  OK hotel, though the area isn't too interesting

  This hotel is a perfectly satisfactory choice if, for whatever reason, you find yourself in Waldeck and/or the Edersee region. Rooms are comfortable and spacious, staff are friendly, and the hotel is located in the centre of Waldeck. A nice (if small) pool and sauna area are also highlights. That said, Waldeck itself is extremely small, and I can't say that we found the Edersee region to be particularly beautiful or noteworthy in any way. A lingering disappointment was going to the beach, only to find a rocky, vaguely post-apocalyptic shoreline ... not quite what we expected, especially compared to images of the Baltic coast, Bodensee, or other areas of natural beauty in Germany.

  Searching for "cold-spot" travelling?!

  The little town is very beautiful, the lake is amazing and the hotel is very well located, but don't wait your time if you want to be wi-fi connected all the time. The hotel is full of cold-spots and connecting to the internet was difficult. Having said that, the staff is really friendly - they don't English quite well but make the effort to help. The room was quite small but the breakfast was excellent. Actually, the restaurant is really good, the best German meal I had during the 15 days I spent there.

  Family-run Hotel

  Our room had a balcony overlooking a lower part of Waldeck and many forested hills. It was super quiet at night. The room was nice and clean, with good beds and linen. Bathroom was a bit worn, but still OK. Breakfast was excellent. We had dinner at the hotel's resaurant one night and were quite satisfied with the food and the service. Hotel staff was nice, too. We found the room price rather steep, but still acceptable.

  Good hotel, but has seen better times

  We did not stay in the actual hotel building but in a holiday cottage (large, about 140 sqm.) on the premises. The cottage consists of a large living rooms (stairs leading down!), an open kitchen with attached storage room, two bedrooms, each featuring a kingsize bed and ensuite bathroom (one with a shower only, one with shower and tub), a guest toilet and a long hallway with a built-in clothes rack. All in our group found the beds to be very comfortable. The furniture in the living room seemed fairly new and modern and the the ktichen was well-equipped with plenty of dishes, cutlery, pots etc. There was a dishwasher, a cooker and a microwave. The large balcony on the back of the house is accessible from both bedrooms and from the living room. There is some furniture on the balcony and it allows great views of the surrounding area. Everything was spotlessly clean, however it smelled strongly of mould when we entered the house. The open fire place in the living room (wood provided by the hotel) is a nice touch. There is no wifi in the cottage. The big drawback of the cottage is its location, which is about 100m down the hill from the hotel in the backyard of a huge, run-down apartment house. Therefore, if you want to make use of the hotel's spa facilities (or eat in the restaurant) it means packing your bag and trudging up the steep hill leading up to the hotel or - and I am not sure which one is worse - make use of the shortcut (staircase - I am not sure the elevator works, we did not trust it - through the uninhabited, run-down apartment house, which is quite scary. There is ample parking space near the cottage. Walking distance to Waldeck castle and air tram is about 500m. The hotel itself has the atmosphere of a typical 1980-1990s house; furniture, wallpaper etc. are all a bit dated. What really put me off was the smell of smoke that hovered through the lobby, the hallway and the restaurant. Its source was a little bar near the reception, with a capacity of perhaps 20 seats which was completely crowded with double the number of smokers everytime I walked by. The door was left open all the time (otherwise the "inmates" probably would have died of suffocation) and the smoke was allowed to spread through the hotel, which was pretty disgusting. The restaurant comprised a large hall-like room where company groups or tour groups (bus tours!) were seated and a small area separated by a small dividing wall for individual guests. The corner for individual guests was nicely decorated, however all the noise from the group section could be overheard. Food and service were excellent. Staff was very friendly and attentive, both in the restaurant as wee as in the rest of the hotel. There is a disco in the basement where a dance event or some kind of group entertainment was held when we walked by in the evening, I am not sure whether the noise can be heard inside the building, but it was quite loud in the street. The spa is also somewhat outdated and could need a revamp. Facilities in the spa area consist of a swimming pool, a small sauna and a steam room, changing room and lockers. There are definitely not enough loungers when the hotel is fully booked. I think there were about 10 loungers by the swimming pool and four loungers in the rest area next to the saunas. Also, the loungers, though new, are not very comfortable. They are ok to lie on, however they are extremely low and it might be difficult for older people to get up from. The hotel has 60 rooms, thus in the afternoon, when people come back from excursions, the spa area gets terribly crowded. Massages and beauty treatments are also offered. I had a beauty treatment and a massage, I was happy with both. There is a small supermarket up the road (150m), a post office and some restaurants nearby. Parking in the hotel's parking lot is tricky when fully booked. All in all we had a pleasant stay, however be aware that the place has some flaws.

  A nice hotel in the mountains...

  Ringhotel Roggenland is situated in Waldeck, about 50 km westwards from Kassel. The area is known for its fresh air but also for its history. So it is a very nice, interesting but small village about 725 meters above sea level, with a view over lake Edersee . The hotel is small with comfortable rooms with fast free Internet connection, and also a small but nice pool, not enough big to swim in. Regarding the the hotels own webpage, you can there get a wrong view of the hotel and its standard. The hotel is for me a "four minus-hotel", not more than that. Nevertheless, the hotel can be very nice to visit and also stay there a couple of days to relax and walk in the beautiful nature or why not to sit down and have a meal in the beautiful restaurant or a drink in the cozy bar? The restaurant offers a broad range of German well tasting dishes meanwhile the breakfast hadnt so much variation. But on the other hand, the food they offered had, by my opinion, a very high quality. If you travel in this part of Germany and want to relax one or more days, I can recommend the hotel.
