Koblenz: Rhine Valley Castles and Palaces Boat Tour
"Good location, 15 minutes walk from the old town. Quite spacious room with air con. Very good buffet breakfast in a very pleasant dining room. Helpful and friendly staff. All round good experience."
"We loved staying at this unique hotel, as if transported to another time. The room was big enough, the A/C worked well, the breakfast was delicious and reasonably priced. The indoor pool looked nice and clean, but lacked A/C and felt like being in a sauna, so we didn’t try it. Still, 100% recommended!"
"This Hotel was so beautiful! The outside was very serene and it made the trip! The rooms were comfortable and spacious. The food was also very good and the staff was very helpful! Little tip: if you leave the bag they give you on top of your bed and leave it on the door, you’ll get a little surprise! Loved this hotel, wish others were like it!"
"Hotel parking very limited, needed disabled space none. Stated restaurant but closed since covid.
Mattresses like a sack of potatoes. No kettle in room.
Appears to have had nothing spent on it in recent times."
"The room was nice super easy check in no problems finding the location. The room was very hot and the fan didn't really cool it off much but otherwise a very nice stay."
