Hotel Knoblauch Friedrichshafen in Friedrichshafen

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! I received a very friendly welcome upon check-in, and the entire staff was helpful and attentive at all times. The room was modern, clean, and equipped with everything you need for a pleasant stay. I particularly like the comfortable bed and the peaceful atmosphere – perfect for relaxation. The breakfast was also excellent: a wide selection, freshly prepared, and high-quality. The hotel's central location also made it easy to explore the surrounding area. Overall, a great experience – I will definitely be back and can wholeheartedly recommend the hotel!

Great hotel! The spa area with its natural pool, swimming pool, and bubble lounger is fantastic. The food (3 courses) is delicious, excellent value for money, and the breakfast buffet for just €7 is unbeatable. The rooms are modern and clean, and the free water from the tap is really convenient. The service is super friendly, and parking is perfectly acceptable for €5. Highly recommended!

Rooms ok, good Hotel for business- beergarden offers good beer and service was fine

A very nice facility with excellent staff who are always very accommodating. We would gladly return anytime! We had a wheelchair with us and were pleased to find that the accessible room was perfect.

The hotel is located "somewhat" away from the city center, but this is not a problem as you can get into town very quickly with the "Echt Bodensee Card" and the nearby bus stop.

Simply fantastic. We booked the culinary special for 3 days. We spontaneously extended our stay for another 2 days, which was no problem; we were very pleased. Everything was top-notch, the food was simply delicious and beautifully presented. Breakfast was very varied and had a large selection. Everything was regional or homemade. Staff was friendly and knew what they were doing. Rooms were very modern and beautifully furnished. It's great that they also value energy and ecological sustainability.

We enjoyed a delicious meal with our family and were served excellently by Felix, the waiter.

Wonderful hotel with beautiful territory, recreation areas, swimming pool and saunas! The staff is very friendly. Thank you for a wonderful holiday!

Everything is just perfect here, we'll be back ❤️.

Nice modern hotel. Friendly staff. Good breakfast choice. Large car park just behind the hotel. Sauna area was good with three saunas, two indoors and one just outside in the garden that open at different times between 1200 and 2100.

A very successful extension to the long-established hotel. The dining room, indoor pool, and coffee corner are all modern and inviting. The hotel prioritizes sustainability. The breakfast is plentiful, and the dinner (à la carte) is delicious. The staff is very friendly. Conclusion: We'd go back anytime!

Highly recommended. The top address in Friedrichshafen!

Beautiful, modern hotel. Free use of indoor pool & sauna facilities. Room comes with a balcony & saunasupplies (robe & hamamtowel) to enjoy your stay carefree. Friendly staff. Good parking facilities on their grounds.

Very good hotel. Very friendly and helpful staff!!! Very good, highly recommended!! Swimming pool and sauna, everything was great. Unfortunately, no roofing (parking, motorcycle)

We stayed at Hotel Knoblauch for four days. The hotel is located 2km from the town center, which is easily walkable. The breakfast was excellent. For a four-star hotel, we did miss a few amenities: a refrigerator in the room. Air conditioning! It was incredibly hot in the room. There was little space in the bathroom for storing things. The reception and staff were very friendly.

Highly recommended! From start to finish, the service was very friendly, and we felt very well looked after. The room was incredibly beautiful, clean, and spacious. The spa area also offered a wide range of options. The candlelight dinner was beautifully decorated, and the food was truly delicious. Everyone went out of their way to ensure we had an incredible weekend. Thank you all!

The hotel and everything that goes with it is superbly maintained. The staff is super friendly. We particularly liked the outdoor natural pool, as well as the indoor pool; it was also very well maintained and had a bubble lounger, which was a pleasant surprise for us. The breakfast and the selection are amazing; everything is fresh and locally sourced. And what was even more special for us were the restaurant visits. The food here was simply top-notch, super delicious, exceptionally great dishes. It must also be said that the side salad is amazing, and the dressing is a dream. A good wine selection, and the staff here is also super friendly. The hotel is almost perfect, the value for money is very good, and this won't be our last visit. A massage is, of course, highly recommended; we are completely satisfied! One small criticism: the silicone in the shower needs to be replaced. The outdoor area of the indoor pool needs to be cleaned. On the other hand, what can you do about the birds and their droppings? The staff probably can't keep up with cleaning.

