KNAUS Campingpark Bad Kissingen**** Reviews

Advantages
The location to the Saale Park and the city.
Negatives
Premium pitches without TV reception and poor wifi. Pitches badly marked. Too few power connections, you are forced to drive over the neighbors' cables. Sanitary facilities old, showers partly black disgusting joints. Restaurant closed for years, no store, no beer garden.
No more Knaus Camp Bad Kissingen
The place is totally overpriced for its performance and
overpriced. First of all, the so-called premium pitches are not worth the extra charge. For Premium there is a lack of pitch size and facilities, such as your own
TV, water and electricity. The so-called event surcharge is a pure rip-off, regardless... of whether you visit the off-road fair or not, the campsite does nothing for the surcharge. For 2 people with caravan,
event surcharge and visitor's tax we paid 78.00 euros per night.

Advantages
Beautiful location on the Franconian Saale, right next to the spa gardens.
Negatives
Inattentive, indifferent management, price-performance ratio
The location is great, but...
Wi-Fi/Internet: extremely slow and unreliable. Information at reception: you only have a DSL connection, and according to the IT department there's nothing you can do. The invention of Starlink must have passed these people by. Even worse: the IT department has censored a number of websites in order... to reduce traffic. But you only find out when you ask. The disparity between this non-performance and the prices didn't matter to them at all.
Care/maintenance: could be improved. For example, a table with seating directly in front of the notice board at the sanitary building is completely rotten. Nobody seems to be bothered by the impression this makes on guests. The corners of the showers could be cleaned and the cobwebs in the roof could be removed. Moss is already growing in the doormat in front of the sanitary building, etc.
Lunch break: the barrier is closed from 12:00 to 14:00. However, this does not prevent a very loud motorized lawnmower from driving across the pitch during this time. Not once, but all the time. Thoughtlessness?
The barrier is closed from 12:00 to 14:00 because of the midday rest period. But that doesn't stop a very loud motorized lawnmower from driving across the square during this time. Not once, but all the time. Thoughtlessness?
Fresh water/waste water connections: would be expected as standard in this price range, but are only available on a few pitches at the entrance for an extra charge.
Restaurant: The restaurant on the pitch was closed. Allegedly no tenants found. Very annoying, as there are no other restaurants in the immediate vicinity.
Conclusion: I have known this beautiful site since the 1990s, when it was run by a private tenant who lovingly looked after every detail with open eyes and also sought contact with the guests to find out their point of view. The current situation is characterized by indifference.

We did not like the place. Overall, we found the place very unkempt, the plots very small. The location to the town is good.

Negatives
the stubbornness of employees
No understanding in the event of cancellation
I wanted to spend a night here on the way there and back to Lake Constance. I therefore booked two nights back in December 2023. Due to an e-scooter accident resulting in surgery, I was forced to cancel these overnight stays in mid and late September. They insist on the terms and conditions and reduce... the refund of the deposit by 30%. This outrageous behavior has never happened to me at other places. The deposit of 27 euros per night was also described as a deposit, although I would only have paid 27 euros with an ACSI card.

Advantages
Location on the Saale, nice staff
Negatives
Expensive and very noisy due to the location below the bypass.
Expensive and very loud.
It is a rather small site with so-called premium pitches. These premium pitches are right on the water but only on gravel. The price of €112 for 2 days with a camper van and 2 people is far too expensive for what is on offer. The beer garden is closed from Monday to Thursday. KNAUS must react quickly here otherwise no one will come. I expected much more for the prices.

Advantages
- right next to the beautiful spa gardens - close to the town - beautiful walking paths - very friendly lady (Mrs. Jany) at the reception
Negatives
- Street noise, very loud day and night - Price performance too expensive
Small square near Bad Kissingen
The pitch is rather small.
It is located directly on a busy road/bridge. Street noise day and night. You can't sleep without earplugs! The price is absolutely exorbitant! Too expensive! The proximity to the spa gardens and the town is great! Friendly, flexible lady at the reception. Sanitary facilities older but clean.

