Fletcher Hotel Restaurant Sundern Sorpesee
Safari rooms and a sauna by the Sorpesee shore
About this hotel
Fletcher Hotel Restaurant Sundern Sorpesee sits out toward the reservoir in Sundern, a genuine lake town rather than a suburb of Plettenberg, which suits a family planning to combine AquaMagis pool days with walks along the Sorpesee shoreline. The hotel's safari theme gives the rooms a distinct character among the more standard Sauerland guesthouses nearby, and a sauna and steam room on-site give the adults somewhere to unwind once the kids are down for the evening, after a day split between slides at the water park and a swim or walk at the lake. Free parking is close to essential here, since both AquaMagis and Sorpesee require a drive rather than a walk, and pet-friendly rooms mean the family dog can join the lake walks too. The restaurant covers most evenings without anyone needing to drive back into town for dinner.

Our take
Fletcher Hotel Restaurant Sundern Sorpesee suits a family who wants genuine Sorpesee lake time alongside AquaMagis and values a real sauna and steam room for the evenings, especially parents who want somewhere to decompress after a full day of pool supervision. It suits less well a family wanting to walk to the water park, since this is a lake-first base with a drive to AquaMagis rather than the reverse.
- ✓Book the sauna or steam room slot ahead during school holidays, when evening demand rises after AquaMagis days.
- ✓Plan a Sorpesee lake walk for at least one afternoon, since the shoreline sits right on the property's doorstep.
- ✓Reserve on-site dinner in advance during peak weeks, given the limited alternatives out near Sundern itself.

Why guests love itWe split our days between AquaMagis and the Sorpesee shoreline right by the hotel, and the sauna became our evening routine once the kids were asleep. The safari theme in the rooms was a hit with our two, who treated it as part of the holiday rather than just a place to sleep, and free parking meant the car was ready every morning without a second thought about where to leave it.
