Castle Hotel Auf Schoenburg was without a doubt the very nicest place I've ever stayed. I have stayed at many beautiful hotels and Inn's but this was like a fairytale! If you have the chance, you should jump at the chance to stay here!!!! It was magical!!!! My husband and I loved it so much we didn't want to leave. The staff was wonderful, the food was delicious, the rooms were amazing, the views were beautiful!!! You truly feel like royalty!!! I would give this place 10 stars!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We spent 3 night at the castle. We had a tower room with outstanding views so high over the Rhine river. We had wine on the balcony watching the boats at night. What a romantic place to stay. I do want to let you know, there are a lot of stairs to the tower, and quite a steep hike up the cobble stone to get to the castle. All so worth it but wanted to mention for anyone with disabilities. Food and service were the best experience. Thank you for a wonderful stay! The Clemens from Illinois

"Our stay at castle Hotel Auf Schoenburg was outstanding. The setting was beautiful, the service excellent, and the food delicious. We had planned to eat at the hotel only one night during our stay, but ended up eating there all three nights. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a get-away weekend. It is a little quiet, so not the place for people looking for lots of activities or music."

"Castle Hotel Auf Schoenburg is absolutely fantastic. This place is just magical. The staff is courteous and helpful with typical German efficiency (I have special respect for the poor bellman who transported our luggage from our car to our tower room with a smile). This is the "Princess Bride" castle come to life, and it is a once in a lifetime experience. The meals were excellent and every room has a fairytale view. The town below is historic and worth taking time to explore and this is a good central location for a driving tour of the Rhine Valleys many other castles. Believe it or not, the brochure doesn´t do this place justice. It´s even better in person. My wife and I just wandered around the grounds in awe. Keep in mind that this is not some kind of cheesy Disney getaway -- it does not have 24 hour room service or a waterslide. Instead it is an authentic medieval castle, beautifully restored, with many modern touches. We recommend this to any couples with good taste that are looking for something different."

"We visited Castle Hotel Auf Schoenburg in May of 2008. The staff is exceptionally helpful and friendly, the food is spectacular, and the service is beyond expectations. This alone made it an amazing stay. Shortly after check in we met our tour guide who took us on a tour of his vineyard. He also provides many tidbits about the area. We so enjoyed the wine tasting and experience. If you are looking for lasting memories - include Castle Hotel auf Schoenburg in your travel plans."

"We could only stay there one night as they were fully committed the rest of the weekend with a Medieval Festival. The town of Oberwesel was very charming and we loved it.
We did the special chefs dinner and, to our delight, it was asparagus season. The chef had a fantastic spargel menu and we enjoyed it very, very much. Although everything about the hotel is elaborate, the service really is so personal that guests dont feel any pressure. It was like staying with warm, kind relatives who let you do your own thing.
Our room is featured in their brochures (the one with the hidden door to the bath) and it was spectacular. The views were breathtaking and the room itself was very spacious and comfortable with a terrific balcony and a very nice cross-breeze.
We would have LOVED to spend more time there but it wasn’t an option. The hotel was all that we could have hoped for and we would recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful place with luxurious amenities."

"We had stayed and Castle Hotel Auf Schoenburg several times five years ago, and were very pleased that the hotel is as good as it always was. We had the added pleasure that the weather was good and we could dine outside on the terrace with that wonderful view of the river. The service at Schoenburg was excellent, and the setting could not be better. We will be back next year."

"Our stay at Castle Hotel Auf Schoenburg was very relaxing. Unfortunately, we stayed in March when the weather was not the best. Also, it seems we stayed during a weekend when nothing was open in the outlying area and neighboring towns. We wanted to take a cruise on the Rhine River, but once again the weather was not the best.
The reason for our stay was my wife´s birthday. I wanted to take her to a castle for a romantic getaway. The Catle Schoenburg had all the potential, but I was naive to think the weather would cooperate. If we were to return during the summer, I would have no regrets.
One suggestion that I think would help is the packaging of a weekend getaway for couples. Also, I think many companies would love the idea of retreating to a castle for seminars and other business meetings."

"We were treated like royalty! The highlight of our two weeks in Europe was easily Schoenburg. Warm, inviting, small touches that make you feel special. We can´t thank the staff enough."

"I can safely state that our stay at the Castle Hotel Auf Schoenburg was the high point of our two weeks in Austria and Germany. The accommodations were very comfortable and extremely romantic. The staff was very considerate and cooperative, and the restaurant was excellent. We can (and have) recommended this hotel to our friends."
