Fürstenhof in Erfurt

Our wedding celebration on June 14, 2025, at the Fürstenhof was simply unforgettable. From the very first conversation, we sensed the passion and love the hosts put into their work. They not only fulfilled all our wishes, but implemented them with such warmth and care that we felt completely at home. The food was dreamy, the service warm and attentive – and we were able to enjoy the day to the fullest without having to worry about anything. We are infinitely grateful for this special support on our big day. Thank you so much!

The service was fantastic, as always. The food is amazing. Fresh, delicious, and a feast for the eyes. Everything is just perfect here. We'd love to come back.

Hello, everyone is very nice, breakfast is good, there's something for everyone! I'd love to come back!

We came here for dinner. The food was delicious, the portions were generous, and our requests were accommodated without any problems.

We were only there for lunch, so we can't comment on the rooms or breakfast. There's a lot to say about the food, though. It was extremely tasty and of very good quality. We had the Smashburger with dumpling fries and the asparagus with salmon and potatoes. Both dishes tasted excellent and were prepared without long waits, despite the busy schedule. The service was also very polite, and we felt well looked after. We will definitely return to enjoy more dishes.

A very appealing restaurant. The dishes are freshly prepared and delicious, lovingly served in a pleasant atmosphere. Kudos to the chef. Everyone enjoyed the food without exception.

A very good restaurant. The menu is a successful mix of Thuringian cuisine and a few foreign dishes. Solid selection of drinks, friendly waitresses and the head of the house does the cooking himself, absolutely great. My entrecote was absolutely perfect. Behind the house there is a beer garden with a small playground, free parking spaces, now also with a charging station. I can't judge the rooms, so far I've always come home 😉 The restaurant is highly recommended and we'd love to come back.

We were on a flying visit to Erfurt and felt like having ice cream at home. Spontaneously called here to see if there was ice cream to take away. The ice cream sundaes were prepared in a real bowl and we were allowed to take them home. The cups were incredibly tasty and prepared with love. Of course, dishes were returned ☺️ Here you can tell that the innkeepers live for their restaurant.

We had a late lunch and were pleasantly surprised. The food, beef roulade with Thuringian dumplings, was finely prepared and impressed with its good quality. The price level corresponds to today's times and is reasonable for this good cuisine. We'll be back 😁

We recently had dinner at the Fürstenhof again and ordered a brand new burger (we were probably the first ones out of the kitchen). The food in general and last time the burgers are awesome. The burgers were not served with ketchup or mustard or similar but with a homemade jus. That was exactly what was special! We were really excited. As Frienstedters, we are happy to have such a great restaurant right on our doorstep. Not only is the food great and high quality, but the hospitality of the Thraen family and the entire team is also great. They have high standards for themselves - which they definitely live up to! We always enjoy coming to the Fürstenhof 🤩😍

Excellent food, great service and very nice rooms :) Everything perfect!

Best food, great service, optimal location - what more could you want! We always enjoy coming to the Fürstenhof!👌👌👌

Very nice hotel! Food is very tasty and wishes are fulfilled! Definitely coming back! The staff is really super nice and fulfills every special request!!

If there were still mountains on the horizon, I would have said I was in Austria. Great innkeeper and very committed service. We left nothing.

Was only in the restaurant, food was good and the price was still reasonable.

I can only rate the restaurant here. It was very tasty. The burger was awesome. Very inconspicuous from the outside. We'll definitely be back.

Tulips. Asparagus. Sunshine. At the Fürstenhof, not only the garden is blooming, but also the taste: tender spears of asparagus meet fresh herbs, butter and love - served with a touch of spring.

Very tasty food and super nice service. Rarely have we eaten so well here. The beer garden also looks very nice. We'll definitely be back!

It's easy to reach. Staff is courteous. Food is highly recommended, seasonal and delicious. The “Fürstenhof” is worth one (no more) visit(s).

Super friendly staff, incredibly delicious food. You have to do it. All in all, a well-rounded affair. Thank you very much, we will be back!

I have been a guest at the Fürstenhof many times and am always completely satisfied and thrilled - as was the case again on my previous visit at the end of March. The hotel is run by the Thraen family in an absolutely professional manner, which I can see again and again from check-in throughout my entire stay to check-out... and despite these high demands on themselves, which are implemented with great enthusiasm and perfection down to the last detail, the Thraens - and also the other employees - never lack inner peace and friendliness, which the family certainly draws from their love for their life's work and their strong professional understanding. The room service is also second to none - the rooms are freshly prepared every day. The restaurant in the house is also fantastic, and is run by Thraens just as carefully, attentively and with love. Fantastically prepared and garnished dishes await the guests, in particular traditional dishes from Thuringian cuisine are offered, which I favor and are real delicacies. I was once again completely thrilled and am already looking forward to my next visit to the Fürstenhof, dear Thraen family!

