Overview

Set in a former railway station from the 19th century, this charming hotel in the small town of Hörstel offers cosy accommodation on the northwestern outskirts of the Teutoburger Wald forest. The Hotel Xtra Gleis boasts a unique location in a converted station. Look forward to bright, modern rooms, free high-speed internet access throughout the hotel, and free parking. From here, you can comfortably reach attractions including the historic Hermannsweg hiking route or the Surenburg castle in Riesenbeck. No stay would be complete without a refreshing drink in the beer garden and a fine glass of wine in the historic vaulted cellar.

We had a wonderful evening during one night stay as a stop over while traveling. Great food, a beer in the garden, a res

An interesting building ofcourse but what surprised us was the surroundings, the big old trees out front and the green lawn across the road. Great place to spend a summer evening.

Nice place for a stop over

Clean and friendly hotel. An old station building with visible railway tracks under the floor, a funny detail. Great food in the restaurant and free parking outside.

Loved our stay, would definitely return

The staff, particularly the host, were very helpful and friendly. We loved the restaurant and they allowed us to bring our little dog in there with us. The room was very spacious and the whole hotel was exceptionally clean and tidy

Great location and a charming hotel

The hotel is the converted old train station building and the train station itself is still there at this location. The hotel works in partnership with the restaurant that is situated on the ground floor with a spacious beer garden. I had dinner there on my arrival and the staff were very attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. It was a busy evening. The rooms are spacious and comfortable and clean. The breakfast buffet was full of choice and the lady went out of her way to fulfil everyone's wish.

Great stay, friendly staff and delicious food!

The atmosphere of the hotel is great, being an old (but beautifully renovated) trainstation. Staff very helpful, we arrived early but that was not a problem at all. During the short wait for our room to be ready, we were served a free cup of coffee. The restaurant serves very good meals for very reasonable prices!
