Zum Goldenen Ochsen

We were 24 hour flight delay back home to Dallas and so I made reservations for Aschaffenburg, Germany. This little hotel has 39 rooms, two dining rooms and the best hosts I have ever had the opportunity to meet. The rooms were very clean, comfortable and large. We had tea in the dining room, my husband entertained us on the keyboard and they catered to us as if we were royalty. Ready to go back. Don’t miss out on the gem of a place located across the street from the Johannesburg Castle. Beautiful place.

Clean, comfortable and friendly hotel a very short walk from the railway station.

Absolutely perfect, plenty of nearby restaurants to make up for having no restaurant in hotel.

Very helpful young girl on reception, usually on duty late afternoon early evening. Managed to bag one of the last on site parking spaces. Small car park, maybe 8 spaces and very tight, so SUVs will be a problem. Room was fine if awkward L shape. At least had a sofa to sit on for two people. A/C worked well (was very hot) despite being around the corner from the beds. Beds comfortable but pillows awful (as they were throughout our road trip). Bathroom large, shower difficult to control in its holder (bath/shower combo). Small thin towels but nice toiletries. House keeping was good but often late in the day. Breakfast was not included in room rate but was reasonably priced. It wasn't lavish but would satisfy most tastes, things ran out quickly but were replenished if a bit slowly. There was no a/c in public areas so breakfast room was like a sauna. Hotel location is excellent, especially for the castle and roman villa reconstruction. It's also a short walk into the town centre which is very pleasant. Biggest problem here is no lift. We had to drag suitcases up and down flights of stairs to get to our room which was exhausting in the heat and there was no help available. Travel with little luggage if staying here!
