Hotel is perfect, food is really nothing

Really what a disapointment. industrial food, without any inspiration. Perhaps OK for incentive groups, for sure not for holidaymakers.

The hotel and bar

Today we played this in the rain. The place is still in very good condition.
But what you have to say is that if you are here as a hotel guest, at 9:00 p.m. you are told, last round and you can stay seated until 9:30 p.m. I think that's definitely only worth one star.

Dear Ms. Friedel, First of all, thank you very much for the good rating and for not letting the rain spoil your fun.
Regarding your criticism:
Of course, this reference to the "last round" only applies to the restaurant, which is then closed after dinner to stock up on breakfast.
We have a great bar that we invite guests to afterwards. Here you can of course end the day in a cozy atmosphere and with a wide range of drinks until after midnight.
In this respect, your criticism may be put into perspective and we will then also get the 5* on your next visit.
Best regards

Could you make more of it; no 4 star service

I was for the 2nd time for 2 days in July to play golf in the Heckenhof resort. Golf courses are well maintained, unfortunately there is often more clover than grass on the fairways, but everything is playable. Rooms unfortunately without air conditioning, terraces and balconies without shading.

Beautiful restaurant terrace with a view of the golf courses, but no service after 10 p.m. despite the best weather. Restaurant with service opens at 18.30; That means after the round of golf you can buy bottled drinks at the bar, but you have to do without luxury like ice or even lemon in a glass, you pay almost 3 € for a 0.2l coke bottle I think the potato salad and the meatball are inferior, even the cake seems to come from the freezer.
Dinner was ok, I found the breakfast good. Service friendly and attentive, at the reception rather abrupt and cold.
Disappointing for 4 stars, bad value for money.

Dear Mr. Linus, thank you for your feedback, even if it is not so good for us.
I am pleased with the positive comments on the golf course and the gastronomy (breakfast and dinner, friendly service).
The clover on the fairways is absolutely in view. Unfortunately, it is not possible to fight him effectively in this weather, but everything is prepared and will be called as soon as the weather permits.
The restrictions in gastronomy were very difficult for us.
We have designed this to be a minimum (Monday-Thursday), otherwise the staff is available from 6:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.!! to disposal.
Unfortunately, the current staffing situation in the catering trade, which you can read about in the media every day, is not leaving Gut Heckenhof unaffected either. In addition, there are always failures due to corona diseases.
Of course, this situation is not nice for the individual guest who is affected.
But with this measure we can at least satisfy the majority of all guests with the full service.
In this respect, we can only ask for your understanding and will of course endeavor to remove these restrictions as soon as possible.
Kind regards
Peter Hilla

Long golf weekend 03.06-06.06.21

Thank you very much for a wonderful, long weekend. Even during Corona we felt "like we were on vacation". Golf courses in great condition. Even if they are not that easy ... "Hitting the fairway" helps to avoid the rough;).
Very friendly staff, especially Nadja in the brasserie, thank you very much.
We will definitely come back and tell many golfers about the Heckenhof.

It is very nice to be able to welcome satisfied guests again after the long closure and I will be happy to pass the praise on to the staff who were able to make your stay so good despite the long break and the very short lead time.
We are already looking forward to your return visit and just bring a few friends with you!

Golf stay from 23.9 - 25.9.2020

Despite the longer dry spell, the course is still relatively playable, even if the fairway is partially uneven (holes). Unfortunately, the semi-rough at the edge is so high that you can't find any balls there! We had been promised weeks beforehand that we would be able to play all three courses; this commitment was no longer valid on site and we had to play yellow / green twice in a row.
The "restaurant" (you sit there like in a better canteen) was also not to be recommended: the dishes at the buffet were mostly cold and the taste was reminiscent of frozen food. In addition, we had some stink bugs in the room, which did not contribute to the feel-good character.
We were already at Gut Heckenhof about 8 years ago and were thrilled then, this time very disappointed!