Were there for Schnitzel Thursday. It was just fantastic. Fresh and high quality food. The taste is really fantastic. Plus a free choice of three desserts, all homemade (cake, cream and mousse). We'll definitely be back! The staff is also super nice!

It tasted very good, the service was very friendly and the selection of dishes was really modern and varied from schnitzel to vegan 👍🏻

We had a very nice time at the Fürstenhof. Everything was great.

We would like to thank you very much for the quick and very good hospitality. It tasted very tasty 😋. The cake was homemade and was very tasty. Thank you very much and we will recommend you.

We celebrated our 75th birthday there, very nice restaurant, service was very nice and friendly, food was delicious and coffee and home-baked cake (baked by the boss herself) were very tasty.... We can only recommend the country inn...

Family celebration for the 75th birthday. Great service, nice friendly staff, coffee and evening buffet at its best! Happy to recommend!!!

The food was very, very good, would be happy again

Excellent quality of the homemade Soeisen, very friendly and competent service, pleasant atmosphere in the dining room with fresh floral decorations on the tables. We felt very comfortable all around and would definitely recommend the Fürstenhif

Very nice and courteous staff, a boss like no other. The food is highly recommended and you should try it yourself. Will definitely come back… Nice greetings to the entire team

They say that the philosophy of the store is to make customers happy. The food is delicious. At first I thought it was too little, but they gave it to me in case I left it.

Had a very nice evening today for Valentine's Day. Many thanks to the whole team.

Very friendly service, and spontaneous changes to the plans for a private event were implemented immediately and without any problems! We were able to enter two hours before the scheduled time and received a very friendly welcome! The food was delicious and plentiful! We would be happy to return for a more enjoyable event!

A very good option for travelers to stay, everything is nice, clean, delicious food 👍🏼

Weihnachten zum Buffet immer wieder gern

Good hotel with very friendly staff and free parking.. I went to the Christmas market in Erfurt for the first weekend in Advent and was happy to get out of the city and relax here in the evening. Very good transport connections, my forgotten mobile phone charging cable could easily be borrowed from the hotel team for a few hours, comfortable beds and breakfast on Sunday morning with everything I was looking for and need.

Great ambience, very friendly staff, food is top-very good quality, is always worth a visit!!!

Just stopped for a quick meal, super good and friendly

The food was great. Service very good. We'd love to come back.

Very nice and attentive staff. The food was very tasty. There isn't a huge selection of dishes, but they were creative, regional and unusual. The portions were big enough to fill you up. The price-performance ratio was good. Can be recommended.

We went to the Christmas buffet, it was very good. Nice staff, everything clean, 5 stars

We had a really good time at brunch on Boxing Day. The food was excellent, rich and varied. In addition to various meat dishes, homemade spreads, various vegetables and a large selection of desserts, the service girls were very friendly and busy. All in all, highly recommended, we would be happy to come back.

Very friendly and courteous staff! The food was also really tasty and, if necessary, very individual, despite the large number of guests. You'll be happy to come back here - keep it up 😉👍 PS: Ideal for family dinners/celebrations

Super tasty and fresh food. We'd love to come back!

We celebrated grandma and grandpa's birthday with the whole family in this restaurant and were completely thrilled! I would particularly like to emphasize the extraordinary friendliness and the great effort of the entire staff to give us an unforgettable celebration. From the first moment we felt warmly welcomed and well looked after. The food was of excellent quality. I was particularly impressed by the entrecôte - it was perfectly prepared, incredibly tender and an absolute highlight in terms of taste! But the other dishes were also delicious and prepared with great attention to detail. Thank you for the great service and excellent food! We'd love to come back.

A buffet was organized for around 50 people. The waitresses were friendly and quick and the quality of the food was very good. Definitely a recommendation and I won't be there the last time!

Super friendly service, super delicious food, many things can be vegan/vegetarian or gluten-free. Everything is shown exceptionally well on the map. Haven't been to such a good restaurant for a long time, absolute recommendation.

A solid hotel, I recommend it purely for relaxation!

