▪ The Bar ▪
Late night at the castle. Right next to the fireside lounge you'll find our cozy bar. Subdued lighting allows it to display its beauty and comfortable elegance. This expertly equipped bar will surprise you with a cache of finest drinks, such as select grappas and excellent eau de vies by Nonnino, and a range of impressive whiskeys. Enjoy a marvelous view of night-time Waldeck, chat with friends or relish a solitary nightcap. ▪ Café and Restaurant Altane ▪
An altan (rarely also: altane) is an open platform or balcony, resting on pillars or walls, on the upper level of a building. Way up at a dizzying hight, on sunny days the Café & Restaurant Altane offers a breathtaking view of the Edersee and the surrounding landscape. Glorious. And on overcast days you'll simply love the comfortable atmosphere. Relaxed, bistro-style cuisine offering "Schmeckewöhlerchen", the region's savoury tidbits. Try one of their coveted waffles, home-baked cakes, icecreams, assorted salads and delicious traditional dishes, prepared by chef Günter Hofmann. ▪ Alte Turmuhr Restaurant ▪
At the small but excellent restaurant Alte Turmuhr, chef Falko Sowinski creates delicious 3 or 4-course menus, for even the most educated palates. His specialty is the innovative combination of regional produce with exotic fare, with surprising and beautiful results. Falko Sowinski is only satisfied when he has managed to make his guests "just a bit happier". A delectable ambition - and even detectable: just take a bite of one of his very own bread creations. ▪ The Knights' Hall ▪
▪ Spa ▪
Your wellbeing is our ambition. At our small but luxurious spa area you can leave it all behind and allow yourself to be pampered.

We trust in nature's special power to rejuvenate, to replenish and to purify, at all times of the year. This is why we have chosen a line of grape-based cosmetic products. Precious plant essences result in immediately palpable and visible effects: firm and smooth skin will reward a totally enjoyable experience! The Cavern Power Station of Waldeck Several hydroelectric power plants were gradually built to generate electricity after the installation of the Edertal dam. Pay special attention to the pumped storage power station of Waldeck II. Its generators are installed in an artificially cut cavern in the mountain. It's worth a visit. The most reliable “Review” about this property is that it is in The JP Moser Hotel & Chateau Guide, and Mr. & Mrs. Moser, the authors of the guide, stay at the properties featured in The JP Moser Hotel & Chateau guide (usually for two days and two nights), in order to evaluate thoroughly the installations and services. Therefore, if a lodging establishment is featured in The JP Moser Hotel & Chateau Guide, is because it is exactly as you see it in www.jpmoser.com and you can be sure that if you book this property, there should not be any unpleasant surprises while you stay there.
