We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Burgshanke Hotel. From start to finish the service was great. When we arrived, jet lagged and much earlier than check in, they moved reservations around in order to let us check in early so we could sleep. We were only inquiring when check in was so it was a very pleasant surprise when they accommodated us early. Even in our exhausted state we could see how quaint and charming the hotel and it's surroundings were. Once we rested up we were in awe of our location at the bottom of a wisteria lined, cobblestone street leading to beautiful old churches and ancient castle ruins. It was right out of a fairy tale for us Americans! Our room was very spacious, comfortable and clean. Two things were different than we are use to in the US. The bed had a wooden divider down the middle so maybe not ideal for newlyweds but it was completely fine for us. We found the mattresses to be very comfortable. Also the shower curtain was too narrow for the shower making it hard not to get the floor all wet but the shower itself had great water pressure and a wand so we were happy. We ate dinner at the restaurant our first night and enjoyed it very much on the outdoor patio. We also loved the continental breakfast every morning especially the coffee, rolls, yogurt (with many toppings) and eggs. We found all the food to be good quality. The hotel staff spoke English well enough to make sure we had everything we needed. Overall it was one of the best places we've ever stayed. Highly recommend.

We stayed in the Burgschäncke hotel for 30 days when we first arrived in Germany in 2021. Our room was large, almost apartment sized, and even had a kitchen to cook in. We enjoy the restaurant each year on the anniversary of our time in Germany. It has a special place for us and we always love coming back to eat the best cheesy spätzle and schnitzel. The area of Hohenecken-Kaiserslautern is nice and the hotel/restaurant itself has plenty of parking around. Of course a hike up to the Burg Hohenecken is convenient as the trail starts right behind the hotel!

Nice Hotel and Restaurant. We loved the farmhouse style and atmosphere. The food and service were great. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly. Main course and dessert flavorful and good proportions. Please check this place out. It's definitely worth it.

Delicious, authentic, homemade German cuisine at its finest. We had the seasonal Spargel (white asparagus) soup, a crispy chicken salad, and beef goulash with spaetzle (egg noodles). The soup was served with bread and was simple, buttery but tasty. The salad had a homemade dressing that I could probably drink in a glass by itself. I typically don't like chicken breast as it's usually dry, but the meat was tender and juicy. The breading was light and crunchy and never got soggy. My wife had the goulash and said "it was pretty good". I've never seen her lick a plate in public. We'll definitely be back.

Outstanding place, super clean, excellent staff.The food is delicious, and I would recommend making reservations for dinner because this establishment is very popular with the locals. The breakfast buffet has all the items one can wish for. Even a queen would be satisfied with the selection.During my stay, the TV in my room broke down. The manager installed a new TV in less than an hour, I call this supervisor service.I will recommend this place to all my friends and co-workers.

We held a private event in October here for our club. What a great space! The staff from day 1 of scheduling the event were kind and attentive. They made sure that everything went off without a hitch. We can’t wait to come back as a group. I’ve already brought guests who visit several times just to eat.

Have eaten here many times over the last five years and it never disappoints. The atmosphere, especially in the winter when the fire is going. Beautifully decorated and exposed wood beams, this is a quaint place to take relatives or people new to Germany.In the fall, the goose leg with chestnut gravy is a must have. Make a reservation and order it in advance. Don’t forget to try the local garlic soup and walnut bread, you won’t be disappointed.
