Hotel Restaurant Hellers Krug GmbH

This is a historic German hotel in the nice town of Holzminden. It is a small hotel consisting of two buildings. One is a little more modern then the other. I had a room in the less modern building. There is no elevator, so hauling luggage up the flight of stairs was tiring. My room was very typical by European standards - very small but basically functional. It was very well lit and had nice natural light as well. A closet and shelf for your suitcase assisted in keeping the room tidy. The beds are very hard. It is a wood slab with a foam mattress on top. While I like my bed on the harder side, this was really hard and I woke up with sore muscles. Also there is no thermostat in the room so you cannot control the temperature. It got cold in the room at night (though I like sleeping cold). And there is no air conditioning so I image the room will get very warm in summer. The rooms are older in the building I was in so the wear and tear is showing. Service was outstanding. The proprietor was jovial and friendly and more than happy to help with anything you need. Breakfast was delicious and fresh each morning. One evening our group had an Italian night buffet dinner in the restaurant and it was terrific. Restaurant service is wonderful and friendly. Holzminden is a lovely town and I very much enjoyed my visit.