True for lunch, it was very, very good 👍 the goose leg and the dessert 🍨 was also great, as well as nice staff

You feel important and in good hands, honest Thuringian cuisine like that 😋

Food very tasty. Highly recommended

Simply inviting, cozy and wonderfully located on the outskirts of town. The waitress is super polite and competent. Reads (almost) every wish from your eyes and your smile. The dishes are a homemade, extremely freshly prepared dream Prepared. Means waiting time. But it's worth it and the very cozy dining room is really a place where you can see the attention to detail. The food, as a reminder, is the flagship of every gastronomic establishment. You can tell with every bite that the chef is an absolute professional who leaves nothing to chance. So definitely visit and enjoy as my wife and I did. Recommendation from me 100%

The restaurant was very clean, the food was plentiful and there was nothing to complain about in terms of service. It is highly recommended.

We stayed at the Fürstenhof as a family for 2 nights. The rooms are very, very simple, but clean. The breakfast was completely sufficient for our needs. The running family is very nice and the food in the restaurant is really delicious and recommended.

We ate there and you can't rate it... it was very nice, with friendly staff. There were around 30-40 people and we made reservations in advance and the evening went very well at the restaurant! Would recommend and eat there again

We were passing through here and were very satisfied with the service and quality. The conditions were very attentive and friendly, the food was delicious! The homemade apricot dumplings were a poem! We can only recommend stopping here to everyone.

We were at the Fürstenhof on the occasion of a small birthday party. The nice lady from the service was very attentive, friendly and charming. The food was delicious and special requests were taken into account. We'd love to come back.

For us as a family with 4 children, a very suitable, convenient location (of course louder due to the connecting street). Rooms were all very tidy and clean. Service good. Very friendly, courteous and thoughtful owners and service staff. Breakfast buffet with eggs, muesli and juice. Menu diverse. Nice, adequate children's playground with a sandpit. Plenty of parking spaces, even an electric car charging station!! Very nice and cozy garden to sit in.

Delicious food and a good selection. It is cozy and nicely decorated. The toilets are super clean and smell floral. Free parking spaces are available.

On August 23, 2024, a barbecue evening with music took place in the Fürstenhof. It was a really successful evening for me and my family. Despite the huge rush for the hot and cold buffet, the entire team maintained an indescribably pleasant and admirable calm. From all of us 👍👍👍 Best regards from Heiko and Steffi

We were there as a young family (2 adults + 1 child) The room was well maintained and clean. Furnishings are very simple but make you feel comfortable (very pleasant, especially with children) Plus points for the extra cuddly soft towels. Above all, the inn is very large and the beer garden is a really nice place to relax. There are even rabbits and chickens to look at. You can't avoid the vesps in the summer, but it's bearable. Food and drinks are good. Above all, the cuisine is quick (without lacking in quality) Above all, it is simply a perfect place to switch off. We immediately felt comfortable. At first I was skeptical about the distance to the city center, but the train and bus connections are very good. It was less than 7 minutes away by car. Perfect for recovering from everyday life in the evening.

The Fürstenhof is one of the few inns in the area. You can get to Erfurt quickly. Parking space free of charge. After two nights, I have to say that it is not a 3 star hotel. It's super loud at night because it's right on a busy street. Be sure to leave windows (you can still hear it). The owner was very nice, but rooms were swapped (first night) which resulted in a sleepless night as we were given a sofa bed instead of a bed. Absolutely not suitable for adults and very uncomfortable. The second night we stayed in the triple room, which we paid for. Towels, soap and a small hairdryer are available in the bathroom. Guest room was on the second floor. Breakfast is available on the first floor. It is very minimal, rolls are baked, salads are not fresh. Sausage smelled and was not edible. Coffee, tea and scrambled or fried eggs are freshly prepared. Coffee is a dark roast and not to everyone's taste. You can take your own juices. Breakfast was not satisfactory for me. Cleanliness 3/5. You can use the restaurant, but the prices are higher than in Erfurt. When checking out asked for a discount, which was given, but with "stupid" comments. Would not use the Fürstenhof service again.

We celebrated our family celebration in the Fürstenhof. The food was very tasty and well priced so that there weren't tons left over. The cake (all homemade) was also very tasty. The service was friendly and attentive. The drinks we ordered came quickly. The rooms are cozy and lovingly furnished. The location of the Fürstenhof is very good, as it is easy to reach due to its proximity to the motorway. There are sufficient parking spaces available. A beautiful beer garden invites you to linger. Absolutely recommended!

Very nice service, excellent cuisine. Recommended!!

Very friendly service, great cuisine and a wonderful ambience.

The food and service was wonderful again, thank you very much and keep it up!