Our favorite hotel on Lake Constance. Everything just fits perfectly here. The rooms in the new extension are comfortable, modern, and always pleasantly warm thanks to central ventilation, even in midsummer temperatures. The breakfast is plentiful and delicious, leaving nothing to be desired. The dinner menu offers an extensive selection of fresh and delicious dishes, served by consistently polite and attentive staff. The hotel offers much more (an indoor swimming pool and outdoor swimming pond), a garden with sun loungers, saunas, comfortable seating areas both indoors and outdoors, self-service snacks and drinks 24/7, and much more. We've already booked our regular room again for next year!

From the very first moment, we felt welcome and comfortable. A very friendly and familiar atmosphere!

We stayed for a week at the end of June 2025. What can we say? It deserves 5 stars in every respect, an oasis of well-being. Completely satisfied, we would stay again anytime. We can only recommend it to everyone.

If I could, I would give it twice as many stars; my stay at the Hotel Knoblauch was simply fantastic. The room and bathroom were very nice and clean. The breakfast buffet was plentiful and definitely had something for everyone. The service also deserves high praise; always attentive, friendly, and flexible – putting together a table for a larger group? No problem at all, and the waiter even remembered what we'd been drinking the night before and was able to serve us right away 😃 That's what makes a hotel stay enjoyable; I'm already looking forward to the next time!

We stayed there for three days. The room (with stairs) was very large and perfect for working. The wellness area was clean and adequate. The breakfast was very fresh. We jogged from the hotel to the lake and were there in 20 minutes (quite leisurely and with lots of views). The route was great, so it's perfect for athletes. Our highlight, however, was the hotel's own restaurant. We ate here one evening because we didn't want to go back to the lake. I can only give it 10 out of 10. We had dishes from the monthly specials or the special menu because we love trying new things. I can only say it was very good, fresh ingredients, great food. The service was more than accommodating, so it's definitely worth an evening!

We spent three nights here. From the first impression, the hotel scored highly. There is ample parking, and the staff welcomed us very warmly. The rooms were very clean and modern. The food in the restaurant, while a bit more expensive, is very tasty, and the breakfast buffet offers a great selection and good coffee. The wellness area is pleasant, but not overwhelming. The hotel also scores points for its good location. With the Lake Constance card, which you can get on-site, you can take the bus. The stop is right next to the hotel parking lot, and the ride takes about 15 minutes (depending on the line). All in all, it was a great stay.

In the 20 years I've stayed at the Knoblauch during HAMRADIO, it has evolved from a charming country inn to a modern 4* wellness hotel. It's still very much a family-friendly place, and I feel right at home! <3 I'm already looking forward to the next time!

Didn't stay here, just came to eat. Food and service were both excellent. Price was reasonable too!

Positives: - Good and quiet location (15 minutes by bus to the harbor) - Bus stop right next to the hotel - Plenty of wellness options (sauna area, fitness, yoga, swimming pool, massages, etc.) - Very friendly, attentive staff, making you feel at home - Elevator and parking (€5 per night) available, some outdoor areas are covered - You can skip daily room service and instead receive a €3 discount in the restaurant or lounge Negatives/Suggestions for Improvement: - Compact room, but the bathroom is relatively small. The mirror is attached to the side of the closet, so it's hard to see into. - Warm in the room at night (curtains are translucent, so blinds are closed and ventilation is poor). A ceiling fan could cause dry mucous membranes. - Indoor pool available with enough space for swimming, unfortunately no options for aqua fitness, for example, although massages and even yoga are offered. - When using the sauna area, unfortunately, only one sauna (Finnish sauna at 85°C) was open. This might be too intense a start for inexperienced sauna users, but otherwise the sauna area is clean and has a good kitchenette. PS: Yes, the outside temperature was 27-32°C during our stay.

