Hotel Zum Kreuz — Restaurant in Freiburg im Breisgau

We stayed for three nights and had two rooms. Both rooms were great. Clean, comfortable, lots of space. We agree with the other reviewers about the breakfasts. The staff we met did not speak much English. But then we don't speak any German. However we all managed to work out what we needed and what to do. There are a number of restaurants in Kirchzartner about 15 minutes drive away. Reception are happy to make a booking (necessary for Fridays and the weekends). There is a bus stop outside the hotel that takes you the tram terminus (line 1) which takes you directly to the centre of Freiburg. About 20 minutes in total. Buy a 24 hour ticket for 5 people if there are three or more of you - cheapest way to get into town and you can use it multiple times during the day. The buses and trams run frequently into the evening. ||||The restaurant was only open on the Wednesday evening we were there. Reception will make a reservation for you - necessary. The menu is in German (which you'd sort of expect wouldn't you) and we needed help to understand it. The staff were happy to explain the menu. Very good food, beautifully cooked and substantial portions. Go hungry. We had three mains only, two large beers and two glasses of wine. The meal came to €100. A little pricey but worth it. We think we didn't eat much breakfast the...

Found this based on location and trip advisor reviews and have to say very happy with stay.||||One of the great strengths of this place is the staff: they were very friendly, and even though not all speak English, they still managed to answer all our questions and more. The little extras such free cake and gumi bears in the foyer just make it that little bit more special and welcoming. The breakfast was great as well, very traditional German and delicious (yogurt with cereal, brotchen and cheese etc). There is also a table tennis table and some weights equipment and a jacuzzi in a small room in the basement (Jacuzzi out of order though).||||Would definately recommend for a stay in the Black Forrest but you will need a car if you don't want to mess about with buses etc. Parking wasn't a problem. There is also free wi fi which is of a moderate speed.||||The only reason this did not get a 5* review is that the rooms are a little dated, the jacuzzi was out of order and the restaurant was closed on Sunday and Monday which we never got chance to try unfortunately. Other than that, an...
