BSW-Erlebnishotel Festenburg  

Tucked into the Harz mountains between Clausthal-Zellerfeld and Goslar, about 8 km from Goslar’s city center. A handy base for Robinson Playground Harz, Oker Dam, Harz National Park and the Upper Harz Water Shelves. Nearby cultural stops include the University of Hildesheim, Noah's Ark and St. Godehards Basilica. Family-friendly mountain escape.

Modern mountain-lodge vibe with 64 guestrooms. Rooms feature flat-screen TVs and private bathrooms with rainfall showerheads, hairdryers, safes and complimentary bottled water. Public spaces mix chill and play — a library, arcade/game room, bowling club, ping-pong and a kids' playroom.

Soak in the indoor pool or book a treatment in the full-service spa with a massage room. Sweat in the fitness center, warm up in the sauna, or try mini-golf and the outdoor barbecue area. Ski storage and access to off-site skiing make winter easy; free parking and elevator access add practical comfort. Wake up to crisp mountain mornings.

A business center, conference hall and two meeting rooms handle events and meetings. Express check-in and express check-out keep schedules tight.

On-site restaurant serves local cuisine and a bar/lounge is perfect for winding down with a drink. Expect hearty regional flavors that match the mountain setting.
