    Nothing to dislike.

    What's not to like. A stay in a castle with a private balcony, fabulous views and being very well looked after. Free minibar and complimentary sherry in the room. Breakfast was exceptional with a wide choice from the buffet.

    The cost for this experience is higher than one would like, but still worth the experience. Bell Hop service was very good to assist with luggage, but needing to get there by a deadline was stressful.

    Everything about this hotel was amazing. It even had a bar fridge with a selection of beverages, including wine and beer, that was included in the room cost. There was a complementary flask of welcome sherry as well. The decorations of the room, the view from windows, and the top of the castle walkways was phenomenal. You really felt like you were living in a castle. The Restaurant service and food was really very good. Outside, there were pathways around the Hotel for walking excursions.

    I found the food incredibly expensive and drastically overpriced. 17 Euros for kids bolognaise! The food was exquisite and delicious though.

    The stay was exceptional and exceeded my expectations. There was so much attention to detail and our 'stay instructions' were clear and beautifully presented. The museum was a highlight.

    I love this property.

    I decided to stay because it is a castle! I’ll come back because the staff were gracious and helpful, the garden is a joy to explore (even in early winter) and there a fun nooks for hotel guests to congregate for games/conversation or to read/knit.

    We didn't know the main restaurants were closed during our visit (the staff accepted our reservation without mention anything). WiFi signal wont' come through in some rooms (the staff said) including our room.

    Once in a life time experience staying in a medieval castle. Classic yet very comfortable room. A million dollar view of the Rhine. Good walk in a nice garden. Complimentary beer, juice and drinks in the fridge. A kind of complementary liquor i don't know what's it called, smells like Glühwein though. Excelleng breakfast.

    None. Love it all! I wish I could have booked for 2 nights instead of 1 night only.

    one of my best hotel experiences. I understand how hard it is to maintain a hotel, let along in a historical building. The check in process was a big surprise, staff welcomed us so friendly and attentively, even when we check in very late, all the details inside the room, nice and warm, great view on balcony, the beautiful room key, heart warming welcome letter, spotless bathroom, well selected amenities(love the homemade shower gel), I felt like stepped into centuries ago. The moment I stepped on the staircase made me realized how fragile and precious this place is, it's a privilege to have the opportunity to stay here. The breakfast is tiniest yet the best that I ever had, food are fresh and well made, food counter is nicely displayed with the generous variation of food and drinks. I personally love the dining area, where gave me a peace of mind, I spent 2 hours having breakfast and enjoyed it every much. Also, there's a most beautiful smoking room in Germany, next to the most beautiful lady's room in the fireplace area. I will love to come again in spring to enjoy the castle garden, where is a hidden gem of this hotel. Photos can be spoilers for this castle hotel, just go and experience it. You will love it like I do.

    Stunning old castle with beautiful surroundings. We absolutely loved our stay. Not every day you can live in an old castle like that. Enjoyed the gardens and views. Only negative thing was that the castles nice resturant was closed on the days we stayed (Monday and Tuesday) but the food at the bistro was nice.

    We stayed in room 25. It's the "honeymoon suite" it's 2 stories and fit our family of 4 perfectly. My only complaints (which are minor) are the downstairs stayed pretty chilly, this included the bathroom too, even with the heat turned up. Also the bathroom water temps kept fluctusting for shower and baths so we had to adjust the temperature knobs.

    The location was excellent, the staff was amazing, and the ambiance was phenomenal. My two girls really enjoyed it. The food was excellent as well! The staff was very very good with our two girls, which we much appreciated.

    It’s a steep walk up for the car park, need to have a way to contact the porter when you arrive for assistance to bring up the luggage from the car.

    Everything was wonderful, we were pleased with the food, the flexibility of staff due to our dietary restrictions and the stay was one of our best.

    Leaving.

    This was probably the best hotel we have ever stayed in. There was so much to like you couldn't possibly list everything. Unique of course being a castle but the attention to detail and beautiful decorations throughout were amazing. Breakfast was fantastic and the view from the dining room even more special. Also for the price there were so many extra inclusions in your room that would normally not be included in the price. If that wasn't enough they have a fantastic museum and a book written about the history of the castle by the museum curator...Fabulous.
