Quartier 5

What a delightful surprise in the country of southeastern Germany. The restaurant serves a select choice of Continental dishes with an emphasis on fish the night we ate there. The food was prepared perfectly and the portions just right. The staff recommended some interesting wine to compliment the meal. A real pleasure!!!

Perfect—here’s a revised version that clearly communicates the hotel is queer-friendly, and reframes the issue as poor customer service rather than discrimination, while still acknowledging the owner’s thoughtful response and your updated rating: Updated Review (changed from 1 to 3 stars): The hotel is visually beautiful, but our stay was disappointing due to poor customer service. We experienced passive-aggressive behavior from the hotel manager that made us feel uncomfortable from the start. For example, when we politely asked to be seated at a quieter table in a nearly empty restaurant, the manager responded with visible irritation. We later overheard her say, “they just have different brains,” which felt unnecessarily unkind and unprofessional. After our stay, the hotel owner personally called to understand what had happened. He approached the situation with genuine care, assured us that the hotel is a safe and welcoming space for LGBTQIA+ guests, and clarified that the issue was not about us being queer—but rather a breakdown in the quality of service. We truly appreciated his transparency, empathy, and thoughtful follow-up. A great example of empathy and ally-ship! Because of this, we've updated our review from 1 to 3 stars. While our experience with the manager left a negative impression, the owner’s incredible response showed a clear commitment to accountability and inclusion.

Way overpriced. Do not go here. On the surface it may seem a 4-star experience. In reality a farce. Small and dusty room, unsanitary waiter, and most importantly, a fully unqualified hotel manager. Does not treat her own staff very well. Treated me as a vegan quite poorly. Moreover, in front of other guests she passed judgment on me for something futile at the buffet (stuffed with cut fruit from the day before). It does not matter how many stars you have, if you don’t put *all* your guest first (and treat your staff well), none of these stars mean anything.
