Hotel Stempferhof

The first impression was very good. The reception was very friendly and the whole team was extremely accommodating and friendly. The rooms were also very nice and clean. The breakfast buffet was completely sufficient and very tasty. The evening menu was always fresh and also very tasty. Even if we had to change something, it was no problem.

Nice hotel, a bit overpriced for value for money. Good breakfast.

We spent a long weekend at the Stempferhof with 3 families and 3 grandchildren. We all really enjoyed it, everything was perfect, all the staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very large, we had a superior double room. The breakfast was varied and the dinner was very good. We will definitely come back. The beautiful terrace is currently being finished.

The Stempferhof is quietly located on the outskirts of Gößweinstein. The town center is easy to reach on foot. The staff is friendly and competent. At the same time, the Stempferhof is suffering from a shortage of staff, which is currently plaguing the entire restaurant and hotel industry. The room: small and simply furnished; no decoration; no pictures on the walls. The bed could do with new mattresses, the current ones are already very worn out. (Also packed in a "plastic encasing" that crunches with every movement) The carpet could also do with a thorough cleaning or replacement. Pillows are too small. The bathroom is simple and small; bathtub with (too short) shower partition no longer up to date. Well-intentioned, poorly done: in the room, next to a bottle of water to welcome you, there is a small plate with a cereal bar and an apple (for two people) and one and a half broken cookies. The housekeeping could be more thorough: dust in some places, soap dispenser in the bathroom empty (but this was quickly remedied). An unpleasant smell in the room was annoying, the origin of which could not be determined. Although it had been freshly cleaned, it smelled musty, stale, "used". The "house rules" were also bizarre: for example, playing cards (German or French deck) is not allowed. This is because this hotel belongs to the social welfare organization of the "Johannian Church" (which is classified as a Christian sect in religious studies). Such a ban is neither contemporary nor biblically Christian-based. Breakfast: The breakfast room (restaurant in the evening) is modern and pleasantly furnished; the style is harmonious. Breakfast is served as a buffet. The food on offer makes a consistently good impression. Here too: friendly staff. Very pleasant a**osphere (especially if you are there early and almost alone). Dinner: Beautiful restaurant with a fine menu and friendly service. The dishes consisted of high-quality ingredients and were skillfully prepared. The price level is, however, on the high side (also applies to the drinks) and there is no Franconian cuisine. The Stempferhof is probably the most expensive option for staying overnight and eating in Gößweinstein. While the prices in the restaurant are just about reasonable, the overnight prices are significantly too high for the service offered.
