    Description

    Be part of our tree house hotel 🌲🌙

    From March to October 2026, we welcome Workawayers to join our small team in central Germany (Hessen, Kassel). We ask for a minimum stay of three months. This is a tree house hotel where hospitality, gastronomy, and craftsmanship meet. We value good food, thoughtful design, art, team spirit, top service and a grounded way of living close to nature. We also enjoy social life, events, and occasional celebrations.

    Since this is a paid position with German minimum wage, we can only accept applicants who are legally allowed to work in Germany. If you are an EU/EEA or Swiss citizen, you are free to work here. If you are from outside the EU, you must already have a valid German work visa or residence permit that allows employment. Unfortunately we cannot sponsor visas.

    ⭐️ This is a paid position with breakfast, dinner and accommodation included.
    Accommodation is shared between the Workawayers in two separate houses at the hotel area, each house with two beds, WiFi, and a small chill area in one of the houses. Toilets and showers are in a building a few meters from the houses.
    You’ll have access to the restaurant kitchen. Some meals we cook and eat together; other days you’re free to cook yourself.

    🚞 Getting here:
    The nearest city is Göttingen. From there, you can take a train to Gertenbach where the hotel is located. It’s approximately a 45-minute walk from Gertenbach to the hotel, therefore 1-2 of you need to have a drivers license. We arrange pickup on arrival and drop-off when you leave.

    🌻 Location & surroundings:
    We are surrounded by forests and quiet nature. In the area you’ll find beautiful nature, hiking trails, forests and scenic viewpoints. There is a historic castle nearby and several small villages worth visiting. The nearest bigger city is Göttingen – a university town full of cafés, shops and culture.
    Berlin is about 3,5h away and Hamburg 3h away by car.

    Looking forward hearing from you! ✨
