Amazing castle stay and a very luxury weekend. Cant say anything negative about it. High tea and breakfast was included and we got a River view room with breath taking views. Would definitely want to come back here, again and again.

Having access to the Castle to walk around the grounds was great, we were able to go at our own pace and fully enjoy the beauty of the Grounds and the spectacular views. The areas for special occasions and events makes this place special. People seeking a private place for a wedding or function should really consider this place.

Local Favorite Castle
This is an amazing place for sure with a long rich history. There has been a lot of work done to make this place a great place to stay. This castle is located in a very small town so there are no additional shops or restaurants within walking distance. For picky eaters, this could be a bit of a challenge. On my visit, the menu located outside of the restaurant had more options than what actually was available for the dinner menu and I had my reservation set for the opening of the dinner service. My room was clean and nice with a free bottle of sparkling water. There was a bee that apparently lives in the door to the restroom but it didn't trouble me so I didn't worry. While I got the bee out of the room, it came back a couple of hours later and went directly back into the door. Funny. With the limited number of rooms and being on a weekday, I was able to take a virtually private audio tour. It was nice to get pictures without other tourists in the photos.

It’s a beautiful property and the museum is great. I had an issue with communication/lost in translation event that was unfortunate but, that was as much my fault as it was the hotel desk clerk. There could be a greater emphasis / advertisement to customers as to what is available / what comes with your stay. It seems like we just stumbled into things - could have easily not known (for example - free headphones for the museum tour for people who stay at the property) had we not had to ask about them.

I was very impressed with our stay at the Hotel Burg Reichenstein! The staff were so friendly and we had a delicious dinner and breakfast. The rooms were spacious and the bathroom shower was amazing!

Great for a babymoon!
We really enjoyed our stay here! The rooms were small but very comfortable, bathrooms were great, and staff was nice. We also had the breakfast which we enjoyed, although didn’t realize you can order from the menu and that was included int the price! That makes it amazing for the price!! Only downside was there wasn’t a lot right in the area, but it was only about a 30-40 min drive to some amazing restaurants and cute areas! Love this place and highly recommend!

Nice experience in a castle hotel
We spent one night in this castle hotel. the room is not big but clean and new. We got a room with partial river view from the window. We could hear the trains passing by but it didn't impact our sleep so much. In sum, I will highly recommend it as it is kind of experience.

Waiting forever.
The hotel was very nice and modern in a unique setting. I had heard that the food in the restaurant was excellent and anticipated a good meal. Unfortunately, the anticipation lasted for almost two hours before the single course we ordered was served. I asked the reception desk why the service was so slow. The clerk blamed it on a new inexperienced staff. Unless this staff gets it together soon I suggest bringing a deck of cards or an iPad for entertainment while enduring the long wait for food.

Staying at Burg Reichenstein was a wonderful experience! The rooms are beautifully done. The setting is gorgeous. The castle is amazing. Hotel and restaurant are beautiful. The food was fantastic. The only difficulty we had was there was no air conditioning and we had to open the windows, but there are freight trains that are going by very frequently. The hotel provided ear plugs, but it can still be very difficult to drown out the noise. Hard to sleep with all the noise and no air when it's warm.

Caution! No hot water! Ongoing problem!
Caution: This hotel has no hot water for showers! We had two rooms for one night. Neither room had hot water either upon our arrival or the next morning. We were lied to and told the reason was that too many guests were taking showers. We were also told that the water heaters were going to be replaced that day (day of our departure). Upon checkout, we were finally told the real reason...the hotel is in a 3- year battle with their construction contractor and they will not fix the hot water situation until it is resolved. It is unfortunate, because the hotel's location is beautiful and quaint. The rooms are small but adequate. But no hot water? Totally unacceptable.

It is a hotel in a castle with a magnificent view of the Rhine! Amazing experience. Pack light as there are no elevators but that seems to be quite common in German hotels. Restaurant Puricelli gets 5 stars! Best meal I had in all of Germany. Room was clean and very comfortable. Would not hesitate to recommend!

Good place for stop-over.
Comfortable hotel that was easy to find, excellent check-in and staff. One night stopover at a quiet time of year. There where not that many guests so parking on site was easy, space is limited so it could be a problem; there were several cars parked on the road leading to the hotel. After a long drive we had an excellent evening meal there and the breakfast was limited but saved having to stop on the next leg of our journey. Did not have time to explore the area

Better for a visit than an overnight stay
Disappointing given expectations. Nice bathroom fixtures but lukewarm shower. TV and in-room tablet didn't work. Breakfast was mediocre and expensive - bad combination. Note - lots of noise from frequent trains passing below, as well as from restaurant guests in the courtyard.

Dear Sir or Madam, Thank you for your rating, we are very sorry to read that we did not meet with your expectations and sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. If the TV as well as the tablet did not work, we would have appreciate a notice during your stay to respond to any possible complaints. In regards to the background noise by the trains: We can neither change the frequency of the trains passing through the Rhine Valley nor the noise, which they cause. Unfortunately, we cannot reverse the challenge of your last visit with us, but we hope that you will give us the opportunity to convince you of our service.

Wonderful hotel with terrific views of the Rhine
This hotel makes a wonderful impression throughout. The staff was courteous, attentive and friendly and the rooms were spacious and fresh and beautifully updated. The castle and grounds are very interesting and fun to explore, including the antler museum. (Parents should ensure that children are always close by). The restaurant served regional specialties and I would happily recommend it and the hotel. The only downside is that taxis are not standardly available at the small Trechinghausen train depot. It is a real challenge walking uphill to the hotel with luggage so make sure you make taxi arrangements beforehand if not traveling by car.

Great castle hotel on the Rhein.
Amazing hotel built into a 1000 year old castle. Room was lovely with a great view of the Rhein and the castle (Ask for the Wedding Suite). Service was great, food was great. Take a tour of the castle if you have time. Loved it.

The castle has an ideal location overlooking the Rhein River and both our rooms in the adjacent building had river views. We spent time exploring the castle and grounds that anyone may visit for a small fee Euro 5.50. Be sure to take the path before the drawbridge to climb for more views. We ate at Puricelli Restaurant - the food was good but expensive. Although there was plenty of room around the table for serving, my nieces plate was whisked in front of my face to serve her.

Historic locaction
Great hotel next to the castle Burg Reichenstein. Upscale hotel with great views of the Rhein river or castle. The rooms are comfortable but not for longer stays as there are no closets or drawers or even a table. The bathrooms are interesting, beautifully done but toilet, shower and sink are separated; it's a bit odd to have the shower in the room/hallway with only a glass door so no privacy at all. Bed was comfortable and we loved the old world charm such as tube and knob light switches. No elevator so be prepared to carry your luggage. The castle is absolutely worth a visit but I think the admission fee of Euro 5.50 should be included in your room price.