We had lunch here and it was pretty much the best restaurant visit I've ever enjoyed. The service was warm, caring, courteous and attentive. We were asked about raising seat cushions, special requests and intolerances were fully accommodated - with reassurance from the kitchen - and the food was great: no flavor enhancers, no additives - honest, sophisticated cuisine. Of course the preparation takes time. It was definitely not the last time I was there. Thanks for the great stay!

We were guests here often before Corona and were always very satisfied. That has changed today. We got seats relatively quickly even though many of them had already been reserved. We also received the menu promptly but then we had to wait a long time to order. Finally our drinks arrived and my husband's glass was missing. Then I saw a waitress take some food outside, bring it back in, and walk aimlessly through the restaurant several times until it landed ice cold in front of me. We were still waiting for the missing glass, which was finally brought as requested. By the way, we ordered the same food, the only difference was the portion size. After a few bites I had enough and let the food go back. My husband waited another 30 minutes for his food, which was very hot and delicious. A nice waitress was very sorry that I was so dissatisfied and offered me a small discount. We had the feeling that both waitresses were overwhelmed with the number of guests and had little structure. I was actually really looking forward to a delicious lunch and left disappointed and hungry.

Lunch at the Fürstenhof in Frienstedt b. Erfurt was good again. We made a good choice with the “Hirsch”. The service was really attentive and friendly. Unfortunately, we had the impression that she was a bit overwhelmed and slightly uncoordinated. We really enjoyed the additional, large pot of gravy. This is not a given. The food is considered stomach-friendly. The tables with the beautiful roses were extremely attractive and very inviting. I would have liked to give a top rating, but the waiting time for the food has to be deducted.

Very tasty Thuringian cuisine in the restaurant with filled giant dumplings😀

A nice and delicious end to the end of the day!!! The asparagus from the region was excellent. All very friendly and familiar faces.

It is a lovingly run country inn in a beautifully quiet location in the west of Erfurt, which can be easily reached by tram and then after a few bus stops.

Very tasty and highly recommended. The service is very friendly and the atmosphere is very cozy. There is also a small playground for children, bunnies, chickens and a playhouse.

Today we ate ice cream 🍧. Very tasty 😋. The service is great as always 👍.

delicious food and friendly service 😁

We celebrated our mother's 80th birthday here today. Everything was top notch. The food was great, very varied, tasty and lovingly prepared. It was praised by all guests. The decoration was very tasteful and appropriate for the occasion. The boss patiently responded to every extra request. The cake buffet was simply delicious. The staff were very polite and friendly. At the end of the celebration, even the takeaway food was conveniently packed. All in all, it was a very successful day with many beautiful experiences and delicacies. Thank you for that.

A really good place that is worth visiting!

Top service, nice staff and delicious food.

Today we had lunch at the Fürstenhof for the first time. The food, the service, the friendliness and the ambience definitely deserve 5 points. We were very satisfied and will definitely stop by before or after the next time we visit EGA. Thank you for the friendly hospitality.

Super friendly service, delicious food and a cool location

Absolutely recommended for anyone who likes to travel by bike. Great location, great food and very nice service

I have been a regular visitor to the regulars' table for three years now. All I can say is that the service is always friendly and courteous. Even on turbulent evenings and when the house was full, there were always opportunities to take a seat. I can only praise the service of the house and say everyone keep it up. Definitely worth a visit! Karsta

Great food at fair prices! Waiter very accommodating and nice, keep it up 👍👍

Inconspicuous from the outside at first glance, but at second glance it's definitely worth a visit and even has a nice outdoor area (beer garden, which you can't even see from the street). We were there on Easter Sunday with 10 people. I (we) have to say the best German cuisine that (we) have enjoyed in a long time. Despite the full house, everything was under control and the fact that it takes a little more time for the food to arrive is made clear by a free starter compensated. Respect and recognition, you are one of the best restaurants in the area. If you haven't been here, you've missed something.

Yesterday we went to dinner with a large group... what can I say? We were more than satisfied. The hospitality was great... the food was fresh, hot and super tasty. Any time....

Very nice atmosphere. Our stay was very pleasant in every respect. Food and service as you would expect, courteous and nice 👌

The restaurant is very comfortably furnished and clean. Food (real Thuringian cuisine) and drinks came quickly. The food was delicious and the service was super attentive, friendly and always with a smile. Unfortunately I can't say anything about the rooms as we were only restaurant visitors. The proximity to the motorway still needs to be praised and we would be happy to come back.

