Camping Simmerschmelz

The pitches are spacious but not flat. Staying connected really isn't an option. The sanitation facilities are outdated. You can smell the sewage and the water in the showers doesn't drain. You end up drying off in a puddle of water. Furthermore, it is a fallen glory. Messy. No swimming pool, permanently closed. No play areas or entertainment. No bread service. Additionally, a very unfriendly campsite owner. (If only we had read the reviews online, as they are not kind at all.) We will definitely never come back here.

Pros

Warm welcome from the owner. Nice sanitary facilities and it was great that we could keep the caravan attached to the car. We enjoyed a delicious meal at the restaurant; just be sure to make a reservation. Due to staff shortages, there are only limited spots available.

Cons

The owner is very friendly but comes across as rather gruff. That's a shame, and it's unnecessary. Unfortunately, the swimming pool is no longer in use! That's really a pity.

Pros

The campsite is quite nice in itself, but it is heavily neglected. Sanitary facilities and water points were closed, requiring us to walk further. A swimming pool on the website with clear blue water was upon our arrival a beautiful green and not maintained. The reception was also a bit awkward because we arrived early and it was actually their day off, which meant that the cafeteria was closed as well. Pitch/Rental accommodation: The location in the greenery and the spacious pitches.

Cons

Maintenance of the campsite needs improvement. It's really a lovely spot, beautifully set in nature. Please indicate on the website which days the cafeteria is closed so that visitors can plan their shopping accordingly. Pitch/Rental accommodation: The neglected condition of the campsite makes the price-quality ratio somewhat off.

Pros

The location of the campsite is okay. The owner is doing her best and is friendly. The interior of the bistro is inviting! Unfortunately, due to the red alert in Luxembourg, no kitchens are allowed to be open because of the heat. The toilets were clean and modern.

Cons

The route to the campsite is quite tricky for a larger combination, especially if you don't expect the hairpin bends. The campsite has a messy terrain with unfinished cabins, apparently not meant for rent. The showers have a maximum shower time. Then charge an extra euro for an overnight stay and leave the "imperative" aside. The owner is very grumpy and seems to have difficulty smiling or having a short chat. It seemed like he was no longer interested....

Pros

Everything is well organized, the sanitary facilities are good. The pitches are spacious and there's a nice and good restaurant.

Pros

It's a nice campsite for one night. The dinner was delicious: schnitzel and fish and chips. Beyond that, there's not much to offer; the showers smell like sewer, but the lady was very friendly. Pitch/Accommodation: Great spot

Cons

Showers Pitch/Accommodation: The host's instructions

Pros

The showers have a poor system that is not customer-friendly, and furthermore, the ladies' showers have cold water. After someone has taken a shower, you have to wait ten minutes before you can shower again. However, you don’t always know if someone just showered before you. The owner is not always very friendly, while his wife is much friendlier. Standplaats/Huuraccommodatie: Beautiful surroundings.

Cons

Come up with a different shower system, for example, using tokens for payment. Standplaats/Huuraccommodatie: Too few water points.

Pros

The owner is an arrogant, anti-social, frustrated man. We didn't even make it past the reception because, in his opinion, we hadn't parked our car correctly; he forced us to leave. Site/Accommodation: Avoid this run-down campsite.
