60 month(s) with no reviews — possible closure/renovation gaps (shaded on the chart).
What the trend suggests
Possible renovation2013-04 – 2014-0972% confidence
An 18-month gap (2013-04 to 2014-09) with a post-gap rating increase of +0.83 (from 3.5 to 4.33) is consistent with a closure for renovation followed by reopening. The substantial rating lift suggests meaningful property improvements were completed during this period.
Possible decline2024-09 – 2024-1075% confidence
Two consecutive months of falling ratings: 2024-09 at 4.4 (5 reviews) and 2024-10 at 4.2 (5 reviews) represent a sustained dip of -0.2 points. While brief, this marks a notable departure from the otherwise consistent 4.8–5.0 range maintained throughout 2024 prior to September. Snippets from Q4 2024 reveal isolated guest concerns (one 1★ review citing booking accuracy issues), suggesting operational inconsistencies may have briefly affected satisfaction before recovery resumed in November–December.
Emerging issue2023-06 – 2026-0871% confidence
A specific complaint regarding breakfast quality decline appears in 2023-Q2 ('Das Frühstück hat leider an Qualität eingebüßt z.B. bei der Wurst sind nur die billigsten Sorten vorhanden'), which had been universally praised in earlier quarters. While the hotel's breakfast continues to receive strong overall praise in recent reviews (2025–2026), this early-2023 complaint marks the first documented quality concern about this historically signature strength, suggesting potential cost-cutting or sourcing changes that may persist episodically.

The hotel provides complimentary bath robes and towels for thermal spa visits—no need to pack your own
