“Wonderful, charming family run hotel! Beautifully renovated room in an old building from 1864 with a lot of character and charm. Very nice and attentive proprietor offering the kind of service you can't find in any chain hotels. Very close to Gengenbach, a stunning town worthy of a full day's visit or longer.”

“We stayed here in April 2023 all the way from Australia and stayed with the absolutely lovely Gertrud ! I can't tell you how much we loved it here, I would never leave if I didn't have to. Location is fantastic, so beautiful, so magical, everything you would want if you are looking for that traditional old German fairy-tale feeling. The rooms were beautiful and clean. Gertrud was so welcoming, helpful, caring and made us feel so at home. The food was FANTASTIC! The breakfasts were amazing and plentiful. One of the best we had on our whole trip. Her traditional German cooking was just like my Oma's. If I ever have the opportunity to go back, I would stay there without hesitation. Sending our love and gratitude to you Gertrud and of course Kira xxx”

“Amazing! Room was very comfortable. Air conditioning worked fantastic. Bed and bedding were very comfy. Owner was friendly and personally showed us to our room. We were on the top floor. I forgot to look if the hotel had an elevator. My fault, no elevator. We had to carry our bags up to the top floor. Dinner and breakfast were delicious. Cappuccino was one of the best I have ever had and we just returned from 13 days in Italy. Two beautiful hotel cats. One reminded us of our baby boy. Thank you !”

“The nicest people host you in this beautiful hotel. They were very accommodating, as I was travelling by bike and I needed a place to store it. Both the restaurant and the hotel were nice, clean, decorated with taste.”

“A wonderful hotel run by equally wonderful people. You get a real feel for the Black Forest here both in the rooms and from the scenery surrounding. Gertrud is an amazing host, speaks brilliant English (which puts my poor German skills to absolute shame) and is so helpful. Rooms are clean, bright and comfortable. Food and drink are always exceptional, worth the visit even if you're not staying in the hotel. Have stayed here a number of times as an over night stop travelling to Italy, will certainly need to stay here longer. I adore this place.”

“Landgasthof Kranz is a wonderful find! The rooms are spacious and clean and feels like a home away from home. The food is delicious and the portions are generous. The owner is a delight and engages fully with all guests. I will definitely book here again”
