Hotel Sorat Agneshof


I LOVE this hotel. It is so comfortable and, most of all, quiet. There is no traffic to be heard at all. Walk to the end of the short lane, the Agnesgasse, and there is a view of a great Gothic church. [As I am downloading these pics I am sitting in the bar/lounge of the hotel. The much anticipated soccer match, Germany vs England has just commenced. First the national anthems of each country were played. Germany's is, of course, composed by Haydn -- top drawer, and "God Save the Queen" a rousing hymn. I can hear thousands of fans chanting and singing, Germans and Brits. No American sport gets as intense as this. There are a few hotel guests watching the proceedings; they are jumping out of their chairs at every good play of the German team. If the German team wins, the party will go on all night in this country.]
