Gasthof Bräuerei Frohsinn Review

Originally built in 1822, and located near the edge of the Bodensee, within a 5-minute walk west of the town center, this four-story historic hotel contains 13 simple and nostalgically decorated bedrooms, a brewery that chugs out many gallons of both light and dark beer (the brand name is Frohsinn), a popular bowling alley, and a trio of restaurants. The most formal and gourmet conscious of the three is the Fisch Restaurant. Focusing on upscale, gourmet-inspired Continental food, its prices begin at 75F for a fixed-price menu.

Less lofty and less ambitious in their cuisine are Le Bistro and, in the cellar, the Bräukeller. Both restaurants charge from 20F to 48F for rib-sticking main courses that include grilled steaks; calves' liver with bacon; roulades of beef, chicken, or veal layered with herbs and cheese; noodles studded with ham and a cream-flavored cheese sauce; and as much beer from the local brewery as you can handle.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
