A
mixed
review:
the
location
of
the
Ameron
Neuschwanstein
is
ideal
for
anyone
wanting
to
visit
the
castle,
and
the
new
half
of
the
resort
is
beautifully
designed
(the
older
part,
not
so
much,
and
the
rooms
there
are
very
small).
The
service
was
mostly
very
good
-
BUT
there
were
quite
a
few
niggles
that
took
the
shine
off
our
holiday.
1)
I
realised
when
we
arrived
that
I'd
foolishly
left
the
charger
for
my
iPad
at
home.
I
asked
reception
if
they
had
one
that
I
could
borrow
for
a
couple
of
hours
-
and
they
said
no,
they
didn't!
Weird!
I
find
it
hard
to
believe
that
a
4-star
hotel
catering
to
international
guests
doesn't
have
an
old
iPad
charger
lying
around
somewhere
(especially
as
there
were
quite
a
few
hotel
iPads
visible!).
2)
The
hotel's
Lisl
restaurant
requires
you
to
reserve
a
table
in
advance,
but
that
night's
menu
(which
has
a
very
small
selection)
is
only
made
available
at
6pm
each
evening
...
so
you
just
have
to
hope
that
you
like
what's
on
offer
that
night.
3)
We
reserved
a
table
one
night
anyway,
but
just
as
we
were
taking
the
first
sip
of
our
drinks
the
manager
arrived
and
started
setting
up
a
baby
seat
at
the
adjoining
table,
literally
within
arm's
reach.
The
child
was
carried
in
a
moment
later,
and
the
manager
looked
up
and
noticed
my
wife
looking
a
bit
apprehensive
...
because
we'd
all
seen
that
particular
toddler
screaming
around
in
the
lobby
with
his
two
older
siblings
earlier
in
the
day,
running
in
and
out
of
the
auto
doors
repeatedly,
while
the
mother
buried
herself
in
her
mobile
phone,
unconcerned.
The
manager
looked
at
my
wife
and
asked
loudly:
"IS
THERE
A
PROBLEM?"
(even
though
she
hadn't
said
a
word;
was
just
looking
unhappy!)
He
shuffled
the
baby
chair
back
from
our
table
by
maybe
two
or
three
inches
and
then
left.
I
don't
like
making
a
scene
in
public,
so
I
followed
him
back
to
where
he
was
standing
and
I
asked,
very
politely,
if
we
could
be
moved
to
a
different
table.
He
told
me,
no,
all
the
other
diners
had
so
many
requests
of
their
own
so
he
couldn't
help
me,
and
said
that
this
was
a
family
restaurant
so
we
just
had
to
stay
put.
I
said,
in
that
case,
we'd
pay
for
our
drinks
and
go
eat
elsewhere,
as
the
waiter
had
only
just
taken
our
order
and
the
kitchen
wouldn't
have
started
preparing
the
food.
(30
euros,
by
the
way,
for
a
glass
of
wine,
a
draft
beer,
and
a
Coke
Zero!).
He
agreed.
He
started
arguing
with
us
as
we
were
leaving,
trying
to
tell
us
that
we
couldn't
have
our
food
in
the
adjoining
bar
-
I
pointed
out
that
we
didn't
WANT
any
food
in
the
adjoining
bar,
because
we'd
cancelled
the
order,
remember?
Not
sure
what
that
was
all
about
-
I
can
only
assume
he'd
misunderstood,
perhaps
because
of
the
language
barrier
-
and
he
finally
brought
our
drinks
over,
with
the
30-euro
bill,
and
we
drank
them
and
left.
At
no
point
had
he
apologised
or
made
any
effort
to
smooth
over
the
situation.
Very,
very
poor
people
skills,
and
not
what
you
expect
from
a
restaurant
with
upper-class
aspirations.
4)
The
room
service
menu
is
extremely
limited.
5)
This
is
a
purely
personal
thing
but
...
there's
no
hot
chocolate
available
in
the
hotel!
They
have
a
lovely
(gas)
fireplace
in
the
lobby,
with
comfy
chairs,
in
this
Alpine
setting
...
but
you
can't
order
a
hot
chocolate
and
cake
to
enjoy
while
you're
sitting
there!
There's
tea
or
coffee,
and
just
one
dessert
available
-
some
kind
of
strudel
thing
that
didn't
taste
too
good.
6)
Lastly,
my
son
had
a
room
in
the
old
section
of
the
hotel
(very
small,
despite
being
a
so-called
double).
His
room
had
guest
slippers
provided;
the
room
that
my
wife
and
I
were
in,
in
the
new
section,
did
not.
Our
in-room
coffee
maker
came
with
sugar
sachets,
his
did
not.
One
of
the
coffee
cups
in
his
room
had
a
large
chip
on
the
lip.
One
of
the
curtain
hooks
in
our
room,
the
corner
one,
was
missing,
meaning
you
couldn't
close
it
entirely
to
block
the
early-morning
light.
Small
things,
all
of
them
...
but
it's
the
small
things
that
often
make
the
difference.