Dear Ms. Sieglinde, thank you very much for your rating, even if it is not as positive this time as we would like it to be.
On the positive side, despite the major drought problems, you found the place acceptable and ok. The greens are currently in top condition, which is particularly appreciated by many golfers.
The semi-rough is mowed to 8 cm, you probably meant the rough 2 mower widths by the high grass.
When you were visiting, the hotel was completely occupied, including groups, plus golf tournaments, etc.
It is often not possible to move the places to be played individually. The reception or the VA office are therefore actually not authorized to make appropriate commitments, because that only leads to disappointment. I would like to apologize for this and we will discuss this with the employees again.
In the restaurant, you obviously sat in the brasserie, which is actually not intended for individual guests in the evening. There are also two nicely equipped restaurant rooms. Due to "Corona" and the enforced distance regulations, we are forced to distribute the guests to the 3 rooms in such a way that the distance regulations are taken into account. This requires a certain allocation of the places due to the existing groups. Sorry that you ended up in the brasserie, it was really not cozy with the hustle and bustle.
Your judgment on the food is in clear contradiction to the very positive feedback about our buffet concept, which has been offered very successfully for a year. Frozen food is not represented there and all warm dishes are inevitably on hot plates and also under heat lamps from above.
There were no "stink bugs" in the rooms. According to the room service, it was completely harmless bugs. All rooms were vacuumed immediately after notification, which unfortunately does not rule out a renewed infestation with the window open. That is not nice, but there are also small "side effects" of nature at Gut Heckenhof.
I am sincerely sorry that this time your stay was clouded by the circumstances described, which I can understand very well and which I naturally regret.
You can be assured that our team makes every effort to ensure that our guests have a pleasant and relaxing stay. Since you have now been with us twice, you may have the opportunity to experience: "Experience all good things the third time!"
We would be delighted if you gave Gut Heckenhof this chance!
All the best and best regards

Condition of the place is bad - reception service poor

I was there for the first time yesterday (red / yellow course).
The course is in a very bad condition, the fairways are very bumpy, very uneven with potholes and tufts of grass.
It looks just as bad around the greens - there are plenty of bald spots in the foregreens. Then the greens were aerated and sanded - not a word of it when registering at the reception - that is bad because a teammate had registered an EDS round. No comment from the receptionist, it is impossible to leave this unmentioned.

Dear Mr. Fun, thank you for your rating, even if it is not as you would expect.
Unfortunately, you have almost caught the worst time.
The greens were aerated last week and that dragged on because of the rain. Information about this is on the homepage and is available at reception.

Even so, reception should definitely have informed you of this. That is discussed immediately.
I would like to apologize to you for this.

The fairways and foregreens have unfortunately been suffering from the drought for the third year now. For the pre-greens there is a special program for processing and reseeding, which starts today.
I hope that you can give Gut Heckenhof another channel and then get rid of better criticism.

System with potential

For many years I have played this system in private and league games every now and then. I've also been to the hotel before. The layout of the courses and the terrain - not too flat and not really hilly - are perfect for a golf course. The view from the clubhouse terrace on the course is just great. The rooms are nice and modern. The paperwork is a bit cumbersome. For a small tournament with friends, a contract with 7 or 8 pages must first be written. Everything is listed. Who plays with whom when and when you get the cards, when you come back to the clubhouse and whether and what is eaten and drunk. And please don't change anything - it's all too complicated and then again requires a lot of work. The staff is nice - but unfortunately they are not allowed to make much decisions and always have to make a lot of calls.
Big and very, very nice and slow greens. The fairways are like this and then like this. Pretty bumpy everything, potholes everywhere - then lots of tufts of grass stop. And the clover blooms so beautifully! Especially on the edge in the semi so high that you can lose balls there. Not nice. It is just a place in the province.
Clubhouse large and modern. Many rooms and great terraces. There is also a nice bar. I don't really want to say much about food. Ready meals and defrosted industrial cakes at prices as if they were cooked yourself. In the evening unfortunately only buffet - also a lot of freezer and convenience. Booking with a hotel is all OK - but much too expensive as a day guest. No thanks. Breakfast is great. With juice and sparkling wine and fresh rolls and lots of choice.
Conclusion: The focus here is not on golf. In the right hands and with the necessary passion, it can become a pearl.

