Our room had a balcony with the most beautiful view of the Rhine and a castle that was lit up and glowed in the night. The location was outstanding- Rhine cruise pier is right out front and the train is a block away. …

Great family hotel directly on the Rhein river :)It was the perfect location for a stopover on a Rhein trip. We were travelling with our bikes and from the beginning were welcomed in the nicest way. Super friendly and ready to help staff. If you are also travelling with your bikes, there is a room to store bikes or possibility to charge E-Bikes.Our room was facing the river side, which only costs a bit more and is completely worth it. Beautiful view just as soon as you wake up.Very comfortable bed, the best we had in the whole trip and a classic deco room than only needs to be seen as classic and elegant style :)The breakfast was rich and with a great variety and everything we tasted, including the scrabled eggs, was delicious.We would highly reccommend this hotel, it was a true pleasure to sleep here.

Very nice place to stay run by a friendly family. Beds were very comfortable with Smart TV and fast internet. Also the breakfast was quite remarkable with good coffee, fantastic selection of fresh fruit (mango, cherries, pineapple etc.) and Indian style omelette.

It was an excellent 5 nights stay in one of the Family Rooms with balcony, facing the river Rhine at Hotel Rheinnfels. The breakfast was really good and the room is of really high quality. The bed, furnitures, bathroom, all are of really high standards. I can recommend anyone who wants to spend quality time in Sankt Goat should think of staying at this hotel.

Location, location, location! This hotel is high up overlooking the beautiful Rhein river. Our room had a stunning view, but this was nothing compared with the breathtaking views from the dining room the next morning at breakfast! …

Great location. Just a heads up for future travelers: the hotel manager will tell you to hit US dollars on the credit card machine. Do not do this. Hit Euro. Your credit card company will give you a better exchange rate than this machine. I was charged $17 on top of the current exchange rate. If you do not smoke and you want to leave your windows open at night ask to be away from smokers. Their smoke will suction into your room if you leave your windows open. Room was clean. There were two managers- one originally from Germany was exceptionally nice.
