Escape to Paradise: Erzgebirge Uncovered at Berghotel Drei Bruder Hohe! – A Review with a Soul (and Maybe a Few Too Many Cappuccinos)
First things first: Accessibility. Now, I'm not reliant on a wheelchair, but I always look out for folks who are. Berghotel Drei Bruder Hohe! seems pretty good. They mention facilities for disabled guests which is always a promising start. Elevator? Yes! That's crucial. I'd love to see more specific info about room accessibility and ramps, but hey, baby steps! I'd definitely reach out to the hotel before booking if accessibility is a primary concern – they seem helpful, which leads me to the "Services and Conveniences" category!
Let's talk "Services and Conveniences"! Oh. My. Goodness. This place has it all. Concierge? Check. 24-hour front desk? Check. Daily housekeeping? Double-check, and thank goodness. Because let's be honest, sometimes I make a mess worthy of a small natural disaster. Dry cleaning, ironing service, laundry service… They're basically offering to make me a better version of myself. Amazing! There's even a convenience store… which is dangerous, because I have zero self-control around snacks. Cash withdrawal? Yes! Because I'm old school and like to have some moolah in my pocket. Also, they have Facilities for disabled guests, Food delivery, perfect for when, you're exhausted after a long day of hiking and just want to snuggle in bed in front of the telly. Speaking of which, let's touch upon "Available in all rooms".
Now, for the good stuff: Wi-Fi! And FREE Wi-Fi in all rooms! Hallelujah! (This category doesn't seem to be touched on) Because let's be honest, the internet is a lifeline. Internet [LAN]? Nice for the techies. Internet services? Probably covered by the Wi-Fi. But it's all available which is so great.
Moving on to the stuff that makes you feel fancy: Dining, drinking, and snacking. Okay, this is where things get interesting. They have Multiple restaurants, Cafes, Poolside bar, Snack bar, Room service [24-hour]! You can tell I'm drooling over the possibilities. They offer Breakfast in room and Breakfast takeaway service, which are great for lazy mornings. I love a good Buffet in restaurant, but I'm also intrigued by the A la carte in restaurant and the mention of Asian cuisine in restaurant. I'm a sucker for Vegetarian restaurant. Happy hour? I should think so. Also, I bet the Bottle of water they give you on arrival is amazing after a long journey.
Oh, the Activities (and Relaxation!) – This is the heart of their appeal, isn't it? Forget city life, you will want to have a spa day! The Pool with view, Sauna, Spa, Steamroom, Swimming pool, Swimming pool [outdoor] are just begging to be enjoyed. And there is the Gym/fitness, Fitness center, but who wants to work out and go to all that trouble when you've got a Massage, Body scrub, Body wrap, Foot bath, Spa/sauna?! The other activities include: Things to do.
Cleanliness and Safety (because, well, you know). This is important, especially these days. Anti-viral cleaning products? Daily disinfection in common areas? Rooms sanitized between stays? Sounds like they're taking things seriously. Staff trained in safety protocol? Good. Hand sanitizer? Essential. Physical distancing of at least 1 meter? Makes sense. I mean, health and safety are paramount. For the Kids: The kids are taken care of, with Babysitting service, Family/child friendly, Kids facilities, and a Kids meal. Perfect for a family getaway!
Things That Make a Room a Home (or at Least a Comfortable Crash Pad): Let’s get into the nitty-gritty of the provided stuff: Air conditioning? Check. Blackout curtains? YES! (Sleep is precious.) Bathrobes, Bathtub, Bathrooms, Bathroom phone? Luxury! Coffee/tea maker is essential for a caffeine addict like myself, and Refrigerator? Utterly practical. In-room safe box? A safe place to keep your treasure! Extra nice: Interconnecting room(s) available. You can also enjoy Additional toilet, Carpeting, Closet, Complimentary tea, Daily housekeeping, Desk, Extra long bed, Free bottled water, Hair dryer, High floor, Ironing facilities, Laptop workspace, Linens, Mini bar, Mirror, Non-smoking, On-demand movies, Private bathroom, Reading light, Safety/security feature, Satellite/cable channels, Scale, Seating area, Separate shower/bathtub, Shower, Slippers, Smoke detector, Socket near the bed, Sofa, Soundproofing, Telephone, Toiletries, Towels, Umbrella, Visual alarm, Wake-up service, Wi-Fi [free], Window that opens.