Dear guest (Rhenish Italians), thank you very much for your detailed evaluation. Your feedback is really a good help as it is fair and factual and highlights both the positive and negative points.
With the contractual formalities we try to convey the highest degree of clarity between "client and contractor. They are standardized and must also be geared towards large contracts with a multitude of special features, etc. Your points on place maintenance are communicated immediately to greenkeeping. With This is one thing for clovers: firstly, hardly any antidotes are allowed, and secondly, to combat very special weather conditions in order to use the measures effectively.
It is a pity that you did not like the buffet, it has been particularly praised since its introduction.
As we have 95% hotel guests, it is important to point out that the price-performance ratio is adequate.
The Corona requirements do not make it easy for restaurants and the whole company, but the lifeblood of all employees is there and in normal times we also create a perception of our guests that goes more to the "pearl".
Thanks again with best wishes for a great golf season!

Service

We had 5pers. Booked a 3 day golf arrangement, which we liked in (almost) all points. Unfortunately there was an unpleasant criticism that overshadowed the positive overall impression.
It should be self-explanatory that you have to stick to certain specifications (distance / mask requirement etc.) in the currently not easy Corona time. But as a guest in the patio and serving area, being arrogant and service-minded by arrogant service personnel is completely inappropriate.
If hygiene is so important for these reasons, regular room maintenance should also take place, unfortunately I had to dispose of the underwear worn by the predecessor!
At the moment, the gastronomy is always happy to welcome their guests again, unfortunately we lacked that feeling. We still spent nice sunny days on a well-kept golf course!

Dear Mr. Pit 24, Thank you for your feedback and the positive points of your stay at Gut Heckenhof.
We are sorry that your good impression was clouded by the two negative points and we will put the topic "customer friendliness" on the agenda in our next team meeting for the service staff.
Unfortunately, it is often not easy for employees in these times to enforce the necessary rules among our guests. While most guests stick to the guidelines, there are always freaks out, which then make it really difficult for the employees to assert themselves. Then the nerves can be bare.
Reg. I asked our housekeeping about the topic of housekeeping, who found no disposed clothes in the waste. Or was it not the rooms but the general changing room? Of course, it can happen that something remains and can only be discovered and disposed of during daily cleaning the next day.
Still a "sorry" for the two points.
But I am pleased that Gut Heckenhof stuck with you as "beautiful and sunny days on a well-tended golf course"!
Kind regards

A very nice facility for green fee players

The 27 hole golf course is very nicely cut and interesting for all skill levels. The surrounding landscape is very beautiful. In my opinion, the place has been getting better every year in recent years. Price - performance is very good. For me, the bar or lounge is also an absolute highlight. Bar and reception staff very friendly and competent. Definitely always worth a green fee for me. A tip: Wednesdays men's golf - super organized by the mens captain.

Praise for hotel

Right away:
I have never played this course and therefore can not rate.

But I would really like to praise the hotel for the courage to act against the bread packers.
What you see there often makes your hair stand on end!!! As whole families are supplied for 2 days.

If all guests did that, then that would be the turnover of a snack stall.
1.90 euros is something of fair. Butcher Meier demands more!
Hello Heckenhof - Now I have to come with you on a trip to the north with you.

Nice golf resort... but

Was from 13.-15. Sept. 2019 with my three sons and a few golf friends in the golf resort Heckenhof. We played all three places. The golf courses are in good condition, especially excellent greens, at this time of the year. The Semirough is too high for me with 20 cm of hanging grass. But it is a matter of taste. Nevertheless, you lose for the semi-rough area unusually many balls, with actually unnecessary search times. The guesthouses, rooms and restaurant are good and meet the expected standard.

Not at all fit the reception, at the same time golf secretariat, to the otherwise positive overall impression.

