Unfortunately I have to confirm the other reviews. Rooms were well equipped, cleanliness just okay. Food in the restaurant in the evening was bad (unseasoned and without a kick), the pike perch was good at lunchtime. Breakfast good. I think the concept of just conferences doesn't work and that's why the hotel will probably change hands at the beginning of 2025. 3.5 stars from me.

Since I was only there as an event DJ, I unfortunately can't say much about the rooms. The location itself offers a really great ambience for all kinds of celebrations with food and drink and absolutely top service.

The castle is very nice, the room is less like standard.Room not clean despite being told at reception it wasn't cleaned.Bathroom very dirty from the toilet brush to the rain shower, the dust and cobwebs stuck out on the wall.Staff very unfriendly.It's actually a shame because I had imagined a stay in the castle differently. Maybe it has to do with the fact that the tenant has to leave and there is no longer any motivation.And the guests have to pay for it.