Incredible hosts. You leave feeling like you've been with friends.

Without a refrigerator, it's impossible! A fan provides some airflow, but it dries out the mucous membranes and doesn't cool things down (approx. 28°C at night). In hot weather, quilts aren't recommended—thin sheets are recommended instead. It's best to have both options, given the prices.

Thank you for the lovely stay. The staff is very friendly.

Located in a quiet neighbourhood, just 2 min away from the "highway". Rooms are modern, comfortable and very clean. Excellent restaurant offering creative dishes together with swabian classics. Local / fair / homemade products offered whenever possible. Yet prices are still absolutely fair. Opened every evening, very friendly and efficient service. Would definitely sleep and eat there again!

Highly recommended! Friendly service, which is also super attentive. 'Welcome home!' is their motto and guiding principle, which is noticeable.

No air conditioning in the rooms. 2 km from Lake Constance and center.

Very friendly welcome. Great room. Food with something for every taste. Excellent breakfast. Quiet location. Everything was perfect. Thank you.

Due to illness overnight, a visit was impossible, and the cancellation deadline the night before couldn't be met. Unfortunately, no leniency was offered, even when rebooking for a different time. Rules are certainly necessary, but I would have appreciated a small concession, such as a voucher.

I highly recommend this hotel! It has a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. We had a new, very large, and modern room. The rooms of our fellow travelers (we had four in total) were also very nice. All the staff are extremely friendly, the breakfast is excellent, and everything is very clean. The location is quiet, right next to a bus stop, making it easy to get into Friedrichshafen. The route is also easily manageable on foot. We also had a delicious dinner there. The parking lot is huge, and it's quiet at night.

We booked the Hotel Knoblauch for a weekend trip from May 31st to June 2nd, 2025. What can I say? Unfortunately, it can't get more than 5 stars. The hotel deserves more. All the staff were very friendly and the service was first-class. The cleanliness was top-notch. The rooms and hotel facilities were excellent. Half-board included, allowing guests to put together their own 3-course menu. The food was absolutely delicious. The location is prime. You can leave the car behind; with the Lake Constance card you receive, you can take the bus anywhere for free. There's a bus stop right in front of the hotel. All in all, I can recommend this hotel without reservation. 👍 We'd love to come back.

This was our third time here and, as always, we were thrilled. Beautiful rooms, excellent food, and a top-notch wellness area. Thank you for the wonderful stay.

Very nice staff and modern rooms

A beautiful hotel, super nice and helpful staff and an excellent meal. I would love to come back

A very beautiful and quietly located hotel with excellent service. The rooms are all very nice and modern. The garden house is especially beautiful and truly wonderful. The breakfast buffet leaves nothing to be desired. The food prepared in the restaurant is also very good. All the staff are very friendly and attentive. The saunas and the swimming pool are excellent. There is a large parking lot. We have felt very comfortable here for years and always enjoy our time at the Knoblauch.

Great room Great breakfast and dinner Indoor pool and wellness center Absolutely great value

I was completely satisfied with everything..very friendly and nice staff...a hotel that I can only recommend

Great rooms and incredibly good food

Very tasty food, the prices are also completely reasonable.

From the reception, the offer, the great room, the very friendly service, fine food. Alkes at its best! The beautiful garden with a natural pond would have been so beautiful if the weather had cooperated. Thank you for the time out with you!!!

Modern and cozy hotel. Clean rooms, quiet yet central location, top service, very friendly staff. We were only there for a short time, but we want to come back and are looking forward to it. Recommended for a short and long stay

We chose the hotel because we had tickets for a trade fair event. We are completely satisfied with our stay, the staff is super nice and attentive. The rooms are clean and nothing is missing. You can take water carafes to your room for free. We even received free public transport tickets from the hotel for the entire stay. The food in the restaurant is regional, delicious and prepared with love. We are happy to recommend the hotel!

It has rarely happened to me that everything was perfect from A to Z during a hotel stay. That was the case at the Hotel Knoblauch. I recommend the hotel without reservation. A visit to the restaurant is also very worthwhile.