Wanted to pick up my golf cart before the round. There I learned from a gentleman in the secretariat, that this would not go, only 1/2 hour before my TeeTime. Also my objection, but I still need to pick up my bag in the guest house and loaded, I would also like to bring in the DR, putt something and chippen met with deaf ears. Nothing to do. No chance! Apart from such a strange regulation, was then the following note from the gentlemen "Then take a look in our terms and conditions, as they can read that" completely beside the track. The person who has set up this 1/2 hour rule, one may indeed forgive that with "ignorance of the usual practices", but a guest to refer to a justified objection to the terms and conditions, is indeed a NoGo and arrogance not to outbid.
Too bad an otherwise well run house, no more emphasis on quality in the reception area and golf secretariat. Should not this area be a figurehead?
By the way, it should be mentioned that if you take a roll from breakfast on the round, it is money to pay. But everyone may develop their own opinion.

Because of the unsurpassable arrogance in the secretariat only two points

For us, Gut Heckenhof never again

Dear Mr. Kessler, First of all many thanks for the positive points that you experienced during your stay at Gut Heckenhof.
Golf course, room, restaurant rated as good, that are the important parameters of a golf short break.
To the square: the Semirough is usually mowed to 8 cm. The Greenkeepers are currently working hard with daily wild boar damage, possibly the Semirough has stayed there for a week. But that's the exception, 8cm the rule.
I apologize for the dissatisfaction at the reception. The lead time for the carts we have immediately increased to 1 hour. The employee encountered has his place on 01.10. October terminated.
That should not really be a reason for the way you've experienced it. I can assure you that the other employees are extremely friendly and endeavored and that we have explicitly anchored this point in the company philosophy that every employee accepts and signs at the beginning of his activity at Gut Heckenhof.
Finally a word on the topic "bread for the round of golf"
We perceive this as a service that we offer to our guests. To extend the breakfast to a packed lunch, as we have often experienced, where rolls and fruit secretly disappear in your purse, we do not find fair. A roll occupied by desire and mood by the guest with napkin and bag for € 1.90, however, as good and cheap.
It would be nice if you think again about a visit to Gut Heckenhof.
You are definitely welcome.
With best regards

Completely satisfied

If you are looking for unnecessary luxury or attach importance to monetary busybodies, this is probably wrong.
But if you are looking for pleasant rounds of golf together with a short break, you will find everything that makes for a perfect golf day in the Heckenhof.
We (two couples) were on Corpus Christi for a 2-day short break on the complex. The different rooms are spread over several detached houses and offer everything you expect as a "normal" guest. The standard is good and absolutely up to date. We played the three existing courses on two days in different combinations. All blend beautifully into the landscape and often offers a magnificent view of the valley. Even though there was a lot going on in the afternoon, nowhere did the game operations falter. There are a total of the landscape typical and varied fairways with some wide tracks, but laterally with many trees that were allowed to donate the balls often shade...
The buffet was delicious on both evenings and varied.
Above all, the staff at the counter, kitchen service and also at the bar were extremely friendly and with an infectious good mood. It certainly was not our last visit...

Good 27 holes in a quiet environment

Last played on 1.5.2019. The 27-hole course plus 6-hole short course with attached hotel business is a bit jwD near Bonn in the Rhein-Sieg-Kreis / Oberbergischer Kreis in absolute peace and nature. Only the electricity pylons on the red course (lanes 1-3) disturb the landscape a bit. In order to reach the driving range and the first tee of the red course as well as the short course, one has to cross a larger road that divides the terrain. The three 9-hole loops are structured quite differently. In some cases there are also some height differences / inclinations / doglegs and water hazards to play. A highlight (but rather insurmountable for beginners) is the dubbing of a biotope on the yellow 9. Otherwise, you should avoid the rough and keep one or the other limit in mind. Basically, but should also cope because of the mostly open fairways and high HC. The condition was just fine, although the one or the other fairway was not optimal. Overall, the game mode is rather loose and usually you always get a start time on one of the three loops. However, even flights with high HC can be ahead of you. The reception in the secretariat is friendly and professional. You get a personalized scorecard. You can save 20% on the green fee if you buy a guest service card for a one-time fee of 5 € and pay with it. At the same time you can use the map for exit from the parking lot and I think also for range balls. As a rule, the restaurant offers good food and you can sit in the sun in front of the modern clubhouse on the terrace. If you take the path or are close by, I can definitely recommend a round, as long as you do not expect a meadow.

