Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into the (potentially) magical world of Am Klostergarten Germany!

First Impressions & Hitting the Ground Running (Or, Trying To)
The promise of a "hidden gem" always gets me. It’s like they’re daring you to find something special. So, arriving at Am Klostergarten… well, it looked promising. Lush greenery peeking out from behind walls, a vague feeling of "secret garden" vibes. Access? Fine. The website claims to be accessible, and for the most part, it seemed to be. Elevators were present, which is HUGE for me because stairs are my enemy… and also if you are going for an old German building, the elevators are likely on the small side but the hotel probably has several floors, so be prepared for some tight squeezes and possibly a lot of walking, it's always a trade off!
Accessibility: A Mixed Bag of Blessings and… Well, Not So Blessings
While there's the promise of facilities for disabled guests on the site, it gets a bit tricky when you start digging. They really need to clarify specifics. Is there a wheelchair accessible room? What about the pool area? The restaurant? Details, people, details! I hate that vague "facilities available" line. It's like saying you might have a winning lottery ticket. You need proof! I mean, good on 'em for trying, but the devil's in the details, and the details are… nebulous.
Internet: Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Everywhere… Hopefully
Okay, this is important: Free Wi-Fi in all rooms?! YES! Thank the travel gods! That's a massive win. I can't survive without internet, let's be real. Then, there's "Internet [LAN]" – is that some ancient relic from the dial-up era? (Kidding…mostly). They also have Wi-Fi in public areas, which is handy for, you know, not hiding in my room like a hermit. Internet services are also included, but more details are needed on how those services are implemented.
Things to Do & Ways to Relax: Let's Get Steamy… (Literally)
Alright, let's get to the good stuff: the spa! The list is impressive, to say the least. Spa/sauna? Hallelujah. Steamroom? Oh, yes, please. Swimming pool with a view? Now we're talking! Pool, also, but the view is the real kicker. A Body scrub and Body wrap? Sounds luxurious. Massage? Absolutely essential for untangling travel knots. Gym/fitness? They have a Fitness center! This is where I go for a work out. Foot bath? Alright, maybe not my thing, but I'm sure someone enjoys it.
My Personal Spa-tastic Experience (Let’s Get REAL)
Okay, I'm going to tell you, let's get into the heart of the matter with the Sauna. This wasn't just any sauna. This was a real sauna. The kind that makes you feel your skin melting off in the best way possible. I spent, like, an hour in there, alternating between sweating like a pig (apologies to all the pigs out there), and then jumping into the… what was it? The cold plunge pool? Whatever. It was freezing! The initial scream made my friends laugh, but the peace that swept over me after? Sublime. The rest of my day was pure bliss after this experience. It was a great moment of relaxation and escape.
Cleanliness and Safety: Is it Germ-Free Paradise?
This is SO important right now. Anti-viral cleaning products? Check. Daily disinfection in common areas? Check. Hygiene certification? (Hopefully…). Rooms sanitized between stays? Good! Staff trained in safety protocol? Please, God, let this be true. They have First aid kit and Hand sanitizer, again, good signs. Individually wrapped food options mean good news. Safe dining setup, plus Sanitized kitchen and tableware items, also good. But this is where I get a little twitchy. They need to prove it. Show me some evidence! In this day in age, you have to prove your commitment.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: Feed Me, Seymour!
Where do I even start? This place is promising with options! Restaurants? Plural! Breakfast [buffet] and Breakfast service itself. Also, the Asian breakfast! Okay, interesting. Asian cuisine in restaurant? Sold. Western breakfast and Western cuisine in restaurant? Standard fare, but good to have. A la carte in restaurant? Always a reliable option. They have a Bar and Poolside bar?! Yes, please. Did I mention Coffee/tea in restaurant and Coffee shop? Essential. The Snack bar and Desserts in restaurant are a plus and the Soup in restaurant and Salad in restaurant are also good.
A la carte in restaurant? Desserts in restaurant? Happy hour? Poolside bar? Sign me up! The variety they’re boasting is impressive. I'll be looking around for any Vegetarian restaurant or at least options. I'll be asking for all of the above in my review.
Services and Conveniences: The Extras That Make a Difference
This is where a hotel really shines (or crumbles). Air conditioning in public area is a must. Concierge? Yes, please! Daily housekeeping? You better believe it! Elevator? (See accessibility note). Facilities for disabled guests (again, NEEDS DETAIL!). Doorman? Classy touch. Laundry service? Thank you, universe. Luggage storage? Essential. Meeting/banquet facilities? Fair enough. Safety deposit boxes? Always a good idea. Terrace? Sounds lovely. Wi-Fi for special events? Good, but should there be "special events" when there's still a pandemic going on?
For the Kids: Family-Friendly or Just Tolerant?
Family/child friendly? Good to know. Babysitting service? Nice if you want to escape the little monsters for an hour (kidding… mostly!). Kids meal? Score.