There are 5 beautiful people in this hotel Days spent. Rooms very comfortable and spacious. Breakfast and dinner were great. Nothing was missing, for breakfast or dinner.

A well-kept house 🏡 Great food! The employees are friendly despite the large number of customers!

We had a very nice time here and the restaurant is also highly recommended. The wellness area is great, with the spacious sauna area and the indoor pool.

Went to the restaurant for dinner. Can only recommend this restaurant. It's a little more expensive! But! The food is very, very GOOD! The young lady on staff was very attentive but not intrusive. Overall, it was a successful evening.

The food is fine, only the Vitello Tonnato was marginal. Very clear for the price, veal perfect and tasty and tender, but the famous tuna cream was homeopathic little, very unfortunate. The chef is welcome to let me show him how to do it properly.

We spent our girls' weekend at the Hotel Knoblauch and were absolutely thrilled. The reception was very friendly, and we were absolutely delighted with the maisonette room. We immediately tried out the new swimming pool and the very attractive sauna area with a natural pond. Everything was fantastic. And in the evening, we had a very good meal in the hotel's restaurant and received courteous service. What can I say? It was a fantastic weekend at the Hotel Knoblauch, and we'll definitely be back.

The hotel is very modern and clean, the staff is really friendly. Great breakfast and restaurant! The spa area has everything your heart desires. 100% recommendation!

Rooms, infrastructure, parking, breakfast absolutely recommended. Very friendly employees

We spent a lovely weekend at the hotel and were very satisfied. The price-performance ratio is great: clean, cozy room with a balcony, including access to the wellness area with sauna, pool and drinks. Everything was clean and tidy. Breakfast was also included in the price – rich and tasty. We would particularly like to praise the friendly staff. The location is also very practical - only about 15 minutes by bus to the center, the stop is right next to the hotel. A shopping center is also easily accessible on foot. We would like to stay longer and will definitely come back!

Never again... Fish for my wife on the first evening resulted in food poisoning. 2nd evening there was only soup. The price for half board was charged in full, even though it could not be used on the first evening. A lot of ready-made meals are cooked (ravioli, Swabian apple cuisine, chocolate souffle, soup garnish. I expect a lot more in a 4* hotel Service was mostly friendly, but the fish poisoning was skillfully ignored three times, which made everything positive forgotten. Quote from the waitress when we let the fish go back: "I can't do anything about the kitchen." That's clear to me, but an apology from the chef or the owners would have been at least. Room nice and clean but as others have already written, extremely over-perfumed and that hardly goes away even after 2 days of constant airing, which doesn't make staying in the room pleasant. Pool and sauna ok so far. Unfortunately, both are spatially far apart from each other. I found out in the bill that the parking space costs €5 per night. There would have been enough space on the direct side street. Location is ok, you can quickly get to the center by bus, and you can get to the trade fair in 7 minutes by car.

It was perfect, clean room and great breakfest.

Very tasty meal in the restaurant. Any time and gladly again

Very cozy hotel restaurant and wonderful staff. Large private parking lot, various rooms, wellness area, swimming pool. Delicious food, different cuisine. Coffee bar ☕️ with snacks and delicious cakes.

Very beautiful place. Good scenery.

It would have been a nice stay, but unfortunately the room smelled so strongly of sewage. No other room in the same category was available, and no real discount was available. They were quite inflexible, but they did give us some air freshener. A real shame. Therefore, unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend it.

Unfortunately the room smelled very unpleasant. Another room of the same category not available due to a larger event. But that's not our problem. It's a shame that no real discount is possible. Half would definitely have been appropriate! The 2 hour journey wasn't worth it for this hotel. Pretty inflexible, but they gave us a room spray. Very unfortunate. Therefore unfortunately never again in this hotel and no recommendation. The service staff was nice.

Great pool & spa – the chef knows what he's doing! Perfect zander 👏👏

Well, the bathroom in the double room is at most equivalent to a single room. When you sit on the toilet, which is also in the bathroom, you bump into things everywhere. Absolutely not suitable for people with a bit of a firmer frame. The beds are extremely hard. Neither of us slept a wink. Plus, we were sore the next day. What was good was the breakfast.