Dear Mr. Reiner, thank you very much for your rating, which is overwhelmingly positive. It is motivation and confirmation for the team at the same time. Let me make a brief note about the place condition.
You have the place on 01.05. recorded. Especially at fairways and teeing off, we suffered a lot from the extreme dry damages of the last year and had hardly any growth weather.
Today, there is already a completely different picture. The fairways present themselves in lush green and 12 days ago we have successfully completed the early-year certification of the greens.
One can almost speak of a "precious meadow".
Try it again with the guest service card even at very reasonable green fees.
Yours sincerely

Anlage super, service could be improved

The hotel is clean and well maintained. The sauna area is great. Here it is surprising that this is so little used. However, it can be schonmal that a craftsman runs through the area. That's a bit strange.

The restaurant and menu are outstanding.
Only the service is in need of improvement. Unfortunately, it takes a long time to order again after the first order. Often there is no service staff nearby.

The courses are very nice and suitable for all handicap classes. The greens are in good condition and quite demanding. € 2.70 for a load of balls on the range but is overpriced.
The staff in the secretariat are very nice and flexible.

Dear Mr. Thomas P., many thanks for your very good but also critical evaluation of your stay at Gut Heckenhof.
The areas that are essential for a golf holiday have been described positively. For the team this is both motivation and aspiration. Your criticism of the service, which at the beginning of the season actually not 100% running around, we assume. New employees, the difficulty of getting skilled workers at all, as well as the start of the season, still show a clear need for improvement, but they are working at full speed. We are sure that this shortcoming you have identified can soon be eradicated.
A short note on the Rangebällen: usually 20-25 balls per basket spent, with us 35th So we should be in the balls in the normal price.
I would be happy to welcome you soon to Gut Heckenhof.

Underground guest service

In advance: the complex itself (hotel, restaurant, food, golf course) is basically okay. Otherwise, the guest (here internally called "user") is not king but only "payer". We were there with 24 men's golfers for 4 days and have played golf except for considerable sales in the catering. The staff is always friendly and helpful, but the management with rules covered the guest (users) are unbelievable. I can not and do not want to enumerate the many ridiculous little things here, but as a frequent traveler I can only say: I have never experienced such an inflexibility worldwide...! The manager is rarely there and was therefore not to speak!
The condition of the golf course left much to be desired. That one has no green fairways after a hot, dry summer is indeed to apologize. But you could water the greens and tees. The deductions were mostly made of brown earth, around the greens you would have to mark large parts as a floor in repair. The greens themselves were not mowed, slow and unfaithful... On inquiry you received the information, the course care would be outsourced..., which I do not care in doubt as a "user".
On the way home I did some research: the owner lives in Kitzbühel and controls the company well from a distance, on the website there is a "hotel, house, place and play order" over 5 DIN A4 pages what one may and in which cases you will be deprived of the usage permit. Everyone can think of their part.
Conclusion: none of the 24 men's golfers will visit this resort in the next 20 years. There are hundreds of other places to welcome guests and provide service and where to spend my money.

