Alpina Lodge Hotel Oberwiesenthal

“Week-end sur les pistes de ski”

Nous avons réservé ici à la dernière minute, après vérification il y serait la neige sur les pistes. C'est un grand hôtel situé un peu à l'écart de la place principale de la ville et les remontées mécaniques, et c'était un bon 20 min à pied de la place principale.

Nous avons réservé ici à la dernière minute, après vérification il y serait la neige sur les pistes. C'est un grand hôtel situé un peu à l'écart de la place principale de la ville et les remontées mécaniques, et c'était un bon 20 min à pied de la place principale. Mais la réception est ouverte 24 heures et nous avons eu une très grande chambre avec une vue magnifique sur la ville. Le personnel est sympa (nous avons parlé allemand). La salle de petit déjeuner semblait assez bondée le week-end, mais il n'y avait plus de place sur le lundi. Je ne peux pas faire de commentaires sur le restaurant car nous n'y avons pas mangé. Les lits étaient les deux matelas typiques collés l'un à l'autre, ce qui est commun en Allemagne. Dans l'ensemble, je le recommande.

“Good hotel with a disastros restaurant”

We stayed here during a ski weekend. It is a relatively large but quiet hotel with elevator and wellness area/sauna. There is also a big play room for small kids and a nice bar with live music in the evening. Rooms are clean and spacious, however the fitting carpets might be a problem for allergy s… Plus

We stayed here during a ski weekend. It is a relatively large but quiet hotel with elevator and wellness area/sauna. There is also a big play room for small kids and a nice bar with live music in the evening. Rooms are clean and spacious, however the fitting carpets might be a problem for allergy suffers. Bathrooms in some rooms are handicapped accessible. Reception staff is very friendly and helpful. The hotel has a big parking area unfortunately for extra charge. Ski slopes are not in working distance. The restaurant is a disaster - uncomfortable hall with poor design, poor service, poor selection of foods.

“With the "restaurant" aside, the The Alpina Lodge Oberwiesenthal is quite a nice, pleasant hotel.”

This is a very nice hotel that is right off the Annabergerstr. (road #95) before the entrance to the town center of Oberwiesenthal when coming from the direction of Bärenstein, which I was. I believe that is the main reason for selecting Alpina Lodge Oberwiesenthal, because I would be coming from,… Plus

This is a very nice hotel that is right off the Annabergerstr. (road #95) before the entrance to the town center of Oberwiesenthal when coming from the direction of Bärenstein, which I was. I believe that is the main reason for selecting Alpina Lodge Oberwiesenthal, because I would be coming from, and going back to, Vejprty, Czech Republic, which is just across the border from Bärenstein. Plus, the hotel’s web page presents a very nice image, and it had all the amenities I was looking for, including a wellness center, nice looking lounge, and a room with a balcony. The Alpina Lodge Oberwiesenthal is quite modern and comfortable, and I was very pleased with my room, which was on the western side of the hotel. The double room was quite spacious, and from the good size balcony I could see the top of the Fichtelberg, the highest point (2,400 meters) in this part of Germany. The lounge is quite large and comfortable with large leather chairs and sofas, and the lighting makes the room very “gemuetlich” (comfy or cozy) as the Germans would say. The wellness area had a real nice, large mixed sauna (typical in Germany) that I did use, and for the puritans, be advised that nudity here is the norm, and not an issue. The “dining” room, or restaurant is quite large and very sunny in the morning, and it did tend to be very busy for breakfast, which is a self-serve buffet. As breakfast buffets go in Germany, this would come in as “OK”. It had the ‘usual’ breads, cold cuts, cheeses, cereals, yogurt, and some main dish, like scrambled eggs or hard boiled eggs pretending to be soft boiled. Even the juice and coffee were self-serve. They do have bus-people to clear the tables afterwards, but they all seem as friendly as one of the nutcrackers carved in the Erzgebirge. The same “dining” room is used for dinner, and this is where I was really thrown off on my first night here. It is very well lit, might even say bright, and it too is a buffet, and there is only one main dish! If I had not just arrived after a long drive from Prague, and I was more familiar with the area, I would have bailed out right away. I stayed and grumbled my way through dinner in about 20 minutes – this after a delightful 2 ½ hour dinner in Prague the night before – and proceeded back down to the lounge. On my second night at the Alpina Lodge Oberwiesenthal I made real sure that I had a more conducive place for dining than here. With the very poor experience with the restaurant aside, the Alpina Lodge Oberwiesenthal really is quite a nice and pleasant hotel with its proximity to 95. On the flip side of that, it is a short drive to get into the middle of Oberwiesenthal and any of the ski areas around the Fichtelberg. Would I stay here again? I very seriously doubt it.

“Such a pleasant place”

Wow, we had a great big room with stunning balcony and view, bathtub in the bathroom in comparison to other rooms which you can book in this hotel. So be aware which room you book, there are huge differences, not so many in price. We went there as a big group of apr. 40 people and I can state that … Plus

Wow, we had a great big room with stunning balcony and view, bathtub in the bathroom in comparison to other rooms which you can book in this hotel. So be aware which room you book, there are huge differences, not so many in price. We went there as a big group of apr. 40 people and I can state that for the same price there were huge differences in the comfort in the different rooms. Hotel and rooms are clean, bathroom also sufficiently big, breakfast were very well, plenty of variety. Not the best in the world but pleasant for big variety of visitors. Staff was very helpful and nice, no complaints there. There is also a wellness which you can use and relax what is a nice feature. Environment of the hotel and nature is also great, summer or winter, no matter what. Just great. I would for sure recommend this hotel if the price would suite you and I would like to come back.