Negatives
We booked a premium pitch on the bank - in reality a pitch like any other, not visible from the banks of the Saale and also no direct access to the Saale, for 60.40€ per day a pure rip-off.
Huge disappointment, never again Knauss
I won't be going to Knauss pitches again, the pitches are pure rip-off and offer nothing at all, 60.40€ per NIGHT is already a high house number for the booked pitch which didn't reflect what I actually booked. The garden restaurant has seating from the 70s, rickety metal and wood chairs (maybe they... should raise the fees to buy good chairs).
I won't be using Knauss pitches again and certainly won't be recommending them to others - they are simply not worth it. So if you want good value for money stay away from Knauss campsites.

Advantages
Close to the city
Negatives
On the main road, very noisy. Totally outdated.
Overnight stay
Despite the Acsi Card, an overnight stay with electricity, visitor's tax and environmental fee costs € 32.20. This site is no longer worth it, especially as the sanitary building is totally outdated. It wasn't clean during our stay either. Long distances to water and waste water.
Very disappointing. We left after one night.

Advantages
-Location of the square at the Kurpark -Price -Opportunities for entertainment -Cleanliness -Friendliness of the operators
Negatives
-some street noise, but only during the day -power cable must be long, partly
Beautiful place to relax
Our Whitsun trip took us to this campsite.
It was well worth it. Nice little site, without many permanent campers. Good access to the site and nice team.
Pitches are of different sizes, but adequate.
Electricity connection is sometimes a bit far, so a long cable is a "must".
Due to the location directly... at the Kurpark you are very central and everything is within walking or cycling distance.
You can leave your car for a few days.
The sanitary facilities were always very clean and perfectly adequate.
We will definitely be back, because Bad Kissingen is a great town.
It is important to note that the campsite is not necessarily suitable for children.

Ideal for city strolls and bike tours
We were here in September 2020. The campsite is located directly on the Fränkische Sale. UThe reception was very friendly. The pitch was big enough.

Old, nothing is invested, too expensive for what is offered, no WiFi, corona rules seem to be implemented without a system
not a figurehead for Knaus Campingparks
Location is good if you want to be central, sanitary facilities old but reasonably clean, shower heads are a disaster (limescale and dirt), you don't want to shower there, corona measures are poorly implemented, no system behind them, not a cent was invested here either, except in the reception, price is a cheek for this place (which doesn't even offer WLAN these days).

Location
Negatives
In my opinion, as an ex-entrepreneur from the service sector, it is not up to standard to ensure appropriate handling of campers. I had the feeling of being a recruit in the German army. And after specifications such as distance (which was observed by me) was unfairly corrected. Absolutely impersonal and not recommended.
Poor personal addresses and specifications that do not comply with the appropriate label
Not recommended because of the poor personal approach, also from the manager, which I don't understand. My recommendation is that the team should undergo contact training.

Nice campsite close to the city with very friendly operators
Were there in December. Despite fewer guests, there were fresh bread rolls every day and even the restaurant was open. We were there with the caravan and were still allowed to stand on a gravelled motorhome pitch. We will definitely be back.

Nice location, centrally located by the park and close to the city. Clean, small, cozy.
Negatives
Federal highway in the immediate vicinity.
good campsite
Small site, very clean, manageable, situated on the Franconian Saale. The main road in the immediate vicinity is not great for campers. The turf is approx. 5 cm thick and stony underneath. You should have a hammer with you for the pegs.

Bad Kissingen at the foot of the Franconian Rhön with its beautiful spa facilities of the Kiss Salis Therme and its historic history.
Beautifully situated campsite on the Franconian Saale
An idyllic, clean campsite on the banks of the Franconian Saale. Top sanitary facilities, super friendly team, small beer garden by the water invites you to linger and only a stone's throw over the so-called Preußensteg and you are in the middle of the spa facilities of Bad Kissingen.

Advantages
Located close to the city, pitches not parceled out and sufficiently large.
Negatives
too expensive, price-performance ratio not right.
Beautiful place at the spa gardens
This was our third time at this campsite. Beautifully situated by the spa gardens, not very big, friendly welcome. Sanitary facilities in order, except for too few toilets for the men. Everything kept very simple. Unfortunately, there is a surcharge of 5 euros per day at the Allrad Messe, which we didn't... think was right, as the site is already expensive enough without a kiosk. Unfortunately, it has become very expensive since the Knaus takeover. For this price you can go to a 5 star campsite.
