Family-run since 1898

DIEDRICH - Your Spa & Wellness Hotel Sauerland

We have always asked ourselves what our guests really need. Our hotel was already a place of relaxation in 1898, the year it was founded, when we were a hotel with an imperial post office accommodating travelers passing through. Much has changed since then - today, more than 125 years later, we have become a tourist destination. Our 4-star superior hotel in the Sauerland is a true refuge: a place where you can recharge your batteries. A small oasis of well-being far away from everyday life, with plenty of space to relax and recharge.
