Editorial
Hotel overview
Set in a charming half-timbered building, this unpretentious hotel combines straightforward guest rooms with relaxed communal spaces. Located amid local residences and businesses, the atmosphere encourages comfort over lavishness, backed by a friendly staff attentive to guest needs. The on-site restaurant and bar serve as lively hubs, offering regional flavors and occasional local brews to enjoy after a day of exploring the nearby Bergisches Land countryside.
Guests can unwind in a unique amenity: a nine-pin bowling alley, perfect for family gatherings or casual nights out. While the hotel lacks air conditioning and a pool, the pet-friendly environment and kid-friendly services make it appealing for practically minded travelers seeking practical convenience.
Its location places it 3 km from the impressive Aggertal Cave and within easy reach of cultural attractions such as the LVR Outdoor Museum in Lindlar. Proximity to Engelskirchen train station and several nature parks provides ample opportunity for exploring both history and landscape.

Guest reviews
What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“It's the only hotel in Engelskirchen which is the closest to my customer. Although all the facilities are very outdated, staff are very friendly and willing to adapt special requests. Everything is also very clean.”
“We were greeted with a warm welcome and our room was clean with comfortable beds. The bar had a local pilsner on tap which was very refreshing after a long drive. Anja and Romona were excellent hosts and there was some engaging conversation with locals too. Breakfast was continental European with cheese, ham, salami, bread rolls, cream cheese, toast, Nutella, jam, boiled eggs, cereals and waffles.”
“Nothing wrong with a place, just somehow is not cheerful enough.”
