I was very impressed with my level of service while staying at the Domschenke…read more The hotel side was a 3 star experience. The restaurant was 5 STAR. When I arrived at the hotel, I was greeted by the son of the owner and he checked me in. He was a very friendly guy and his English was great (my German is terrible), Apparently he is also a Michelin starred chef, as the quality of the food would reveal later on in the evening. When I got to my room - having to walk outside in the freezing German weather - I went to room 47. Hmmmm. Not too sure about this. I was in a loft space with a kitchen, unmade bed, and cupboard filled with cleaning supplies. Back down to reception. Got the key to the room I was supposed to have - 46, and things picked up. This time, the room resembled a hotel room, which is always a good start. The room was a little tired - only a single bed, old crappy TV, wood-chip wallpaper, carpet looked old. The bathroom was better - nice amount of space, very clean good sized mirror. My only complaint was that the hot water ran out on the first morning that I was there. Oh and I discovered that I only had a face towel to dry myself with when I got out of the shower. In addition to this, I felt like I was bitten a couple of times - not sure if it was from the room, but one of my fellow guests reported the same thing. One other little gripe - I hate those over-sized continental pillows that were the standard here - I am a tall guy and it does not leave much space in the bed for the rest of me when there is a three foot pillow! Now for the good stuff! The restaurant was fan-f*cking-tastic. The Veal Carpaccio with truffle and fois gras was supreme. The filet steak with peppercorn sauce delightful. The Pheasant was incredible. It was such an amazing menu, with so much choice - top tip, if you can read German, order from the German language menu not the English - there were far more options on there. The ginger creme brulee with berry sorbet was the perfect end to all of the meals I ate there and the wines were ALL to a very high standard. What a place!
