cooked for too long, it was clearly medium-well, although we had ordered it quite clearly medium. We warned a complaint about this as meaningless, the staff was clearly required this evening. At the end we got an ice cup with three balls of ice, some spray cream and a cookie. Standard, but not wrong. In view of the price for the whole arrangement, you can't complain."
