Schlosshotel Münchhausen

Its our first step stand in this hotel Just would say it's such nice old building with modern style inside and an gold area Such sample and beautiful Weather at moment to cold The service in (1570 fine dining cuisine ) was super excellent 👌👌 waiters fabulous and polite foods and drinks magnificent I would recommend this hotel as holiday trip or business trip as well Xxx

In my humble opinion, the Schlosshotel Munchhausen is the finest 5 star Schloss hotel in Germany.||Everything here is just perfect and Exquisite. From the beautiful rooms and suites in the castle, the superb grounds where you can stroll each day and to the food served at breakfast and in either the Schlosskeller, the Michelin starred restaurant or the Schwöbber bar.||My wife and I have been fortunate enough to stay at some very fine 5 star hotels both in the U.K, the USA and in Europe since retirement and no where has surpassed this magical place. We have been guests here many times now.||Also add in the brilliant and charming folk who work here and clearly love the old place.||So,if you can, give yourself a treat and stay here a a guest for a few days. ||I promise you that you won't regret it.

There are definitely a number of pro's and cons about the hotel.||We had booked for 2 nights with 2 golf tee times included at Lippische Golf and Bad Pyrmont, and 2 dinners in the Michelin restaurant.||First thing that went wrong was I didn't get it fixed through reception to get the golf tee times. I think I wrote at least 3 times. At the end I wrote to one of my connections at LinkedIn who works at the hotel, and I must admit, then it was quickly fixed. But that should not happen like this.||At arrival the man responsible for the luggage did with us a mini tour, and showed the bar, restaurant and breakfast. Not often I have seen this service and I liked it a lot.||The room was spacious and clean, very nice and comfortable.||The real dissapointment was the diner in the Michelin star restaurant. Apparently they find it highly unusual that you book that restaurant twice in a row, and the menu was 2 days the same for us. We stayed in several other hotels with Michelin star restaurants this year, and there the menu was completely different second day, as they had plenty of guests that booked dinner more than once. Maybe at Schloss Munchhausen guests only book once, because of the price. For us 2 it was more than 600 EUR per day, that is the most I ever paid in this kind of restaurant, and way too much.||Another thing about the restaurant is that I mentioned one of us had a garlic allergy. At arrival at hotel we mentioned that again, and they said they already knew about this and there was no problem. However in the restaurant the first day nobody knew about it when we mentioned it again. For a place with these kind of prices that is close to unforgivable.||I wasn't excepting too much from golf as greenfees were 40 EUR at Lippischer and 49 at Bad Pyrmont, but that exceeding my expectations. You get about 20 EUR reduction from the hotel, and both were enjoyable. On day 2 we did a tour around the Baron Von Muchhausen course just next to the hotel, and I was happy we did not play that, the stroke index 1 and 2 holes are nearly unplayable.

A magnificent castle, built in 1588, has been thoughtfully converted into a hotel. The castle's interior is elegantly decorated, and its fireplace is truly impressive. Guest rooms are available both within the castle and in charming accommodations just outside the walls. A relaxing spa and sauna are provided for guests' enjoyment. The surrounding area is delightful, offering nearby golf courses and scenic walking paths. The service is efficient and the staff are exceptionally courteous. Breakfast offers a wide and appealing selection, and the hotel restaurant is also superb. The hotel also features excellent conference facilities.

This review focuses only on the Schlosskeller Restaurant because we did not stay the hotel. Reviews that rant are either irritating or comically entertaining, and I intend this to be neither. So no jeremiads! But my principal thesis here is that the service was terrible and the food unmemorable except for the slowness with which it appearwd on our table. We were a group of six and made a reservation for 6pm on a Saturday evening. We were not offered a wine list after we seated until we asked. That's always a bad sign. My brother in law accordingly order an alcohol-free beer, and one could see the invisible calculus in the waiter's mind. He clearly recategorized us at that moment as "stingy spenders... ignore". (Admittedly alcohol free beer is a dubious choice, but one normally requires a wine list to order wine). We placed our entree orders around 6:15pm. Mine finally arrived at 7:57 pm. The pork medallions were tender and tasty, the pork belly overdone, and the klöpse pleasantly nondescript. In the meantime, a couple seated about twenty minutes after us had just finished their dessert as I tasted my first forkful of dry porkbelly. (It is mostly fat. How does a chef dryout porkbelly? Sigh). I really had wanted to like this place, but at least it provided us with a family anecdote in years to come. "Do you remember that place... "

This place is AMAZING! We had to change our travel plans for the beginning of a European trip and we found this place to stay for the first 3 days of our vacation. I can’t say enough good things about this hotel or the staff. We had our kids with us ( 7 and 10) and they couldn’t have been happier. The room ( we had a tower suite) was comfortable and cozy. The pool and SPA area was fantastic and the food was incredible. The grounds and gardens were an absolute delight to just walk around in and take amazing pictures. I have to say though that our stay was perfected by the addition of Yankuba Keita ( Yanks as he had my kids call him). He was amazing and went out of his way to make us and my kids feel special. He took time out to play cards and bocce with them and made sure that our stay truly was a memorable one. We hope to be back in the future. If you’re looking for a once in a lifetime experience place to stay you’ve found it here.

Spectacular palace which has been nicely restored. Impressive facilities, beautiful pool with spa area (sauna, steambath, etc), large rooms (take into account that part of them are in the palace itself, and others in an adjoining modern building), and a super well kept garden and golf course. The only downside is the price of breakfast (38 euros is really hefty and more the price of breakfast at a Four Seasons or Mandarin Oriental). Finally, at check in the staff (an older lady) was rather unfriendly (not so the bell boy, who was very nice). Nonetheless, the hotel offers a really good experience.

Our stay at this castle hotel was fantastic. We received a warm welcome from Mr. Keita, whose exceptional hospitality made us feel truly at home. Our air-conditioned room was impeccably prepared, and the bed was extremely comfortable. The swimming pool and sauna are also well-designed, providing a delightful experience for us. My daughter particularly enjoyed her time there. Dining at Hilmar Restaurant was a highlight of our stay. The exquisite cuisine, paired with the outstanding service from Vincent, made for an unforgettable dining experience. The combination of delicious food and exceptional service truly enhanced our visit.

This is one of those places that seems to offer much, but fails on the deliver. It is a very sympathetically updated, upscale hotel / spa formed from a historic Schloss (castle) that is situation in its own large grounds. But: - The room refurbishment has some odd omissions, the most extreme being the wardrobe having no fronts / doors ... which in major chains is usually a discriminator between the lower-market and upper-market brands (the latter normally having fronts / doors, the former not) - I had a litany of issues with technical infrastructure (a term I use to encompass HVAC, telecommunications, entertainment) which the staff were completely unable to resolve - Despite complaining, and seeing a Duty Manager, there was no attempt at "service recovery" (after a long list a failures the least they could do would be to comp. a drink!) So yet another one of these places whose opinion of themselves exceeds their abilities :-(
