    In the spa tower we saw many dead bugs and by our door a few dead rats. Cleaning of common places could be improved.

    Amazingly well restored and the attention to detail that remains is very tastefully done.

    Only critique would be to emphasize the ability to use the spa and sign up for it to provide further access to the castle. We weren’t aware until the morning we left. My wife found it the information packet inside the room on the coffee table.

    Beautiful building, location, and rooms. Breakfast exceeded expectation. Restaurant nearby was amazing as well, and is only a few steps away!

    Pillows, bring your own. A lot of stairs so lugging your luggage up to the room is not the easiest.

    Very beautiful and the hostess did everything.

    enter an authentic historical castle environment

    Breakfast could have offered a wider choice and the surroundings are not used for instance for tennis or other exercise sports, otherwise no complaints

    Very comfortable hotel on the premises of a "real traditional castle" with a long authentic history but adjusted to modern standards of comfort. The atmosphere on entry is unique as is the character of each of the spacious rooms. Ours was equipped with spacious bath tub as well as shower; other traditional features of the castle (library, chapel, Rittersaal) are accessible to guests, unfortunately not the splendid castle garden.

    When you pull up to castle, park on the gravel portion of the ramp so you can turn around. Pulling all the way up to the castle entrance and having to back down is hairy.

    Major husband/sig other points here. Sure, it costs a bit more, but how many times does your wife get to spend the night in a real castle. Once in a lifetime experience.

    Nothing!

    A beautiful castle in the Alps. Great location easily accessible from the highway. It was quite a climb to our room, but it was so worth it..gorgeous suite with a large living area, a comfortable bedroom, and a fantastic modern bathroom. The staff were sp friendly, and they served a nice breakfast buffet.

    A truly memorable authentic castle stay

    It was unfortunate that the restaurant was closed the evening of our stay. It would have been nice to have been able to dine within walking distance instead of having to drive. The spa in our room was also not available despite it still being advertised as part of the deluxe suite.

    From the moment we arrived we knew we would be experiencing a genuine castle stay. We were pleasantly surprised when we were offered an upgrade to their deluxe suite which was exceptional. What we loved about the place was the effort that was made to maintain it's authenticity and you truly felt you were staying in a castle. The staff were welcoming and friendly and made our stay comfortable and relaxed.

    I think you could have allowed 3 girls in one room rather than making us reserve 2 rooms for 3 people.

    Food was perfect. Would have liked access to the garden in the back. I think that you could have allowed 3 girls in one of the rooms.

    No lift - no staff - check in stopped at 7pm - about 60 twisting stairs up a tower with bags and no help. Front door permanently locked - as though expecting an invasion. Unfriendly and harsh.
