Welcome to the Rheingau and the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Upper Middle Rhine Valley! Completed in 2020, Apartment 541 offers modern amenities along with underfloor heating and a ventilation system that exchanges the air three times a day. The apartment is ideal for two adults and also features a sofa bed in the open-plan living/dining area, allowing a total of 4 people to be accommodated. Children are very welcome and a cot can be set up for infants in the double bedroom free of charge upon request. A high chair and toys are also available. The well-equipped kitchen is stocked with basic commodities – spices, oil, tea and coffee. The outdoor area is not quite finished, however we have now completed the spacious terrace (approx. 14 m²). It is available exclusively for guests to sit back, relax and enjoy the evening sun and views of the River Rhine and nearby castles over a glass of fine local wine.

As a young and cosmopolitan multinational family, we love the flexibility of staying in an apartment when we travel. Having visited to all four corners of the globe, we know just what helps to create a cosy and welcoming home away from home. We are delighted to now be able to return some of the hospitality displayed to us in the most diverse spots around the world. We look forward to welcoming you to Apartment 541! ************************** For want of a better place to include this information, PLEASE NOTE: The local authorities plan to introduce a tourism fee of 2 EUR per person and day in 2021 for visitors to Lorch. This fee will apply for all visitors over the age of 18; the days of arrival and departure will be counted as one day. An exact date for introduction of this new fee has not yet been agreed as the local municipalities must first confer. It also remains unclear how the tourism fee will be collected, which paperwork is required, etc. We will provide further details here as soon as more information becomes available.