A very pleasant stay here during a business trip to the Friedrichshafen trade fair. Very pleasant atmosphere, friendly, attentive staff. Five very good dinners in the evening. The double room was nice and spacious, with comfortable mattresses. I can't comment on the swimming pool; unfortunately, I didn't have time.

A wonderful place to spend a wonderful time. The room is beautifully furnished and clean. The staff, both at reception and in the restaurant, are very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast is served from 6:30-10:30!! Fantastic! The restaurant is excellent! The pool, sauna... Everything was perfect. Thank you so much!

We spent the weekend at Hotel Knoblauch and we really enjoyed it! The rooms, sports facilities, and wellness area are very modern, clean, and well-maintained, and the staff are super friendly and welcoming. Everything seems very well thought out, and we particularly liked the obvious emphasis on sustainability in many aspects. The food is excellent (and apparently mostly regional and homemade), and there are plenty of options for vegetarians and vegans too. Highly recommended 👍😊.

Very nice stay. Friendly service and a beautiful hotel.

Well-kept restaurant. Very good food. Great ambience and very nice and attentive service.

We were very satisfied for the second time this January, more than that. I have the impression that satisfied people work here and pass this feeling on to the guests, all the employees from housekeeping to the masseur are remarkably friendly and more than that, in my opinion After all, it's not the usual business friendliness that you often encounter in hotel businesses, but rather authentic friendliness. The food is extremely tasty and the dishes are very harmoniously portioned and taste-matched. The wellness area is attractive and allows for real relaxation. Be sure to try the Badener cremant as an aperitif in the restaurant. Speaking of Badener cremant: I personally also notice little ecological things that are extremely positive. For example, the €3 voucher if you don't have your towels washed every day, which you can then redeem at the bar or donate to a good cause in the café or at reception. Great thing. David told us that this fundraising campaign raises around €8 to €10,000 a year for a good cause. The equipment with cosmetics also belongs to the same category b. Organic and vegan. And not only that, but also pleasant on the skin and in the hair and in the nose. Class. Of course, always an important factor in a hotel: the bed and sleep. We had a high-quality box spring bed and slept wonderfully. With that in mind, see you on your wedding anniversary in January 2026.

We were there for the wellness weekend and were totally thrilled! The hotel is very nice, the rooms are spacious and clean and the people who work there are so kind and friendly that you rarely experience. Gladly again!

Wonderful hotel with wellness and indoor pool as well as fine food. Large room unfortunately wet room with sewer smell.

Overall our stay was very nice. Staff was helpful and very polite. Breakfast was great and had a lot of choice, only dinner at the candlelight dinner could have been more, there were a lot of dishes that weren't to our taste. Rooms and hotel very clean and very well equipped. The only bad thing about our stay was the massage. First of all, the employee was totally uninterested in the massage and greeting. Additionally, the appointment was at 10:40 a.m. She came exactly at 10:40 a.m. By the time you were ready for the massage, it was already 10:45-10:50 a.m. She was still there Busy with something else for 5 minutes. At 11:05 my wife was ready and out. So I pay 40 euros for 30 minutes of massage and only get less than 20 minutes of it, which is totally rude and unprofessional.

An absolutely recommended hotel. Very nice staff. Great price/performance ratio. Very good restaurant with good portions and a rich breakfast. I'd love to come back!

The staff is really exceptionally friendly. The kitchen is fantastic and the wellness area is very nice. We'll definitely be back!

Very nice atmosphere whether as a couple or in a large group. Food very good. Staff very attentive.

Superb hotel Remarkable services Personal always at your service

Very nice hotel with extremely great staff. Modern rooms with comfortable beds. Pool is large and small but good wellness area. Dinner is the highlight in the hotel.