For the "preliminary remarks" I thank you very much, they actually reflect what is transmitted in the vast majority of all reviews by our guests.
Our team gets along very well with the guests.
In this case, however, I got massive complaints every night. The gentlemen had set their mind after the dinner in the restaurant "POKERNÄCHTE" to organize and were not to move against 0: 30-1: 00 as alone left guests to leave the house. The service forces were verbally abused and aggressively treated on all evenings. One requested in the middle of the night to bring in the managing director / manager, who was then supposed to deliver a speech with 24 drunken men.
We would have gladly waived these guests!!
The manager, who also owns the plant, has set up a very good team with an excellent local operations manager and is in fact not involved in day-to-day operations. That happens more often. The manager had taken a short break (the first days off in the season) at the time in question and was therefore unable to intervene with the men.
After 3 months without significant rainfall and constant temperatures around 30 degrees the place has indeed suffered a lot. The Greekeeper have with great dedication (daily hand irrigation from 4:30 in the morning) prevented the worst and received the greens in a confirmed by many guests very good condition.
Conclusion: The best one looks at the many very good reviews of the other guests!!!

A very nice little golf hotel in the Westerwald. Super nice reception. But overall - perhaps because I just came from Ireland with that insane hospitality - that terrible inflexible regulation. We were there in the course of an event and had our card in the restaurant. I just wanted the schnitzel without the side dishes listed. You actually wanted 2.50 € extra, because this would be a special request. Incredible! The Proshop a bit unfavorable in the basement in a "very" small corner. That should be optimized. The rooms in the house 5 were nicely furnished. The Schlepperei with the luggage was difficult, since no elevator available. I played the P, etching yellow / green. The place is really nice. Super well maintained. The greens a bit slow and in the bunker unfortunately a little bit of sand, so very hard. As already mentioned, probably the hole 9 of yellow is the highlight. It was a great day of golf overall. Here we come back despite the small comments-which perhaps the operator should pick up - certainly.

Nice, that your "great" golf day was not clouded and you could fully enjoy it.
This speaks for your fairness and generosity, but an extra "thank you".
I hope to see you again soon at Gut Heckenhof.

Ordinary places, delicious cuisine.

The bays: "Yellow" Par 37 of the most diverse and interressanteste, unfortunately poorly signposted (often illegible). "Green" par 35 flat, easy to play. "Red" Par 35 also not particularly exciting. Much operation by group travel. Kitchen, service and organization of golf and hotel operation are quite outstanding.

Super

Great place with friendly staff and a super hotel.
The arrangement with two green fees, a night and Essem is unbeatable.
The course was in very good condition and offers a varied style.
Only the signs is not optimal.

Highly Recommended...

Golf Travel Group in August 2010

Preparation for group tour through the resort was excellent.
Even the golf on the 3 nine hole courses was great fun. Courts were in excellent condition.
Unfortunately, 1 golf day due to heavy rain was (rained all night) deleted. For the loss, there were green fee vouchers.
The Community Dinner was also very good.
The rooms are in a state out other ligands.

Ideal for group travel

Was associated with a 25-member group 4 days here. 3 x 9 holes, ideal to combine and perfect for all players of the requirements here.
Very fair course - good for walking.
Hotel and service well to golfers. Absolute peace.

Stabelford 18 hole PGA Tournament

The facility is well maintained and quite clearly.
The lady at the desk was very friendly and knowledgeable. (Also, the weather was still good then everything looks kind of anyway). I can recommend the facility to anyone golfers.

Session 1a

Over the last weekend I was invited by my company in a meeting there.
Over the years I've seen a lot of meetings and mostly these are so similar in city hotels instead.
On the Hedgerow came almost on holiday feeling. As the previous speaker has said, "beautifully located in the countryside." Just great time to be away from all the stress.
In the evening I walked a 9 hole round.
Where can you do that? A corporate event is not so sterile, good food throughout the day you want so much, then 2 meters to the hotel and to round comfortable on the golf course!

Great location and great service

We have had very good experiences here. First, the great location falls on in the countryside. Very nice and quiet and fantastic to play golf and relax. The hotel is probably still fairly new, so the rooms were in a pristine condition. From the room, you also have to look directly into Green! The food was good and on the terrace at sunset just beautiful.
The use of the wellness area was included and also the view is the absolute highlight. Playing golf, we have only recently begun and 3x 9 hole and the whole exercise possibilities of Golf: has it all. Way, is situated in a beautifully landscaped park and green.
Well what can I say except that we probably want to go back.
