Where people make the difference

At Gebhards, we work together to create a place where hospitality, team spirit and personality come together. Whether at reception, in service, management or administration, we treat our guests from all over the world and each other with warmth, openness and genuine care.

As part of FREIgeist Hotels and the Hardenberg BurgHotel, we believe in a way of working shaped by trust, openness and mutual support. Short decision-making processes and a shared ambition to actively shape the hotel’s next chapter are part of who we are.

Those who join the team at Gebhards Hotel Göttingen can expect an environment where hospitality, team spirit and personal development go hand in hand.

Our Vision

We want to be a place that feels less like a hotel and more like a familiar retreat – a place where you are happy to arrive, feel at home and always look forward to returning.

Our Mission

We create stays that feel personal and familiar. We combine the history of our house with contemporary hospitality, creating a place where you can arrive, slow down and feel at home.

wishes in mind.
