Wald & Golfhotel Lottental

We used to stay here when visiting Bochum in the past, as it is conveniently located not far from the university campus. Staff has been very kind and helped us accommodating some changes we asked through *********** before our arrival. Unfortunately, while we stayed here for three days, we didn’t have many chances to enjoy the hotel’s services, such as the sauna, gym, and swimming pool. The hotel is close to the Kemnader See (the bus stop is right in front of the hotel, at the end of the street - 2 mins walking) and the Botanical Garden. Also, there is walking trail to get to the Uni; if you are not keen to walking, a bus will bring you there in about 5 mins. Everything else is not so easy to reach if you do not have a car…which may cause transfer times to even double! We had breakfast there and it was okay. As sweet options, you would have delicious croissants-that you may fill with Nutella or different kinds of jams; they also serve milk, cereals, juice and yogurt. The hotel and the rooms were clean, but there was no housekeeping (due to Covid), unless explicitly required. But you could ask anything you need at the 24/7 reception. We had a room on the third floor, with a nice view on the woods around and a (small) balcony. We spent three days in probably one of the hottest days in the entire summer, so we missed air conditioning in the room. Our room had a balcony and two windows, but it wasn’t enough to make it nice to stay inside, especially throughout the day and early evening. At night it was better. The room was a bit small but still okay for the time we spent there, while the bathroom was large and comfortable!
