Romantik Hotel Schloss Rheinfels

The hotel is beautiful with a spectacular view of the Rhine River and Sankt Goar/Sankt Goarshausen. We stayed in the Villa with a river view room. The room/bathroom felt dated, but the room was spacious and the bed comfortable. We could hear people in the room above us, especially in the bathroom. But the view and location were so lovely. The customer service at the hotel and restaurant were excellent. We especially enjoyed the extensive breakfast buffet and the view from the castle dining room. We really enjoyed our stay at Schloss Rheinfels.

Our hotel room was top class. The furniture was German Classic and everything worked perfectly. The bathroom was very modern and super clean and functional.

We flew into Frankfurt and drove to Hotel Schloss Rheinfels for a gorgeous stay on the Rhine. We booked the Tower Suite and the view was spectacular. Dinner at the on site restaurant was fine dining with an extensive wine list. The staff spoke English which helped tremendously. Definitely recommend a stay for easy access to the town and activities. Wish we had taken advantage of the spa but we were too tired from traveling. The tower suite was perfect for a luxury stay. Huge bathroom with bathtub, living room with balcony, and a comfortable bed. Great stay!

With only 1 night we didnt get to enjoy all the amenities but highly recommend this hotel for a luxury stay on the Rhine with a beautiful view. Staff were kind and spoke English making our stay very comfortable. Bed was comfortable and the view is worth the stay alone! Dinner in the restaurant was fine dining so portions were small but delicious. Extensive wine list too!

Our room was in a building that was separate, and more modern than the castle. There was a sort of Fawlty Towers-ish aspect to our check-in...very pleasant but a lot of fumbling around with who was in what room, which baggage went where, ans when we got tom our rooms it appeared that the gentleman who was showing us to our rooms had forgotten the keys. or thought we had already been given them. Or something. But once we got past that, everything was very good. Our room was very big and well, but sort of sparsely furnished. |We ate in the hotel restaurant, which was in the "main" building, up a flight of stairs. It was very good.

Our room had the most wonderful view of the parking lot. Staff had a very typical German attitude towards guests. Would not recommend this place and certainly would not stay here again. It was my experience that the place is not child friendly, family friendly, or even just friendly.

We are humiliated by the waitress this morning in the restaurant. Even we said we don't know German and asked if she could answer in English, she insisted on answering in German and behaved us rudely. I would easily say that from their behaviours that they don't welcome non German speakers and will never visit this hotel again

We had a great stay at the Burg Hotel and will stay there again. Breakfast was delicious and the staff was awesome. The rooms were clean and well maintained. We had dinner in the downstairs restaurant and the waitress was great. The selection of food was slightly less then we would have liked, but the food was good.

We made a stop at this castle in St. Goar while we were doing a cruise on the Rhine River. It was spectacular and well kept up. Beautiful photo spot and a lot of history. They have an adorable little gift shop on site too. I was happy to find it, since I collect magnets everywhere I go.

This is the best 11th C castle that I have been to in Germany. There is no awfully narrated audio tour and no bored guides leading you through the passages. Its self guided so you go at your own pace. It is large and has a lot of areas including secret or dark passages that you can explore on your own. Bring a flashlight. Seriously. Though my iphone with flashlight app worked just fine. It has some new areas such as the museum but mostly this is a very well preserved ruin. Expect to spent 2-3 hours here. There is a tram from town that will take you up but its no more than a 15 min walk. We did it pulling our luggage and leaving it at the ticket booth while we explored. The kids will love this place. Oh and there is a restaurant there too in case anyone in your group would rather drink. Have fun.

This place is so awesome. I didn't actually stay in the hotel part though because I didn't know about it; I wish I would have. The castle ruins are great though! It's huge and you can spend hours here just walking around the grounds. A couple of the hallways were very dark, if not pitch black, which didn't stop me from going through them. Until I discovered huge spiders chilling on the very low ceilings in the pitch black rooms! I ran outta there like a bat outta hell! But most of the castle is light enough to see where you are going. This was my favorite castle to explore out here, despite that it is in ruins! I think that is what adds the charm. There is also a gift shop, very tiny "museum" room, hotel and restaurant in here. A must see.

We dined here our last night in St. Goar. We had already had so many amazing meals but we felt the need to splurge and dine up at Burg Rheinfels. We were pleased to have walked in without a reservation and still be seated by a window with a beautiful view. I imagine that is uncommon during high season, but we were very pleased. We dined at Auf Scharffeneck. The food was good, but it was not where I thought it should be at that price point. The carpaccio was magnificent, definite high point. I had a fascinating tomato soup with cream cheese balls, I'm still not sure what to think of it. My fiancée had the parsley root soup which was delicious. We thought things were going to continue to go well, but we were only mildly pleased with our entrées. I wanted the venison, but they were out, I went with the lamb with ratatouille and potato gratin. My fiancée went with the veal steak, which I enjoyed more than he did and I enjoyed it more than my own dish... We knew very little about the dining experience here prior to our dinner. Like I said, it wasn't bad, it just didn't wow us like we really hope to have been. Service was wonderful and friendly and the restaurant is lovely and it goes without saying, but the grounds and views are stunning.

We had a lovely time walking the Rhine recently, the Germans we met were all very friendly and helpful, and we ate in lots of wondeful local pubs and inns - but this grandiose place was NOT one to recommend. The staff were arrogant and rude, the atmosphere unwelcoming, and it was very over-priced. Avoid!

It was bit odd for sure staying as a single person in hotel with the name "romantik" in it. I stayed here in the summer of 2014. The hotel itself is a new building on the site of the ruins of castle and connected to it and the view of the Rhine is amazing. My room had a balcony and the most wonderful view of the Rhine. I could have spent hours sitting there watching the ships go around the bend in the river and I did pull out my laptop and do just that. But I also roamed around the castle ruins with my friends I was travelling with and had a great time exploring the area around here. I did get any romance but it was lovely staying here.

We were exploring the castle and decided to stop in for lunch. Food and service were great. Desserts were excellent.

This is a truly awesome hotel overlooking the Rhine. I recommend the half pension that includes a delicious gourmet dinner in a beautiful dining room. Be sure to make reservations and request a table next to the window. The view of the vineyards, the town of St. Goar and the boat traffic on the Rhine below is a memory you will cherish. There is also an outdoor patio entered through the gift shop that is a perfect spot for an afternoon snack and/or beer while enjoying the fantastic view. The buffet breakfast is as good as you will find anywhere. Our room was in the annex and was spacious and comfortable. There is a small buffet available in the annex with drinks and pastries. Parking and WiFi are free. Careful exiting the parking lot; it is in the middle of two blind corners.
