Traumatica looks like same old thing...

Bad news folks, having just returned from a stay in Elzpark, Sybille has informed me that due to the owners age, they will be permanently closing at the end of the year. I don't believe that it is being sold or bought by anyone else, so I imagine only time will tell - but such a shame as it was a great facility.

Noooooo :(

I'd be extremely surprised if it wasn't picked up by someone, property in Rust is in incredibly high demand. With the waterpark on the horizon that demand is only going to keep growing.

Gutted though, that was the first place I stayed off site and I doubt a new owner would be as awesome as the current ones!

Oh. My. God.

This place has been my EP trip home for 8 years... I can't believe it. I am genuinely incredibly upset!!!

Guys can we club together and keep it going??? THIS CANNOT HAPPEN!!
 
Wow, thanks for letting us know but that is really sad news. I've only stayed at Elzpark three times but it is such a lovely place. Spacious apartments, friendly and helpful staff, brilliant located with stunning views and the ability to get bottles of Erdingers for a stupidly cheap price!

It is one of the best rated and regarded places to stay in Rust so it must have been a hard decision for them. I do hope that they look to sell the business although as Craig says it would be hard to find owners as good as the current ones.

It would be strange if it wasn't sold, there is huge demand for accommodation in Rust (new apartments are being constructed oposite Elzpark at the moment). But I suppose they may have other ideas of what to do with the building for the time being.

:)
 
Whilst the rooms / apartments were good, i always felt Elzpark was a little impersonal compared to other Rust accommodation. The lack of breakfast also playing as a negative.

However, i have stayed there a few times and was impressed with how spacious it was.

To be fair, it is an apartment, not a B&B. :)
 
I'm aware, but I always crave meats/cheeses in Deutschland!

Hiya, Does anyone know how easy/cheap it will be to pickup a car from the airport. The prices online seem to be between £150 and £200 for 3 days and i thought that was a bit expensive?
 
Im going 18th to 21st August and the cheapest i can find is £150.05 and thats exactly 72 hours when ideally i need it for about 75 hours but that bumps it up to nearer £200
 
ah that does an expensive weekend.

I found this carrentals.co.uk

I've never used the site but it does have a corsa for £38 for those 3 days. Obviously use this at your own risk and do your homework before booking.
 
You are a legend. Mine was still coming up loads and i couldnt work out why and then i realised. yours is for the french side and mine the swiss! French side is like 70-80% cheaper!
 
Happy to help :) As pointed out to me a few pages back, unless you are a Swiss national (or non-EU national bizarrely) you cannot hire a swiss plated car in Switzerland and cross the border. That may have saved you sticky conversation with the popo/border official.

Have a great trip.
 
Does anyone know how much a three day ticket (consecutive days) costs at Europa Park? And can they only be bought when at the park? Thanks
They are around 120€ I believe, and yes they can only be bought at the park. You can't use the ticket machines either, you have to go to one of the ticket booths and ask. :)
 
Has anyone been since Voletarium opened?

I'm stopping in the hotel Andaluz next month and wondering if it is worth travelling across the park at 8:30 or doing Blue Fire and Whale adventures as part of ERT? Then try to get on Wodan as soon as it opens.

Any suggestions? Thanks :)

@Rob will be your best bet for this one I think.