Available in all rooms means you can make the bed into your own paradise away from the world.
Things I Need To Know MORE About:
- Specifically, what is the deal with the food?
- How is the pool area set up for accessibility?
- What is the vibe of the place? Is it overly formal, or can I wander around in my bathrobe without judgment? (Important question, people.)

Day 1: Arrival & The Unexpected Sausage Odyssey (And Oh God, Were We Hungry)
- 10:00 AM: Arrive at Frankfurt Airport. Ugh, airports. The sheer volume of humanity, the fluorescent lighting, the existential dread of delayed flights… I swear, I saw a woman crying into a giant pretzel. This is already off to a stellar start.
- 11:00 AM: Train to Gelnhausen. (Or at least, that's the plan. Getting on the right train is always a gamble. Pray for us.) I'm already fantasizing about Bratwurst. My stomach is rumbling like a grumpy bear.
- 1:00 PM: Arrive Gelnhausen, find Klostergarten and drop off luggage. Immediately, the first impression hits like a warm hug: half-timbered houses looking like gingerbread fantasies, charming little cobbled streets. I'm already in love.
- 1:30 PM: Search for lunch. And here's where things go delightfully off the rails. We stumble upon Die Wurstbude des Grauens (not its actual name, but it should be). This tiny stand, smelling of pure, unadulterated sausage-y goodness, becomes the hub of our existence. We devour a half-dozen different sausages: fiery Currywurst, smoky Bratwurst, the incredibly creamy Bratwurst. The vendors look at us like we've lost our minds.
- 3:00 PM: Attempt to see the Imperial Palace in Gelnhausen. I say "attempt" because after all that meat, I'm in a semi-comatose state. The palace is impressive ruins. Did I mention I needed to sit down?
- 4:30 PM: Check in to the hotel in Klostergarten.
- 5:00 PM: Wander the Klostergarten gardens. They're actually beautiful. Roses. Peaceful. I needed this. After the sausage fiasco.
- 7:00 PM: Dinner at some traditional Gasthaus. I'm pretty sure I ordered something that sounds remotely close to something like "Schnitzel." Oh god, the portion sizes. I ate half. I think I'll be dreaming of meat.
- 9:00 PM: Crawl into bed, full, and happy. (And possibly smelling slightly of grilled pork.)
Day 2: Monasteries, Medieval Magic, and the Great Beer Blunder
- 9:00 AM: Wake up feeling slightly sausage-y. Breakfast! Hopefully, something not remotely involving a pig.
- 10:00 AM: Visit the actual Klostergarten. It's a monastery. Apparently. This is the main event. They're beautiful. It's a bit overwhelming feeling the ancient history. I feel very small.
- 12:00 PM: Lunch. This time, something vegetarian. Seriously. I need vegetables. Find the most quaint café. I'm still thinking about those sausages, though.
- 1:30 PM: Explore the surrounding areas, cobblestoned streets of Gelnhausen again. Soak in the history. I can feel the ghosts of knights and whatnot.
- 3:00 PM: This is where things get interesting. "Beer Tasting!" I yelled. Turns out, the "tasting" was more like a beer-swilling marathon. We found a local Brauhaus. The server, a woman with biceps the size of my head, kept refilling our steins. I have no idea what we drank, but I do remember the feeling of warmth, the giggling, and trying to speak German. I think I successfully ordered a… potato salad.
- 5:00 PM: (ish) Walk back to the hotel. Some of the group had decided to stay in the Brauhaus. I, however, thought otherwise. I think I sat down on the steps and contemplated the universe.
- 7:00 PM: Dinner at the hotel. I think I ate more.
- 9:00 PM: Sleep. Possibly snoring.
Day 3: Departure and Last-Minute Regrets (and the Promise of More Sausage)
- 9:00 AM: "Breakfast is ready", I'm happy they say it.
- 10:00 AM: Last-minute souvenir shopping. Buy ALL the things. A cuckoo clock. A lot of chocolates. Did I mention more sausage?
- 12:00 PM: A final walk through the town. Savoring the last moments of medieval charm. Starting to feel that classic travel sadness. "I want all the things again!"
- 1:00 PM: Say goodbye to Klostergarten with a hearty "Auf Wiedersehen!".
- 2:00 PM: Train to Frankfurt Airport.
- 4:00 PM: Airport. Waiting area. Dreaming of the next trip back, for the sausage and the medieval vibes.
Post-Trip Report:
- High Point: The Sausage Odyssey (obviously).
- Low Point: The Beer Blunder (the hangover was apocalyptic).
- Unexpected Joy: The kindness of the locals. Even when we were stumbling around in German.
- Would I go back? In a heartbeat. I already miss the smell of grilled meat and the fairytale streets. I'd consider moving there, if I could find a lifetime supply of sausages.
This itinerary is a work in progress. Expect deviations. Expect the unexpected. Embrace the mess. And for God's sake, eat the sausage!
