Our visit to the lovely Cochem on the Mosel River in the Rhineland-Palatinate region of Germany was made even lovelier by our stay at a Cochem hotel called Pension Hendriks.

The short sojourn we had in this pretty bed and breakfast was so satisfying that the moment we left the place, I knew I just had to blog about it!
Location
Pension Hendriks is located at Jahnstr. 8, 56812, right in the heart of town. The Reichsburg (castle), marketplace, and other major points of interest are just a few minutes walk from it.
About this Cochem Hotel
This quaint little hotel in Cochem, Germany has an adequate number of rooms, a breakfast room, a communal area where you can bring your own dinner or enjoy a drink after a long day of sightseeing (reasonably priced bottles of wines are available for purchase), a veranda where one can enjoy a nice view of Reichsburg, and a small yet cute lobby. They provide free WIFI with a fast connection.
Our Cochem Hotel Room
Our room was a triple one with a private bathroom. It was nice and cozy. The decorations were lovely and the atmosphere was homey. It was spacious with a sitting area, desk and chair, in addition to the double and single beds. The bathroom was adequate in size, and spacious even for a European toilet. There were complimentary toiletries and a hair dryer. Everything was clean.
Amenities
What we loved about Pension Hendriks most were the excellent service and the ample free breakfast.
The owner was very nice and accommodating. We arrived in Cochem a bit later than scheduled because of a delay in the train schedule, so it was already dark when we finally reached town. The owner was, however, nice enough to give us a ride to the hotel. We were grateful for that because we later learned that the hotel was only accessible at that time via many flights of stairs and we would have had a very hard time climbing it on our own since we had luggages with us.
Upon arrival at the hotel, he provided us with maps and gave suggestions on places to visit. And throughout our stay, he was friendly and helpful. Plus, he drove us back again to the Hauptbahnhof (train station) when we left Cochem and even gave us a nice bottle of wine as some parting gift. We loved that Mosel wine!
Breakfast
The breakfast served by Pension Hendriks was something else—it was fantastic! The buffet table contained a lot of selections: scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, hams and sausages, different kinds of bread, bread spreads, yogurts, and other German dishes. There were hot chocolate, juice, coffee and tea. It was actually one of the best free breakfasts we’ve had! The owner himself attended to the guests the entire time. He made sure we had everything we needed and was quick to replenish the food and drinks.

There were several other guests during our stay and I could see that they were happy with everything. As to the price: it was good—cheap even—and considering the great place and the excellent service we received, it was all worth it.
