Zur Glocke Hotel

It is a fantastic hotel and restaurant in the middle of nowhere||We found this nice hotel and restaurant in a place where there is not that much more. Even a number of businesses in the main plaza and street were closed and for rent. But anyway there is this hotel that has undergone extensive renovations and has a very modern look. Maybe the hallways and room would benefit from a bit of carpeting to mitigate a bit the echo. Rooms are properly set and while not spacious they are perfectly adequate.||There are no other open restaurants in the town except pizza and kebab so we settle for the hotel restaurant, which by the way has a number of culinary prizes and claims to be listed in the Michelin guide.||Since we were in a long cycling trip we chose for the more moderate prized items in the menu. We had burgers, which by the way were reasonably priced. The burgers were very good size and very flavourful. What was really extraordinary were the fries; Fresh, hot, tasty…really fantastic. They have a lovely patio and we ate outside taking advantage of the warm evening. The interior nevertheless looked also very nice.||The hotel is situated on the main road and the rooms facing the road I suppose can get noisy. The windows are modern and they mitigate a lot of the road noise.||Service is very friendly and attentive.||Overall I ate well and I had a good sleep

I had chosen Höchstädt and the Hotel and Restaurant zur Glocke because it was in a convenient place to break a long journey. Well, if I'd known how lovely the area was, how much there is to see and how wonderful the hotel and restaurant zur Glocke was, I'd have stayed longer than two nights. Firstly, Höchstädt is a delightful little town on the Danube, with the most astonishing castle, like something out of medieval fairy tales. Dillingen, a larger town about five miles away, is delightful and has a rococo church with an interior to match the Wieskirche, and there are several more nearby. The hotel is what one might call a restaurant with rooms, as the restaurant is the main draw, but the rooms are bright, modern, comfortable and spotless. Breakfast is one of the best you will get anywhere, with the most wonderful home-made preserves and excellent coffee. Do not stay here without eating in the restaurant. Herr Stoiber is a genius. Although we were just having a main course, we were brought a little appetizer of a creamed potato nest in which sat some pumpkin ice cream, which was delicious. Then my wife had local trout fillets wrapped in an egg and Parmesan coat and I had loin of pork served with a little bundle of green beans wrapped in a crisp pancake. Some of the best food we have ever eaten. Food and accommodation are outstanding and, together with this lovely but not widely known area, are certainly enough to recommend a visit of a few days.

We had the Christmas menu. Good price, good food and good wine. I Found the gnocchi very good with a fair amount of truffle on top. A very nice option on Xmas with family. A single negative point is the back dining room looks much cheaper than the front one so go for the latter in your booking.

The hotel is beautiful and freshly renovated , spacious rooms and bathrooms . The breakfast room as modern and comfortable and the breakfast in the morning is very good with fresh fruit salad and breads , cakes , ham and cheeses . The restaurant which unfortunately was closed that day is modern and has a wonderful decoration. |If possible don't book a room overlooking the Main Street as you won't sleep with the windows open : the traffic no matter how is awful even in the middle of the night ... only pity for this nice hotel !

A facntastic addition to the area were we live. Perfect for two if you are looking for a short weekend (while the children are away doing whatever sport or activity...), or perfect if you just found a new partner. Gabi & Daniel, due a huge personal effort, make your stay really warm. Even daughter Emma helped us to our room!! The best, breakfast, including that lovely egg. Very good, the arranged menu Daniel proposes. Great cooking point, including fish, a rarity in these parts of the world. Nos to good, dinner rhythm. We sat for over 2h30 in total. A bit excesive. There was a big "Birthday celebration table" which seemed to cut kitchen's rhythm. To be improved, easy, the rooms. They are new, they are nice but lack the warmth of the common areas in the lobby and restaurant. We will come back.

Good place to stay, nice people, extraordinary breakfast. And lovely dinner. The cheapest rooms are, well, ok, and that's it.

Second visit to the Restaurant - excellent quality of food at a great price. Highly recommended :)

Worth a trip. Food and service are both top notch. You won't be disappointed.
