When we exited the train in Hermann at 5.25 pm everything was closed. We stood at the train station wondering where the hotel was. Its a small town so there were no buses, taxis, shuttles etc. I tried calling the hotel 4 times and it kept going to voicemail. We started walking and found a pub open and was able to get an idea of which way to start walking. We found the hotel within about a half mile. Okay not so bad. The hotel was fantastic. The folks were great, the rooms were great. They had their live music on the large patio from 6 to 9 pm. The bar downstairs is beautiful and rustic. The whole place was rustic and beautiful. I'll be back for sure. The town of Hermann is full of old historic places. Just looking at the buildings was amazing. I wished I didnt have to leave. The prices were high for everything. Water, soda, food...everywhere in town. The hotel gives you a free drink of your choice upon checin and a nice continental breakfast. Bicycle rentals are available and just walking around town to all the shops was nice.
