Steig-Alm Hotel & Restaurant in Bad Marienberg (Westerwald)

We celebrated our wedding here and then stayed overnight at the hotel. Our every wish was catered to, and the team was world-class.

A place to work and relax at the same time, more than recommendable as a conference hotel, the entire staff was super friendly, from reception to the kitchen

The food and the service was very good, I can only recommend it and would eat there again and again. Unfortunately, I can't say anything about the rooms because I didn't have a room.

We were only there for lunch. Everything was fine. Most of the waiters were very friendly, and we enjoyed our meal. The food is decent, although the prices are quite high. However, you don't really feel welcome when you ask for a table (without a reservation) and the lady at the entrance rolls her eyes and seems annoyed. If it weren't for hungry children, we probably would have left.

The schnitzel was average, edible, but nothing special. It was a decent portion with fries and a side salad. The cheese spaetzle was the size of a child's portion and also nothing special. The service was abysmal, with a disinterested and unfriendly waitress. The interior is quite nice. We won't be going back, which is a shame.

We spent two nights here with several guests in different rooms for a celebration. Every wish was truly fulfilled and our needs were met. The staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. The rooms are spacious, modern, and very clean. We highly recommend the Steigalm Hotel and would be happy to return.

A beautiful hotel in a quiet location with very new rooms. The restaurant right next door is unbeatable. Excellent value for money and atmosphere. You feel like you're in Bavaria, in a mountain hut. Fantastic!

We went to a restaurant with friends yesterday. We've never experienced such poor service. Despite having a reservation, we had to search for a suitable table. We weren't escorted to our table, but were told the table would be cleaned immediately. Far from it. Only after we pointed this out did an unfriendly waitress wipe the table with a dry cloth, which was extremely unhygienic. Drinks and food were served, and we had to pick them up ourselves. Plates were cleared away even though not everyone at the table had finished eating. The food itself was, unfortunately, just below average; the schnitzel and rump steak didn't justify the price.

Highly recommended. The food came quickly. Very tasty. The price/performance ratio was exceptionally good. Highly recommended.

A hotel, restaurant, and staff with heart! Whether in the hotel or the adjacent restaurant, everything is just right here. Highly recommended!

We celebrated our wedding at the Steigalm. The team spoiled us and our guests so much. It was a wonderful day with great food, outstanding service, and a complete, carefree package, so we enjoyed every minute to the fullest. The children were happy with their breaks at the forest playground and the zoo. Friends and family had time to relax in the beautifully decorated beer garden. After the celebration, the guests could simply fall into bed next door in the beautiful resort, and we even had a wonderful morning together at breakfast. A big thank you to the team. You're fantastic!

Nice ambience, delicious waffles, the coffee was a little too weak.

Best location for corporate events. Laura & Dana are the best employees!

Really nice here. Didn't stay at the hotel, just ate.

Top food, top service, fantastic, smooth operation, everything went very well!

Very nice location Great process Dana and her team are really great, happy to come anytime ☺️

On August 23, 2025, we had our class reunion there again. The food was excellent, and the service was friendly and prompt (despite the packed house). The atmosphere was cozy and inviting. I can recommend this place to everyone without exception.

Very pleasant atmosphere, just like everywhere else, and that's not because of the food, but because of the prices. I didn't eat anything, so only 4 points.

The food was great. "Laura" served us wonderfully. We were there with the association, and I've already shared the location with my colleagues. I'll definitely be back.

We were there with a small group of eight people. Besides the good food and the wide selection of drinks, I especially remember the staff. It won't be the last time we/I were here.

Unfortunately, I can only comment on the restaurant, as we only sat in the beer garden for lunch. 🤷 There was a small Sunday menu, the beer garden was busy, and the staff was friendly. The food arrived relatively quickly, and we enjoyed it. One server seemed to be still in training; she was only allowed to bring food and drinks and clear away. Therefore, it was a bit time-consuming to place new drink orders and pay later. But all in all, it's definitely worth a visit!

It was great. Thanks again. Excellent service.

We only used the restaurant yesterday. The service was very friendly and helpful. The food was simply fantastic, fresh, and delicious. Thank you for the lovely evening, and we'd love to come back.

