9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (232 reviews)
"We loved the hotel - very modern with amazing artwork throughout the facility. The sauna was absolutely top-notch and included easy access to bathrobes and drinking water for a special touch. We ate in the biergarten twice and really enjoyed the food. The salads were excellent, and our son loved the bratwurst and schnitzel platters. Parking was easy right on site for 10 Euros a day, and the front desk provided us with a parking permit to use throughout our stay."

Burg Rabenstein

Burg Rabenstein

10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful stay at the hotel. It is breathtaking. We loved the cave tour, I would highly recommend it. Unfortunately we only spent one night, so didn’t get to explore much. The breakfast was a simple continental breakfast, but that served our family well. Don’t hesitate to book this place, it was a highlight of our trip!"
