Wörners Schloss Weingut & Wellness Hotel

“A place to visit again”

What a romantic place. We stayed here with our two small children and can only recommend this hotel. The atmosphere is fantastic, the rooms beautiful and the food and wine excellent. On top of that the staff has been very friendly and made us feel like home.

This mini-campus was build several hundred years ago as a large fortified farmhouse and courtyard with a mote - enough to be called a castle. A couple of other buildings have since been added along the inside protective walls and the mote is gone. It has about 10 rooms or suites, with variations in style to fit within the shape of the castle. I stayed in the "ancestry room" with a bedroom, small living room, and the bathroom laid out along the "wall" side of the third floor. The two best things about this hotel are Harold and Herbert. Harold is a winemaker and the owner of this castle. He is VERY accommodating. The breakfast that comes with the room is served around 7am. But because this was a business trip, that was too late for me. So Harold offered to pack me a breakfast for each morning - customized to my tastes. I accepted, it was great! If Harold was only half as accommodating, I would still rate this place 5 stars. Now the place has a restaurant, and my first thought was "Isn't that convenient, if I don't want to hunt around there's a place right here". But this restaurant has Herbert who is a master in his art - and being at a winery in the middle of Bavaria, he is in his element. He also has an apprentice who is very good - but give that one another decade - I figure Herbert has that much to show. Over the course of my 10-night stay, I took advantage of this restaurant on 5 nights. I looked at the menu a couple of times, but I really depended on Harold to translate. I explained to him that I am pre-diabetic and needed to avoid starches - bread, rice, corn, potatoes, etc. He and Herbert then considered the problem and on those five nights came up with a variety of solutions that made full and expert use of the local Bavarian resources (wine, venison, crops, cattle) that were new (to me anyway), varied, delicious, and very well presented. I would say the soups were particularly good. Try the Paprika soup and the Red Wine soup! About eight months before leaving for this business trip, I had started walking to try to loose weight and recover some of my health. And I had some concerns about whether I was going to be able to sustain that during this trip. The geography of this place is farmlands laced with tractor/bicycle paths with villages every two or three miles. There are also roadways, but you can stay off them (and the associated traffic) most of the time. Prichsenstadt is a large village with quintessential Bavarian architecture - like something out of Disneyland. It's about 2 miles to the South. Neudorf is a small farming village, very quaint, a bit over a mile to the East. Between them, the farm road is marked where "Kleinschonbach" was stood, destroyed 400 years ago in an attack. The bottom line for me: With many pleasant walking trails and chef willing to customize meals for my, I lost 6 or 7 pounds. If you're not into walking they have other stuff there. Bikes, archery, a sauna.
