Me and my partner stayed for a single night over Easter. We had a lovely time and enjoyed the magical atmosphere, historical architecture, amazing food and great service. The room was huge with at least 60m2 and there is lots of wood. We will definitely come back! – Note: the place will probably be busy with weddings etc. during the summer, so best to avoid staying during weekends if you can.

“Historic atmosphere and great food.”

This hotel is also know as Schlosshotel Burgstall. The building is the former stables and has been beautifull renovated with masses of character, much exposed timber and lots of antiques and artefacts. The rooms are huge, with a sitting room on the lower level and bedroom and bathroom upstairs. There is lots of wood and old furniture. We just wished that the upper room (light and airy) had been the sitting room and lower room the bedroom but it was lovely to have so much space. Perhaps the collection of furniture could be a little less eclectic and the bathroom is in need of modernisation, but the character was so great, we forgave these things. We ate in the garden, next to the pond with fountain. There is a great view of the castle from the bedroom and the outside eating area. The service was excellent and the food was well above the average quality in the area. The al dente vegetables were particularly welcome as these are almost unknown in Germany. The only criticism of the meal was my husband's steak which we ordered as rare and it arrived well done. I should add that, as we provide holiday accommodation ourselves, we are more fussy that most! We plan to return regularly!

“Living Like a Knight”

Staying in the gate to the castle was unique. The antiques and overall atmosphere were very interesting. The room was more than spacious and well-equipped. Breakfast was amazing! The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was that the mattress was in need of replacing.

We were travelling to Germany in late October, arriving in Munich just after Oktoberfest. Though we wanted to stay in Munich, the hotel prices were still stupidly high due to the Oktoberfest crowds. I started searching further and further outside of Munich and came across this magnificent hotel. It was just over an hour drive from the Munich Airport, but it was a nice little drive through the Bavarian countryside. We arrived a little earlier than they opened for check-in, but Inga, the lovely hostess got a room ready for us so we could have a nap and then get ready to go out for dinner. The hotel is located at the foot of the castle in what looks like the old gatehouse. The rooms are very interesting, low ceilings in the hallways (I'm 6'3" and I had to bend down to walk without hitting my head). Our room was on two levels and had a nice big bathroom with a deep tub and a huge bedroom with a big comfy bed. There was a sitting room with a couch and another smaller bedroom on the main floor. Breakfast was lovely, Inga had everything set up for us with a nice selection of fresh fruit, cheese, bread and cereals. She even made us eggs. The grounds of the hotel are quite lovely as well, a big fountain and beer garden, which I imagine they use for weddings etc. We met the owner of the castle, a very nice man who invited us to go explore it but we never had the chance. This would be a great hotel for couples and families with kids as there is a lot to see and do. Special thanks to Inga, for always having a big smile on her face, giggling all the time and making our stay so pleasant. There was no wi-fi in our room and we had to go down to the lobby to get on-line - I'm not sure if they have fixed that yet - you might want to inquire. Highly Recommended!!!!
