Family History
…and it begins over 200 years ago.
What once began as a guest house with guest rooms and a butcher’s shop is now a modern boutique hotel with unique city rooms, from Honolulu to Milan.
We are proud that we are the 5th generation of our family to run the business, providing our guests with an exclusive, family atmosphere.
The beginning
The foundation of the family business was laid by Marianne Winkelmann’s (née Hodes) great-great-grandparents. The idea was born to bring people together with good conversation and delicious home cooking. Even back then, it was important to the family to offer guests a refuge to leave the stresses and strains of everyday life behind, to recharge their batteries.
Work was hard at those times and the technical conveniences were still far away. It was therefore e more important for the guests to have a place where they could switch off. Today one would talk about deceleration, leaving the stress of everyday life behind.

Today
Today, the Boutique Hotel Stadtvilla Hodes is a prime example of the successful combination of historic buildings and contemporary, classic design.
Tradition for over 200 years – that is what we would like to show you in our Boutique Hotel in Fulda, of course with all the amenities of a modern city hotel.
