    Nearly everything was perfect. A pool would even make it even more amazing.

    Nestled in a serene, tranquil setting amidst lush nature, the hotel offers a fairy-tale escape. With its peaceful surroundings reminiscent of a magical castle, guests are transported to a realm of tranquility and beauty.

    good but not great.

    We arrived on a Sunday. We were surprised to learn the bar and restaurant was closed. We managed to get a tea which was good but expensive. The breakfast was €24 a person, which is pricey.

    The Location of the hotel is great. We upgraded to be in the main house which gave us a view onto the courtyard. We choose it because of its history. The room was spacious and quiet and the beds were comfortable.

    The shower wasn’t private, had only a sliding partition which shielded it from the bed area but didn’t offer much privacy.

    Setting was pleasant, but the hotel rooms were in a modern, separate building that felt nothing like a castle.

    A bit pricey for the season, and price per dog was also a bit much, even though I am happy to pay for my dogs usually. I believe is was 20 euros per dog, per night.

    Beautiful hotel. The bed was very comfortable, the pillows were very soft, but that’s down to taste I think. we travelled with our 2 medium sized dogs and we felt very welcome with them. (Spain to Denmark) The hotel is surrounded by an incredible forest where we went for a morning walk with them. Our dogs were allowed into the hotel restaurant with us. We had the breakfast buffet, which was delicious. There is also a great park and dog park nearby! would come back for sure.

    Last year we could charge our electric car. This your this service has been discontinued “due to high electricity prices” as explained by the reception. why not increase pricing? For us not having charging facilities is a reason not to come back to this hotel, despite the positives of the hotel.

    nice spacious facilities, friendly personnel.

    Service level (low level of customer care), e.g. reception staff on (private?) call for more than five minutes not serving checkout customers, breakfast staff must be asked for serving boiled eggs, pepper, hot water (annoying for the servant on day 1, shameful for unavailability with the servant on day 2), room cleaner makes herself audible as much as possible when her shift starts at 7:30 am…

    Even though the property is huge, the rooms were in relation quite small. I am fully aware that I booked the rooms in the 'Zeughaus', which was a seperate building next to the hunting lodge, but even that was quite small for the price we paid. No breakfast options in the 'Zeughaus'

    Location was great: located in the midst of beautiful nature and at a short distance of other beautiful towns The room was clean Hotel staff was very helpful

    Beds were comfortable, room spotless clean. Traveling for business but with dog. Great for walks, just 1 minute from the hotel acres of walks, lake, forest. Good free wifi in the rooms for business. Sekt Bfast exceptional choice & quality. Hotel was business-like, functional, clean,.

    Pleasant, but mixed feelings because of the problems with the Zeughaus.

    • Standard Double Room „Zeughaus“ (Adjoining building 200 meter)
    • Stayed 1 night

    We stayed in the Zeughaus, a separate building about half a mile away from the main hotel building. From the main building, there were no signs indicating the way to Zeughaus. We drove there and left searching for another place, because the building itself had no sign it belonged to the hotel. Instead, a sign "museum" which made us believe it was the wrong place. After dinner, we had to walk back in total darkness - a no-go for women traveling alone.

    Nicely located. The park isa beautiful. Very convenient for visiting the center of Darmstadt.