The waitress "Laura" was particularly friendly and made us feel very comfortable. Thank you ❤️ The food was incredibly delicious. We'll definitely be back 😍

It was a very nice evening and delicious. Laura's service deserves special mention; it was very courteous and personable. Best wishes 😊

We visited the restaurant for lunch on a Sunday. The staff was very friendly, the food came quickly, and it was delicious.

A very beautiful, quiet Alpine-style hotel. The rooms are very spacious, and the bathrooms are modern and equally generously sized. From the balcony, you can enjoy a magnificent view of the Westerwald mountains. The breakfast buffet is extensive. Rolls, croissants, bread, cold cuts, cheese, a selection of jams, eggs... the day can begin. In the adjoining restaurant, you can enjoy delicious waffles in the afternoon and feast in the evening. For us, it was an all-round successful short break. Thanks to Ms. Kreckel and the team at the Steig Alm Hotel. For children of all ages, a visit to the wildlife park, which begins on the opposite side of the hotel, is worthwhile.

We were invited there for dinner. I had roast beef with onions, cold fried potatoes, a gravy mash, and onions that were like straw. My husband's schnitzel was okay, but the fries were way too salty. No apology, they charged the full price.

We had a very, very delicious meal here and received excellent service from Laura. She was very accommodating to my wife's intolerances. She does a fantastic job. The roast beef with onions was a dream. Thank you so much for everything. We'll be back, even if we have to drive a bit.

No hotel visits, just ate. Friendly service 🍀

Great restaurant 🤩super service 😃and very tasty food

A catastrophe. One star is too many here. We had booked a lovely table to celebrate our 34th wedding anniversary. The lovely table was in a shabby conservatory next to a counter made of crates. Well, we thought, maybe the food would make up for it. But unfortunately, wishful thinking was the father of thought. A grill platter for two people that we ordered turned out to be overcooked and inedible meat. After we finally found a waiter, we were offered a new meal after a while. The apology was that there was a large group inside. Sorry, is that why they serve a meal like that? We were fed up and just wanted to leave. As an apology, I had to pay in full for the inedible meal. This is what catering looks like today. Sad. We will neither recommend this place nor will we ever set foot in it again.

Very nice staff, great value for money for the food

On a beautiful Saturday, my girlfriend and I ordered waffles with lots of extras. We didn't get any strange looks, even though the order for one waffle was quite large/unusual. The waffles here are delicious, by the way, and highly recommended. 🥰 The waiter, Celo, was a very down-to-earth person, even though it was busy. He was the epitome of calm and had a friendly demeanor. His service was first-class. The next day, he recognized us immediately and greeted us warmly with a smile. He came over immediately, took our order, and asked how we were. We felt very welcome and comfortable here. We'd love to come back!

We visited the restaurant with a senior citizens' group from the Betzdorf Senior Citizens' Protection Association. The food was excellent. The service was excellent and very friendly. A special thank you to Ms. Krekel for her tremendous support in planning this wonderful day. The Board of the Solidar Senior Citizens' Protection Association Betzdorf

Overall, everything seemed very professional. From the restaurant's great ambiance to the prompt and friendly service. The only criticism is that the schnitzel was unfortunately tough.

The food was delicious, but the music was too loud.

We were only there to eat waffles, but we were very satisfied.

Dear Ms. Kreckel, we were guests at your Steigalm with a group. We would like to sincerely thank you and your team for the friendly welcome, the delicious food, and the excellent service. The group felt very comfortable. Best regards, Ingrid Frey

Everything in the restaurant was excellent! The food was prepared quickly and the staff was friendly and attentive!

Very nice staff, always helpful, always happy to come back

The rooms were quite good in terms of size and condition. There was also a sauna, which was equally good. The gym there is small but nice. We had problems with the reception because a voucher was initially not accepted, and we almost had to pay twice. Additionally, despite breakfast, we were charged for coffee, which, according to another employee, shouldn't have happened. We made no secret of this and considered the money we paid to the accommodation as a tip. The surrounding area is beautiful for exploring nature.

