Lohr: Hotel Bundschuh***

With unusual rooms, a unique family atmosphere, special service, a 4,000 square meter hotel park and a smile on the lips of our staff. But we wouldn't be us if we weren't constantly evolving.
For this reason, the Hotel Bundschuh continues to transform itself into an even more individual boutique hotel. With even more loving details. And even though our hotel is entitled to 4 stars, we remain special here too: with an "S" instead of a fourth star. An "S" for friendly, sunny or simply beautiful.
There are many reasons to visit the Hotel Bundschuh. But even all of them together only begin to convey what has made the Hotel Bundschuh so special for over half a century. Experience it for yourself.
