Hotel zum Ochsen in Schönwald im Schwarzwald

Room was very old fashion, specially the bathroom, very old and dirty (see picture). Furniture too old for a 4 start hotel (sliding door was not fix and sliding to the right). No air conditioning. Not very clean (i found hairs on the pillow). No blinds and curtains not opaque enough to avoid light in the morning. When i finished the bottle of water (courtesy one) the second day, they don't replace it. Carpet smelted badly. Breakfast was good as well as restaurant.

I loved this hotel. If you’re travelling through the area I would definitely recommend staying. It has some great facilities- sauna (afternoons only ) indoor pool, sun deck, massage rooms. Bedrooms were very pleasant- my only criticisms were 1. Curtains need to be blackout- our room was very light (I used an eye mask), 2. no tea/coffee making facilities and 3. v basic bathroom toiletries provided. Minor criticisms. I take my own pillow with so can’t comment on the quality of their pillows :) staff were lovely, restaurant was lovely ( very decent buffet breakfast included), parking is easy and free. I wished l’d had longer to enjoy the facilities and thought it was excellent value for money. The massage therapist I had (a former nurse) was excellent

the dining options were limited and the room was terribly warm

Very comfortable, very clean and modern rooms. Yet there are heirlooms all over the buildings that you will never see anywhere else. The hotel is quiet and comforting. The restaurant had a great breakfast and dinner options were extensive. All the food was very well prepared. Drink options are exceptional and there is an extensive wine list. All that aside, the staff makes this place. Super nice people, very knowledgeable, and very helpful.

The hotel is situated in a small village along the main road. Free parking is available in front of the hotel. Very friendly welcome and nice staff. The room was clean and spacious although a bit out of date. That counts for the hotel itself, everything looks a bot outdated, but then again this is largely compensated by the friendliness and professionalism of the staff. Good restaurant too, typical German food. You will not leave the table hungry.

Great little gem! Lovely little hotel with amazing staff, very clean, and beautiful. So impressed! Thank you for a great stay! We will be back!