Utterly disappointed… Horrible service… We planned to eat here for the entire week of our vacation. On the last evening we finally made it. The price-performance ratio seemed quite okay to us. Our Asian waitress was very friendly and really served us kindly. In our opinion, two other waitresses didn't work at all. As restaurant testers, these two ladies would have deserved a warning. One of the two ladies had impossible makeup and clothes (you would have thought we had ended up in a night bar), the other had an absolutely rude demeanor. I still had food in my mouth and on my plate, but it had already disappeared. At our neighboring table, after the wrong food was delivered, an older couple was warned very badly that the meal would take a while and then it would be fine. No apology or accommodation. Very bad, in our opinion. The rude waitress noticed our displeasure and very intrusively offered us aperitifs. My partner said yes, I didn't want anything more. The “rude woman” then held cake under my nose, which was more than intrusive :-( even though I said no several times. Conclusion, we have visited many restaurants, but this was the first bad experience and hopefully it will be the last. This was my first time worthy of a review.

Thanks also for the nice service, the food was delicious and the service was great

You can eat very well here. The staff is friendly. The proximity to the exhibition center is also an advantage for me.

My family comes here regularly for birthdays and family events. The service is always very attentive and friendly. The food is delicious and much of the menu is made from local resources and lovingly handcrafted. Combined with a pleasant atmosphere and a beautiful dining room - perfect and would be happy again

We were there for dinner in the evening. The schnitzel was ok, but for the price of €18.90 it could have been presented a little more attractively. The touch of half a slice of cucumber is less decorative. Everything was just packed on the plate, the fries under the schnitzel - not nice either. Unfortunately, the staff on Saturday evening gave the impression that they were a nuisance. As a "non-regular guest" you won't receive very friendly service. The regulars at the next table were happily rewarded with free desserts. From a hygienic point of view, the waitress's hair would be better styled if it wasn't half stuck in the food when the food was served. For us, this was a unique visit that we unfortunately cannot recommend. A pity!

In my opinion, absolutely not recommended. Staff completely off track. For 75 € you are taken to the top, without elevator and room 3.5 square meters and half is a sloping ceiling + small bathroom. When asking for a price, the reason given is that it is a trade fair and therefore, even though the parking space is only slightly occupied. There wasn't an opportunity to eat every day either. 3 out of 4 days no cleaning was requested and yet it was done. Door sign for peace and quiet were not planned and not brought. Don't take any rubbish with you when cleaning. When we asked, we got a different room for almost €100 a night and there wasn't even a shower room and towels weren't changed either. Scrambled eggs and fried eggs were given for breakfast. Of course, drinks cost extra :-( Location is good, but it doesn't justify the price or the service. Not for me anymore, thank you.

We were only there to eat. It's right on the B7. The service was very friendly and the food was delicious. I can't give any information about the hotel. Parking spaces directly in front of the house.

We stopped here for dinner while passing through. There is nothing to complain about! Super nice service, attentive service, absolutely delicious food. Can definitely be recommended!!!

It was a great day, delicious food, great service, very nice staff! We'd love to come back! LG from Bindersleben

Since we wanted to go to the trade fair in Erfurt, I looked for a restaurant that was directly on the way there. We weren't guests of the hotel but were there to eat. We were welcomed into a very nice atmosphere with very pretty decoration and very well maintained and clean. The staff is consistently very friendly and on the ball. Our friendly service showed years of competence and specialist knowledge. The menu offers plenty of choice for every taste. The food was very delicious and everything is freshly prepared. Ultimately we booked a table straight away for next time. Clear recommendation from our side. Best location right on the B7 just outside Erfurt with plenty of parking spaces. Addendum: Went for dinner with the family yesterday on February 16, 2024 on the occasion of my birthday. The restaurant was well attended and despite the lack of staff, everything possible was done to keep the guests happy. The dishes were again all freshly prepared and we had different versions of schnitzel. Everyone enjoyed it excellently. It was a lovely evening and we look forward to the next time.

Today we went to the Fürstenhof for a 4-course menu. It was an all-round successful evening with delicious food and a great ambience.

The food was very good and also the service 👍🏻

Last weekend we had a family celebration with around 20 guests and an overnight stay for everyone. The smaller of the two rooms was reserved and prepared for us. After prior consultation, we decided on an evening buffet. It was a good decision, there was something for everyone - including the children. The food was consistently very tasty and handmade. The rooms are lovingly decorated and comfortable. The personal support from the boss was excellent, and the other staff also took great care of our well-being. All in all, it was a successful evening, a relaxing overnight stay for everyone and a hearty breakfast the next morning. In our opinion, the Fürstenhof is highly recommended for both a delicious dinner and a family celebration. Fox family