The Quirks (Because Every Hotel Has Them!): I'm dying to know more about the "Shrine." Is it a kitschy tourist trap? A place of genuine spiritual contemplation? A blend of both? And what in the world is a "Proposal spot?" Romantic, I hope!
Getting Around They provide Airport transfer, Bicycle parking, Car park [free of charge], Car park [on-site], Car power charging station, Taxi service, Valet parking. Very convenient!

Durban Manor: Your Dream South African Getaway Awaits!
Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because we're about to dive headfirst into the glorious, messy, and potentially schnapps-fueled world of the Berghotel Drei Bruder Hohe, nestled in the Erzgebirge mountains of Germany. This isn't your perfectly curated Instagram feed; this is real travel, warts and all. Prepare for rambles, opinions, and the occasional existential crisis sparked by a particularly potent German beer.
Day 1: Arrival, Altitude, and a Whole Lot of "Woah"
- 14:00 - Arrive at Dresden Airport (DRS). Okay, first hurdle: navigating the Dresden airport. It's…quaint. Let's just say that. I swear, I saw a pigeon nonchalantly strolling through security at one point. No judgment, little feathered friend, I understand the urge. After a mildly stressful baggage carousel experience (is that actually my suitcase?), we're off!
- 15:00 - Rent a Car (and Pray). Driving in Germany. Beautiful roads, terrifying speed limits. My co-pilot, Sarah, is chanting "Relax" like a mantra. I'm pretty sure it's not working. The rental agency lady, bless her heart, had this look like she sees this every day – another tourist about to mangle a perfectly good VW. Wish me luck!
- 16:00 - The Erzgebirge Ascent! The drive to the hotel is stunning. Seriously, the views – rolling hills, forests that look like they belong in a fairytale, tiny villages clinging to the slopes. It's breathtaking, and I'm constantly pulling over to snap photos because, dammit, I need to capture this beauty! The altitude change, though… I'm getting that weird ear-popping sensation like I'm about to take off in an airplane.
- 17:30 - Check-in at Berghotel Drei Bruder Hohe. The hotel itself is… well, it’s got character. Let's say that. Think: cozy, old-world charm mixed with a slightly bemused air. The receptionist, a woman named Helga with a steely gaze and a kind smile, hands us our room key with a look that says, "Good luck making it through the night." Room's decent - a bit dated, sure, but the view from the balcony? Unbelievable. The air is crisp, the silence is almost palpable.
- 18:30 - Unpack (or Attempt To). Okay, this is where things get real. My suitcase, as always, exploded like a fashion grenade. Seriously, how do I have so much stuff? I swear, I packed for every possible weather event known to mankind. Sarah, bless her heart, is already halfway through organizing her meticulously packed bag. I, on the other hand, am drowning in a sea of clothes.
- 19:30 - Dinner at the Hotel Restaurant. First impressions: heavy on the meat, friendly staff, and portions that make the average American gasp. I opted for the Schweinebraten (roast pork), and it was… well, let's just say my arteries are now contemplating a career change. The beer, however, was perfection. Cold, crisp, and wonderfully, wonderfully German. I had two. Maybe three. Don't judge.
- 21:00 - Balcony Stargazing (and Deep Thoughts). After dinner, steps out on to the balcony, wrapped myself in a blanket. The sky is a canvas of a million stars, far brighter than anything I’ve ever seen. Complete peace and quiet. Just me, the stars, and the faint sound of… cowbells? Yep, cows. Gotta love it. Staring, and suddenly feeling overwhelmed with how small I am and how big the world is. It’s a weird, wonderful, slightly terrifying feeling. This is what I needed. This is why I travel.
Day 2: Hiking That Almost Killed Me, and the Most Amazing Cake Ever.
