On top of a hill overlooking the nicest part of the Rhine valley, build into 12th. century castle walls, preserving enough details for a true castle living experience with deluxe accomodations and excellent restaurant. We had a large room with sitting area, big bathroom, 4 poster queen bed and terrace overlooking the Rhine. Well trained staff and top food. Only... more

When my husband and I arrived at Schoenburg, we were absolutely amazed. It felt like being on a movie set. We stayed in the Tower Room with an incredible view both inside the room and outside via the balcony. We ate a wonderful dinner in the restaurant, and the breakfast was fantastic. Although service was a little disorganized and lacking... more

We only stayed 1 night but we took in so much. We stayed in the top tower and the room, the 12th century atmosphere was excellent. The reception and staff were friendly, the food excellent. Having dinner overlooking the Rhine was just glorious. The complimentary breakfast was so luxurious it was more like a "high tea", We loved the town... more

My husband and I could only get one night at Schoenburg and I'm SO glad that we were able to do that. It was one of those experiences that I know we will talk about for the rest of our lives. We were in the room with the bookcase/bathroom and it was AMAZING. The room itself was enormous and the... more

I was here during June, and it was fabulous. The staff is multi-lingual, and very helpful, they will answer any questions that you may have. I stayed in a double room with a courtyard view for 160 Euros, it was probobly the greatest value I have ever gotten in Europe. It was decorated in fashion with the 12th Century fortress,... more

Hi there! This review is a little late, but the memory of such a wonderful evening is still very fresh in my mind! My husband and I spent a wonderful 5 days in the charming town of Oberwesel for the New Year holiday. We did not actually stay the castle (we stayed in the wonderful Weinhaus Weiler - see my... more

The wife and I stayed in the top tower room for our 10th wedding anniversary just before we left Germany. It was well worth the 195 euros we paid (June 2005). The view, history and local scenery is beyond words. You'd pay more to stay in a lesser NYC hotel. Make sure to book 2-3 months out if you are... more

The Castle Hotel Auf Schönburg was our last hotel during our eighteen day trip through northern Germany and, I have to say, we definitely saved the best for last. After reading that this was one of the top ten castle hotels as rated by Frommer's, I felt we had to give it a try. Correspondence with the hotel was seamless... more

My boyfriend and I stayed in the Tower Room for a night in mid-November and everything was just fantastic.Castle grounds are beautiful, and the staff was attentive, friendly, and English-speaking. Dinner was extremely well-prepared and the waiters were so great that we didn't have to lift a finger. My only regret is that we didn't stay longer! more
