K in Ilmenau

We stayed at Hotel Tanne Ilmenau for one night during our drive from Krakow to Luxembourg. We arrived quite late, around 23:45, which was well after the official check-in time (22:00). I called ahead, and to their credit, the staff were very helpful and arranged for someone to wait for us — really appreciated their flexibility and kindness. The hotel itself is in an older building, and while the interiors aren’t modern, the room was spacious and clean. The bathroom was also large and well-maintained. There’s no air conditioning, but it was manageable during the summer night. Breakfast was a bit of a letdown — not much variety and the coffee from the machine wasn’t great either. That said, there aren’t many hotels in this area, and based on my research, this one offered decent comfort for the price. Good for a short stopover if you’re passing through the region.

The hotel is already old and this can be seen in the interiors, but it is clean and pleasant and has its own atmosphere. Like, for example, the keys - classic, metal (not card), and with a big heavy tag. When going for a walk, you need to have a separate bag ;-) Minus for the lack of a kettle in the room (with a sachet of tea and coffee - this is standard in newer hotels) and very poor WiFi transfer. On the other hand, "plus 10" for the breakfast. It changes everything! Absolutely delicious, both for meat eaters and vegetarians. Large choice and tasty. The hotel is close to forests and great Nordic walking, running and cycling paths. Highly recommended, when I'm in the area it will definitely be there.

Nice hotel with a good restaurant. I had a burger and it was very good. Everything is accessible with the stroller, has parking in underground garage, elevator... Staff speak multiple languages, service is good, if in Illmenau drop by, would recommend.