- 08:00 - Breakfast Buffet (and the Struggle is Real). Okay, the breakfast buffet is a force to be reckoned with. So many types of bread, so much cheese, and enough cold cuts to feed a small army. I, being the sophisticated traveler that I am, went straight for the bacon. Twice. And the sausages? OMFG. Let's just say, I'm starting to understand why people love German food so much.
- 09:00 - Hike Attempt No. 1. The hotel recommended a hike. “Easy,” they said. "Scenic," they said. Lies. All lies. The trail started gently enough, winding through a gorgeous forest. Then it went uphill. And uphill. And then, more uphill. My lungs were burning, my legs were screaming, and I was pretty sure my heart was about to stage an escape attempt. Sarah, being the ridiculously fit person that she is, was practically skipping. I was just trying not to die.
- 11:00 - Hike Attempt No. 1: Abandoned (with Dignity? Maybe). We only made it halfway. I’m not ashamed to admit it. We turned back. The scenery was breathtaking (when I had a spare second to breathe), but the mountain was winning. I swore a vow to invest heavily in a StairMaster when I get back home.
- 12:00 - Lunch at a Local Gasthof (and Cake!). We stumbled back to a little village and found a Gasthof (inn) with a charming, slightly chaotic vibe. The food was simple, hearty, and exactly what I needed after that brutal hike. But the real star of the show? Apfelstrudel. Oh. My. God. The flaky pastry, the warm apple filling, the dusting of powdered sugar… It was heaven on a plate. I’m pretty sure I would have walked to the top of the mountain for another slice.
- 14:00 - Rest and Regroup at the Hotel. Back to the hotel for a nap, lots of water, and a general assessment of the damage to my body. I feel like I've been run over by a bus, but in a good way. The view from the balcony is still amazing, and I'm starting to understand why people come here to find some peace.
- 16:00 - Sauna Time! The hotel has a sauna, and I'm not ashamed to admit that I practically ran to it. Pure, unadulterated bliss. Heat, steam, and the sweet, sweet relief of aching muscles. I emerge feeling like a reborn goddess.
- 19:00 - Another Dinner, Another Mountain of Food. Tonight I experimented – Goulash. It was rich, flavorful, and utterly satisfying. I even managed to avoid the pork, which is a small victory in my book. Beer again, obviously. This time, I made a friend at the bar - a local man named Herr Schmidt, who told me long stories about his life. I understood maybe a third of it, but he was so kind and gentle.
- 21:00 - Stargazing, Part Deux, and Existential Musings. Back on the balcony, wrapped in the blanket, contemplating the vastness of the universe. The air is chilly, and the stars are even brighter tonight. Wondering why the world feels so complicated sometimes, and thinking about how simple life is. A cow moos. I smile.
Day 3: A Little History, and the Long, Sad Drive Home (But With Cake-Induced Memories).
- 09:00 - Breakfast of Champions (aka, More Bacon!). It's my last breakfast at the Drei Bruder Hohe, so I'm going all out. The sausages are calling to me. I’m going to miss this buffet.
- 10:00 - Visit to a Local Mining Museum (and a Deep Dive into History). The Erzgebirge region has a long and fascinating mining history. The museum was packed with fascinating artifacts. I got lost in the stories of miners, the hardships they endured, and the innovations they created. It was a poignant reminder that history is lived, not just read about.
- 12:00 - A Final Lunch, and That Cake. One last meal at the same Gasthof. One more slice of Apfelstrudel. Pure, unadulterated joy. Seriously, I’m tempted to buy a suitcase full of the stuff and smuggle it back home.
- 13:00 - Packing, with Tears (and a Deep Breath). It’s time to leave. Packing up feels harder than unpacking. The whole trip seemed to have flown by. I'm already feeling a little sad. I found peace here. In the mountains, the food, the simplicity. This place has a magic of its own.
- 14:00 - Farewell, Mountains! The Drive to Dresden Begins. The drive back to Dresden is somber. The scenery is still beautiful, but the mood is different. I find myself staring out the window, thinking about how fast time goes. Thinking about how much I'm going to miss this place.
- 16:00 - Return the Rental Car (and a Sigh of Relief). Survived! No dents, no tickets. Achievement unlocked!
- **18:00
