“Another Great Stay”

This was our 3rd stopover at Abtei Sayn on our journey from the UK to Nuremberg. It is set in a wonderful wooded valley and so peaceful.

We had a large room on the bottom floor next to a big kitchen with fridge/freezer, coffee machine, kettle, oven, teas & coffees and sweet treats all free for use. It was a very hot day, 32 degrees but the room remained lovely and cool despite having no air con due to its very thick walls. Had dinner at the nearby (and connected) Lindenhof restaurant, the schnitzel was beautifully cooked and very plentiful. The breakfast was again at the Lindenhof restaurant a 5 minute was away and was truly a gastronomic feast. Highly recommended. See more info on my older review.

“Great service, perfect location. All good.”

We were here for a weekend and stayed in a guest apartment. To access the apt you need to go up two rather narrow staircases, so you better have good knees.... Service is super friendly and always helpful. The location is great. Really liked staying there.

“Unique accommodation on a peaceful location”

Many positive things have already been said about this accommodation and we were generally enthusiastic about it as well. We were here in December and had two different rooms: one room on the ground floor with a very spacious (fairly new) bathroom and a smaller room on the first floor with a relatively old bathroom. The rooms are ok, but certainly not fantastic: quite dated and the water in the shower on the 1st floor did not drain properly. The mattresses were on the soft side. Early in the morning (if we remember correctly already at 6 o'clock!) the church bells started ringing and this is very noticeable if you sleep with the windows open. Perhaps something to bear in mind if you plan to come to this place in the summer, as there is obviously no air conditioning in the rooms. The location of the abbey/hotel is on the edge of (actually outside) Bendorf and is absolutely fantastic: quietly situated between the trees and hills and therefore a good starting point for various walks. In combination with the snow, this really felt like a fairy-tale. The breakfast room is also the check-in area and restaurant, a 5 / 10-minute walk from the abbey. The breakfast is luxurious and extensive and it is possible to order additional items such as extra bread or tea/coffee. We also had dinner here in the evening and the food was just as good. All in all: reasonable rooms, but above all a fantastic location with good breakfast and evening meals.

“Interesting Experience”

The room is big with a bedroom and hall. As it is sited near to the mountains, at a higher altitude, it was pretty cold. There’s heater though. The hall is pretty dimly lit. No front desk. Stairs to main door and room. Quiet location. Breakfast was really lovely.