A very nice hotel 🏨, clean rooms 😊, a rich breakfast buffet, very tasty 3-course menu, a super friendly staff 👍 big praise to the whole team, a ❤️ THANK YOU for a great time with you. Gladly again and highly recommended 😄🥳

The perfect wellness holiday for us! It was simply fantastic. Wonderful SPA area, fantastic food and everything you need. What was particularly appreciated was the very friendly, very accommodating staff and the great service! Rarely had it like that. Thanks for the great weekend ☺️ we'll be back!! Highly recommended. Also easily accessible by train/bus.

Visiting friends, I don't think you can say it better. Friendly, nice and motivated staff, a great breakfast buffet, super tasty food, great bar, nice swimming pool and massages. Regional food and suppliers also make a holiday here. Great concept and ambience, are very satisfied and enthusiastic.

It was very nice here! A great team!

Nice restaurant, food very good, friendly staff.

Nice rooms, pleasant room size, very clean! Great SPA area

We wanted to celebrate our father-in-law's birthday with 9 people in the restaurant. Unfortunately, the Schwabenteller dish is only offered with melted onions. The request for fried onions for the "birthday child" was rejected and it was pointed out that otherwise the fries in the deep fryer would taste like onions. According to the menu, the onion roast is also served with melted onions. An absurdity. Is that an onion melted roast then....? Even if the food delivered - without onions - was very good. The uneasy feeling remained - the evening was over. Very unfortunate.

The hotel is extremely clean, the owners and employees are friendly and helpful at all times. The restaurant has wonderful food, highly recommended! I would love to come back to the Hotel Knoblauch on my next business trip! :)

Really great hotel. Pure relaxation and wellness.

We had a wonderful birthday meal, very good value for money, friendly service. We'll tell it further

Hello dear reader, For work I am in the hotel twice a week. This has really “picked me up” for six months now. Super easy reservation over the phone, uncomplicated check-in and accommodating when the gym opens (in the morning). The restaurant and the waitress (Miguel)…I would poach them immediately! All in all. Recommended to my colleagues at the company. We'll be back! Keep it up!👏

Fantastic place to stay, facilities like pool, Sauna, restaurant, good parking space available Suggest to have continental menu for foreigners

Great hotel, the selection of vegetarian and vegan food is very good and also tasty! The rooms are clean and functional, unfortunately the ventilation in our bathroom didn't work optimally! Gladly again!

Rooms good and wellness too. New wood-fired sauna - unfortunately the heating times are somewhat limited.

We stayed in the garden room with balcony for 2 nights over the weekend. This is in the new complex of the hotel and the room was quiet, very clean and you just felt comfortable. The breakfast was excellent, so many regional delicacies. Great bread from a local bakery, various homemade jams, fresh fruit and delicious coffee. Our highlight was the dinner (3 course menu), which we were able to choose from a variety of dishes. The food was sooooo good and again a lot of it was homemade and regional. The service in the hotel is outstanding!!! We received a warm welcome and especially at dinner the service was a 10 out of 10. Friendly, attentive and we simply felt right at home as guests. Everyone, really every employee in this hotel is nice and has a smile on their face. The sauna area is small but nice. And the location of the hotel is great, just 10 minutes by bus and you are at beautiful Lake Constance. Thanks for the great weekend. We'll be back.

As always, we were extremely satisfied with our stay. Rooms, service, breakfast/restaurant at the usual high level. We'd love to come back

Very nice hotel, modern equipment. Tasty cuisine!

Quietly located wellness hotel with beautiful rooms, friendly staff and delicious cuisine for breakfast/lunch and dinner. Wellness area very hygienic and in order...highly recommended

My personal feeling: At the beginning I didn't have high expectations because the website had potential for my taste. But when I arrived, a different positive picture emerged. We were treated really friendly by every member of staff and we simply felt comfortable. The room and the hotel as a whole were clean and well maintained. The pool water could be a little warmer but you can relax despite all that. The food was really good and it really filled you up. I can recommend this hotel and look forward to the next visit. (Thanks to the man who always makes such funny comments ;) )

High-quality house with very good kitchen, nice terrace, good service. Excellent food at reasonable prices.
