Since 25 May 2002 at ULRICHSHOF
What was your funniest or best experience in the last 20 years at ULRICHSHOF?
At the very beginning, I made a mistake with a room number. Instead of going into an empty room, I suddenly barged into a room with a guest. We were both startled for a moment, but I immediately apologised and we had to laugh. Fortunately, the guest didn’t take offence and we were able to resolve the embarrassing situation with humour.
If you had to describe the ULRICHSHOF in three words, what would they be?
Children, laughter, luxury.
Which place in the ULRICHSHOF is a real insider tip for you – and why?
Our laundry room – perhaps inconspicuous to many, but this is where every new day at ULRICHSHOF begins for me.
What has changed the most in the past 20 years – and what has (fortunately) always stayed the same?
A lot has changed – many new buildings have been constructed and the ULRICHSHOF has grown steadily. But fortunately, one thing has always remained the same: the boss and his two sons.
Since 25.12.2000 at ULRICHSHOF
What has been your funniest or best experience at ULRICHSHOF in the last 20 years?
I live in the here and now – for me, the best moment is always when we receive enthusiastic feedback from our guests and there’s a great atmosphere in the team.
If you had to describe the ULRICHSHOF in three words, what would they be?
Friendly, modern, diverse.
Which place in the ULRICHSHOF is a real insider tip for you – and why?
As the grandmother of two little girls, I love our Spiel-KISTE – a paradise for children, especially on rainy days. Here they can run around carefree, jump on the trampoline, climb and just be kids. Exercise is so important!
What has changed the most in the past 20 years – and what has (fortunately) always stayed the same?
The kitchen has developed and modernised enormously. Fortunately, however, the humanity of the management has remained the same – even though the ULRICHSHOF has grown many times over the years.
At ULRICHSHOF since 1 October 1999
What was your funniest or best experience in the last 20 years at ULRICHSHOF?
On New Year’s Eve, I worked the late shift until 11pm. Three regular guest families came to me and spontaneously took me along to watch the fireworks together. Afterwards, we ended the evening in the saloon with cocktails – an unforgettable moment!
Another special experience was when I spent a night at the ULRICHSHOF with my husband and our two daughters. For the first time, I was able to experience everything from the perspective of a guest – a wonderful experience
If you had to describe the ULRICHSHOF in three words, what would they be?
Family – action – relaxation
Which place in the ULRICHSHOF is a real insider tip for you – and why?
The hut by the Waldbach! Here in the midst of nature, accompanied by the gentle lapping of the water, you can leave everyday life behind you, take a deep breath and recharge your batteries. A perfect retreat for quiet moments.
What has changed the most over the past 20 years – and what has (fortunately) remained the same?
Fortunately, the loyalty of the hotel has remained the same – a valuable foundation that characterises the ULRICHSHOF.
However, some things have changed: the site has grown, as has our team and the number of management staff. The ULRICHSHOF is constantly evolving without losing its unique character.
Since 5 April 1998 at ULRICHSHOF
What was your funniest or best experience in the last 20 years at the ULRICHSHOF?
My best experience was on a rainy morning in service when a guest looked at me and said with a smile: ‘Now the sun is coming up!’
If you had to describe the ULRICHSHOF in three words, what would they be?
Do bine dahoam (Bavarian for ‘Here I am at home’)
Which place in the ULRICHSHOF is a real insider tip for you – and why?
The Garden of Eden – it has hardly changed over the years and radiates a wonderful sense of tranquillity
What has changed the most in the past 20 years – and what has (fortunately) always stayed the same?
The ULRICHSHOF has grown steadily and many things have changed. But one thing has (fortunately) remained the same: the boss and his two sons, who I have had the honour of accompanying all these years as they have grown up.
At ULRICHSHOF since 1 May 1995
What was your funniest or best experience in the last 20 years at ULRICHSHOF?
There are many! One particularly nice story is that of Rica from Hanover: even as a two-year-old, she regularly came to the ULRICHSHOF with her parents and dreamed of working here one day. Years later, her dream became reality – after graduating from high school, she began her apprenticeship at the hotel and became part of the team. But there were also many unforgettable moments with the animals in the stables – especially the ‘horse escape’. We actually only wanted to stroke Bill the carriage horse for a moment and opened the door to his stall to do so. But Bill seized the opportunity and stuck his head – and then his whole body – through it so that we could no longer close the door. Suddenly the whole stable followed him and before we knew it, all the horses were galloping out into the paddock, where they were munching on the lush grass with relish. A turbulent scene – but Grandpa Brandl remained completely relaxed: ‘The horses don’t leave the ULRICHSHOF grounds – they just feel at home here!’
If you had to describe the ULRICHSHOF in three words, what would they be?
Modern, spacious, close to nature.
Which place in the ULRICHSHOF is a real insider tip for you – and why?
Our shops! Whether it’s forgotten travel essentials or small emergency products – you’ll find everything you need for your holiday here.
What has changed the most in the past 20 years – and what has (fortunately) always stayed the same?
There used to be numerous red bobby cars in the residence lobby, on which children could whizz off immediately while their parents checked in in peace. Today, guests big and small swing on the inviting swings in Ulrichsplatz and enjoy arriving in a new, relaxed way. But if you look closely, you can still spot the red bobby cars at the back of the lobby – a piece of ULRICHSHOF history that has remained.
