Schloss Burgellern

Schloss Burgellern

8/10 Good
"This is a beautiful place and located in a lovely area. Even without a car it was easy to get into Bamberg and to take bikes to the nearby adorable town. Our only complaint is that when we checked in the woman was not only not friendly, she was rude. At dinner when I asked about the wine, she almost yelled at me. I am well versed in what folks may say about people being cold or not friendly but this woman explained nothing when we arrived about the property or the pool, acted like we were bothering her, and then made me sorry that I asked about the taste of the wine. I should say that the rest of the staff was friendly and kind. It did mean however that we did not return for dinner. It’s really lovely but given how we were treated, I probably would go elsewhere. One doesn’t need to be treated poorly on vacation."