We ate there and it was very good - very friendly staff and rather reasonable prices

Great atmosphere, great service, everything was excellent, we'll be back. During peak times, it's best to make a reservation.

Everyone is friendly, everything is clean. You can go there

das restaurant ist optisch sehr schön gemacht. hier fühlten wir uns sofort wilkommen. das personal ist überdurchschnittlich motiviert, freundlich und sehr aufmerksam. ich habe nur drei von fünf sternen vergeben. der grund hierin liegt leider daran, das die speisen (wir hatten spaghetti mit olivenoil und mehrere westerwälder champignonrahmschnitzel mit pommes frites) welche alle leider mit viel zu viel pannade umgeben waren. des weiteren war das gesamte geschmackserlebnis leider nur neutral und geschmacklos. unter anderem hätten wir uns auf dem teller eine winzige salatgarnitur oder etwas gemüse vorgestellt. schnitzel, sauce und pommes das sah einfach lieblos aus. wir können das essen nicht weiterempfehlen. schade für eine optisch so schöne location.

We had a very nice short vacation in the Steigalm. Dana's welcome was very warm, the room was quiet, and a delicious breakfast the next morning rounded off our stay

Rating restaurant We had a wonderful day in the Steigalm for our son's communion. The lunch (Sunday menu) was excellent. The portions are very large and very attractively prepared. The game goulash in particular was extremely good. In the afternoon we were able to eat the cake we had brought with us there. Absolutely great service. We pay a plate fee and get coffee in pots. The staff was incredibly attentive and checked several times to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. The cake was cut for us and everything was re-set. Special thanks to Ms. Krekel for the great organization and the service staff on site, which gave us a wonderful day. Absolute recommendation!

Cozy and friendly waitresses. Food partly good. Unfortunately sauces come from the package. Were there for dinner on Easter Sunday. On days like this, I realize that the food has to be prepared. But the guests still pay money for it. Some of the food was lukewarm (potato gratin, vegetables), but the highlight was the dessert. A strawberry salad with vanilla ice cream for 9 euros consisting of: 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream from the pack and 2 quartered strawberries. I found that really disappointing.

Nothing is missing, there is something for every taste, the rooms are very clean and spacious👍

Very nice, rustic and friendly restaurant where you are welcomed at the entrance. Located right next to a beautiful, clean and large playground 👍

We had a birthday party here with 50 people. The location was well prepared, the DJ Steffen was in a class of his own (sings wonderful songs himself) and the food (buffet with grill) was excellent. The team from the hotel to the service staff at the celebration were very friendly and attentive. Last but not least, our special thanks go to Ms. Kreckel for the great organization. If you want to celebrate well, you should book here. We'll be back!!

One of the best hotels I have visited in this category! Much more on offer than usual. The Steigalm offers well-kept rooms, an excellent breakfast and great service. Friendliness everywhere - like arriving at home. Perfectly located for hikes and with wonderful views. After a day of business it feels like a vacation.

Delicious food!! Nice service!! Good beer...that's how it has to be...

A very nice hotel, modern and very clean

Thank you, we'll eat and drink well.

Always worth a visit for both business and private purposes. The hotel: Always a very friendly welcome from Dana and her colleagues. The room simply has to be experienced to be believed. Cleanliness 100 points! To the restaurant: Always worth a visit. From events to conferences, everything is possible here. Food is good, but sometimes there is too much to drink... Negative events at the Steig-Alm? What is the final round? Why can't I be there more often...

We were here for dinner. We enjoyed it very much. We would be happy to come back 😊

Great atmosphere, great food and we were treated very kindly by the STEIGALM team. We would be happy to come back 😃 Best regards

A beautiful place for a break from everyday life. Beautiful rooms, super friendly staff, delicious food

I can only recommend the Steigalm to everyone. The ambience is impressive. The restaurant offers something for everyone, at good prices. The rooms of the hotel are very nicely decorated. Modern and in the style of an alpine pasture.

Great food, rump steak highly recommended. Every cooking level is perfect. Service is super nice, relaxed and serious. Prices are very, very cheap compared to the quality. Load class.

I was only here to eat so I can't comment on the rooms. I found the food and service very good and the location is unbeatable.

