The staff was extremely flexible and accommodating with the check-in. The place is very interesting and has some exhibitions and information which must not be missed.

A tiny thing: the pigeon poo on the window sills

Amazing to stay in a proper castle!! It was/is partly a youth hostel and that’s evident in the decor of the rooms. However, it was very comfortable and quiet. Great views across the valley. The lady at reception was super friendly. Easy bus access to Bad Schandau and Bastei. Good breakfast buffet with fresh Brötchen!

It was hard to find something for dinner, the local cafeteria closed at 5pm and any other restaurant was a 25 minutes walk away For a "hotel" the breakfast was rather basic

We had a nice welcome, Coffee and cake were great, Rooms were very nice and clean

Only minor: - No fridge in the rooms. - Not impressive breakfast ;)

The View…

Very close to Nature… absolut to recommend..

Stayed in April 2023

The room was ok, only the bathroom door would always close on its own and the bottom of the door had a vent which made it a little uncomfortable to share with a couple. The mattresses seemed to need replacement as they did not do good to our backs.

The burg is beautiful, amazing views and historical information inside.

A curtain or blind in the bathroom that faced houses across the valley would have been nice.

Room was great and buffet meals allowed me to eat what I needed.

location and room facilities

We hardly had any connection to the internet. We traveled by bus and it was really difficult to plan our journey without internet.

The location is breathtaking! In the castle you will find many surprises and it's just perfect for kids. The staff was super friendly and our room was very comfortable.

nothing

was lovely to stay in a castle! great views, fab location as we arrived on the malerweg, a really great spot for a lovely cold pint when we got in. Dinner was a bargain.

no wifi in guest rooms.

location was awesome, great for activities and hiking. obviously staying in an old castle is fun! good breakfast.

Stayed in May 2022

No wifi in the room, but that was a good opportunity to go offline.

Amazing location in an old castle, beautiful views and environment close to Malerweg. Very friendly staff & clean and spacious rooms.

The bed was too spongy and soft, wasn’t great for the back.

The uniqueness of staying in a castle with a museum. It was great that this property also offered food as there were no other restaurants open in the town during our stay.

Stayed in February 2022

WiFi was only at the reception. NO WIFI IN ROOMS.

Location was very nice.

Stayed in June 2021

the internet didn’t work and there is no mobile coverage. as a solo traveller hiking the route, not having checked in caused some concern.

The property was on the Malerweg. It had a very good breakfast

Stayed in August 2023

Not a big deal that day but no wifi

Amazing location, fantastic views, great room

Stayed in July 2023

Facilities look like old soviet time "pioneer camp", room for 2 is is filled with bunk bed, no room to move around. Shower room needs renovation, limited supply of shampoo. It was hard to find the hotel - there is only one very small sign on entrance of the castle, staff does not speak English - so they can't help you either. When arriving after 5pm, there are nowhere to have a dinner (even it says in booking.com that there are several restaurants nearby) - everything closes at 5PM (including shops) - so be prepared :).

Hotel is inside old castle. Found Meschke's pub in up hill in the edge of the town - we got finally nice dinner there.

1. Very rare bus connection, especially after 18:00 or weekends, which makes it very difficult to get back. 2. No Internet connection in room, even worse is the mobile connection is also horrible: you have No Internet in your room! Can you imagine this in 21st century? 3. The room quality is very limited, like a 1980's student dormitory, and they cost for 100 euro 4. The castle? yes, it is, a castle, and that's it. No special views or attractions here. 5. No more food or drink after 19: 30, and all stores are closed. No supermarket, No bar, No restaurant, even no light! stay away

1 star is given to the nice breakfast, no more.

Fantastic location, looks medieval but very modern. Great experience.

rather low standard

location is beautiful

Stayed in October 2022

Price for family is high as they charge the same price per person for adults and kids. Breakfast and dinner was OK, not great. No water or other drinks was included for dinner. Old towels. Beds not the most comfy. No wifi.

Beautiful location, clean room. Friendly staff.

Stayed in August 2022

The room was very very basic, and for that the price was pretty steep.

The castle on its own is a cool location and the reception staff is very friendly.