Unfortunately, schnitzel is not the real deal. We had 3 in our group. All were tough and not really chewy. The best schnitzels are made from pork salmon. The sauce wasn't something that would blow you away either. Very unfortunate

Unfortunately, cartilage tends to be in the schnitzel, and this can happen if you ask. This cannot and must not happen to people in the schnitzel. Then it wasn't a schnitzel.

Review only for the restaurant! Went there for dinner at 2 p.m. after a walk! Vespers normally start at 2 p.m., but the nice waiter let us order from the menu! The chicken was very tasty and the fries were also extremely crispy!!!!! Only the schnitzel with mushrooms wasn't that tasty! Meat tasted a bit sour, but we'll come back anyway because that was definitely the exception! Ambience very nice and cozy! Enough parking spaces!

Quiet location, parking in front of the door, great rooms, everything spotlessly clean and tidy! A solid 5 stars!

Super nice restaurant, very polite staff, and excellent service. We'd love to come back.

A lovely, small hotel with great rooms. It's very quiet. The hotel restaurant is rustic and serves good, home-style cooking. The sauna area is small but very nice and quiet. Excellent service and staff! Excellent value for money. We'd be happy to come back.

Simply great... from the very friendly service at reception to the evening entertainment. Very good food and, unfortunately, too much to drink :)... I'd be happy to come back... see you soon...

Beautifully situated with plenty of opportunities for hiking, biking, exploring, and relaxing. Very nice, even for a short break.

We simply enjoy being here and we attend the event regularly. A place to feel at home... Keep it up... Greetings Jochen and Nicole

Service was sometimes very chaotic. The wrong drinks and wrong food come to the table. The prices are very excessive for what you want to represent

Very tasty food and great service. Very attentive and accommodating. However the prices were a bit expensive. Nevertheless, it was a nice evening.

Simply perfect for working in the conference room as well as relaxing

We like to stop here after a visit to the wildlife park, but also just for a meal. In the afternoon/early evening a small menu with waffles and some hearty dishes is offered, and from 5:30 p.m. there is a "large menu". There are theme evenings a few days a week. We have never been disappointed in terms of quality, either with the food or the service.

Good home cooking with normal / slightly higher prices and a nice rustic atmosphere in a beautiful location in the wildlife park. Service very friendly and accommodating.

Nice location, food very tasty. A little too expensive 😉

Upscale Alpine gastronomy, with a beautiful hotel also run in Alpine style. Friendly, helpful and open staff. Gastronomy fully meets expectations. Hotel also has a small spa area and an almost perfect breakfast. I would love to come back.

Nice hotel and great restaurant next door. Always my pleasure.

The hotel is very clean and the staff is ultimately friendly. Clear recommendation!

Less than 50 kilometers from where we live, we could spend a great evening here with an overnight stay. Rooms are tip top! Sauna + relaxation room are separate, but everything is possible and is completely sufficient. The highlight is the restaurant, nice atmosphere, dealing with guests is very good. Food is delicious. What more could you want?

The hotel is right next to the wildlife park and is super tidy. The breakfast is very varied and, if desired, an egg can be served, which is freshly prepared.

The food was very tasty, we had onion roast roast, which I can only recommend, I would also have liked to have had the Kaiserschmarrn for dessert, but I think 1 euro extra for the rum raisins in addition to the price for the Kaiserschmarn (10 euros per portion) is too expensive, but As I said, the food was very tasty.

Located directly at the wildlife park - ideal for holidaymakers in the hotel.

You have to say that the waitress (Laura) was very friendly. The food and atmosphere were also very good.

Always worth a detour. Whether after a hike, a day in the wildlife park, an event or a birthday party. The food is absolutely delicious and the service staff are super friendly. Highly recommended.

After a visit to the zoo, we wanted to have something to eat with our two daughters and their godfather. After a rather unfriendly initial contact with a service person who reluctantly offered us a table But then we were suddenly clearly prevented from taking a seat. After another long wait, the service management came to us and told us to please come back in 10 minutes because the table had to be cleared first (there were three glasses there). Unfortunately, you didn't get the impression that you were welcome, which you could tell from the body language. It's a shame, but a neighboring innkeeper was able to be happy about his sales on our part. Even though we visit the zoo regularly, we will unfortunately not visit again.

The grill plate should be renamed children's plates. From the age of 12 onwards you no longer need to cut a sausage so that it resembles an octopus ("magic sausage"). To ask for 29 euros for this borders on insulting. Unfortunately, Corona has changed a lot.

The restaurant is the last shop. The staff is unfriendly and has no manners. We were left standing in the entrance by an employee. After 5 minutes another employee came and told us to come back in 10 minutes. Apparently there were no tables available. The store wasn't even half full. Never again !

A steak with some herb butter, fries and almost €30 should come with a side salad.

We were with a group of 23 people. over the weekend at the Steig-Alm Resort and I have to say, everyone was absolutely thrilled From the first telephone contact regarding the booking request to the farewell on the day of departure - every member of staff was very friendly, attentive and accommodating! The rooms are tastefully decorated and actually very clean! The wait staff in the restaurant was absolutely attentive and tried really hard to serve us well! The ordered menus were served at the same time on beautifully decorated plates. Every dish was tasty and delicious! The breakfast also leaves nothing to be desired! What I particularly liked was the really attentive and yet unobtrusive service of the ladies there! Compliment! Overall, the unanimous opinion of all participants was that a stay at the Steig-Alm Resort was really worth it and that we would definitely come back!

Very stylish rooms, with lots of pretty wooden elements. Very clean. Great location, especially for children with the wildlife park and climbing forest right outside the door.

Very average to rather bad food. It is obviously bought cheaply and sold expensively. There were four of us there and we ordered across the menu. XL grill plate with very tough, dry neck chops and beef steak. Almost rubbery. Chicken okay. Fried potatoes and fries were all cold and not well done. Schnitzel was okay so far. Kaiserschmarren is a we. Finished goods that are warmed up in the micro. Only works with sugar. The service is extremely nice and helpful. Overall, a very average restaurant in which the food is not okay or good enough. It's a shame actually. I think they're making good sales through the zoo and don't need to put in any real effort anymore.

The food is super tasty and I'll be back again

As always, everything was great, service was great, food was great, what more could you want!

Chaos Cafe From the entrance you are sent to a table “back in the middle” and then forgotten After asking several times, we only received a waffle and snack menu - drinks menu? None! So I ordered by chance - when someone finally came to order after calling... At least: coffees came quickly, waffles were also ok and fresh Service hopelessly overwhelmed in the approximately half full outdoor area and empty indoor area We won't come again

We were there as “external” people for breakfast! (You have to reserve a table in advance) The buffet cost €18 per person! Since we were there on a Tuesday, it was very quiet in the breakfast room, more recommended than on the weekend! Everything was plentiful and was always replenished; attentive, friendly service! Very nice atmosphere, quiet, pleasant music in the background! Addendum from 9/18/24 Today we had breakfast there again with the Schlemmerblock! Unfortunately I didn't ask for the current price when making the reservation (unfortunately you can't find it anywhere on the internet 😔) When choosing the buffet, I noticed that some things that were still available last year (e.g. salmon, Camembert, tomatoes with mozzarella, etc.) were no longer visible! 🙃 Some of the rolls were baked rolls, no grain rolls! Apart from fried or scrambled eggs there was nothing warm! Then it was time to pay €24.50 (€6.50 surcharge in one year 🙈) for breakfast - the price-performance ratio also fits Gourmet block no more! We'd rather go somewhere else for breakfast where we can get more for less money! Very unfortunate!!!

Das Hotel kann ich nicht beurteilen; wir haben lediglich im Restaurant gesessen und zwar draußen. Es war ein lauer Sommerabend, dafür ist die Location recht nett. Der Service war mau, die Wartezeit auf Speisen und Getränke beachtlich. Selbst der Liebste, der sehr viel geduldiger und nachsichtiger ist als ich, wurde unruhig. Sein Burger war ok, mein überbackenes Brot auch, allerdings hatte ich bei zwei, drei Bissen einen seltsamen Geschmack im Mund. Und dann drei Tage Übelkeit und Magenbeschwerden.
