fantastic situation high above the old city centre, splendid view to the Wartburg, still only a 30' walk to the Wartburg or to the Markt or Bachhaus.|Generous rooms, very friendly people, very good breakfast with all options, kitchen is very good, too.

This converted music school makes for a wonderful hotel experience. The staff were helpful and polite. The hotel grounds were gorgeous as was the building. The hotel sits at the top of a hill with beautiful views, but a fairly narrow, winding road for access. You should be okay with some cautious driving. We could see Wartburg castle clearly from our bedroom window.The hotel breakfast was typical for what we saw in Germany. The buffet included coffee, fruit, juice, deli meat, rolls, etcetera. Bacon appeared to be by request. The breakfast room overlooks a forest, and has a clear view of Wartburg castle in the huge windows. If the weather allows, the breakfast room also has a large patio.The building has a lot of stairs. The front door has a set, as does the breakfast area, half the rooms, as well as the ballrooms. My wife and I were fine dragging luggage, but this is something to remember. The Americans with Disabilities Act does not apply to 100+ year old German historic buildings.If we go to Eisenach again, this hotel is top on our list.

This hotel was an absolute gem. I came with the express goal to visit the Wartburg the next morning, and the hotel was perfectly situated at the end of a gorgeous hiking trail that led directly to the castle. Everyone was very friendly, the food at the restaurant was good, if a bit expensive, and the location/views of the hotel are truly to die for. The single rooms are quite small, but it makes sense for the type of house you're staying in. All in all, the hotel is very clean and modern while still maintaining it's personality and charm. Highly recommended, especially if you're looking to visit the castle and have a leisurely time doing it.

The hotel is a gem, on a hilltop overlooking town and the Wartburg. The pleasant walking trail thru the woods saved our visit to the Wartburg when they closed the access road (maybe the parking lot was full?)--we simply drove to the hotel, …

We stayed at this beautiful inn in June for 2 nights. It is within walking distance (20 mins through a walking path in the woods) to the Wartburg. The trail system also connects with the Drachenschlucht (a must-see in the area). …

My husband and I planned a spontaneous trip to Wartburg and booked this hotel the night before. The website is a bit old and hard to use so I booked through trip advisor. The drive up was hilariously a winding cobblestone road. …

I brought a group here and our bus actually didn't make it the first time up these very narrow switchbacks. But once you get to the top with the view of the Wartburg from some rooms and the dining area, it is worth the effort. The restaurant served great authentic German food and the rooms were sweet and comfortable.

Very nice. The food in the restaurant was of a high quality. Wonderful. The rooms were nice and comfy. The breakfast though was under par considering the potential of the kitchen. As far as the price and quality are concerned, they certainly match.

First to the positive:The view of the Wartburg is truly unique!Unfortunately, the negative points clearly outweigh the negatives:1. the pricing tends to suit a 4-star hotel, thanks to the Genius discount it was “affordable”2. the room is clearly getting old and you can see clear signs of wear and tear3. the heating was gurgling, it wasn't warm, hopefully this will work for the coming guests in the colder season.4. Cleanliness of the room was rather satisfactory, the smell took some getting used to, the wet room was absolutely small and dirty5. the friendliness of the staff at the reception is rather poorConclusion:The next stay in Eisenach will not be at Haus Hainstein!I wonder if there are any significant differences between the rooms? How else can there be so many positive reviews?

Very nice hotel, with a wonderful view of the Wartburg. If not directly from the room, then from the breakfast room.Our room, with a small separate room with armchairs, was spacious.The ladies from reception, restaurant and housekeeping were very friendly and helpful.However, access to the hotel is via small, sometimes narrow and steep streets.The breakfast was good, scrambled/fried eggs were freshly prepared upon request.

It was just great. We rounded off an eventful visit to the Wartburg with a final dinner together at the Hotel Hainstein. It was just great. Staff very accommodating. With the view of the Wartburg and the Bismarck Tower, it was difficult to head back home. We enjoyed this stay to the fullest. Many thanks again to the extremely friendly staff. Something like this doesn't happen very often. It invites you for further visits.

Great hotel for a short stay in Eisenach. The hotel is located a bit outside the city. Returning from a walk to the city is quite a challenge, because the road leads uphill. Parking spaces are a bit scarce. Accessible to people in wheelchairs, but due to the location of the facility, probably only for motorists. The common space is impressive. Some guests have the privilege of having a view of the Wartburg from their room. Good varied breakfasts. Nice restaurant with terrace and winter garden. Fast internet.

Slept 2 nights in this beautiful, historic hotel in June 2023. The road there is a bit steep and tight, but that does not detract from this great stay. A beautiful terrace with a view of a lower forest and the Wartburg (where you can walk through the forest with a brisk walk uphill in about 20/30 minutes). The rooms are very spacious and equipped with everything necessary. Lovely bed and shower. The breakfast buffet was generous and very tasty. Sometimes a bit of a long wait due to few staff when we were there. The atmosphere is quiet, cozy and homely.We will definitely come back here!!

We spent wonderful days at the Hotel Hainstein in August this year.The room was cozy and clean. The breakfast was perfect and plentiful.Despite Corona, we had a very nice time! We would be happy to come back. However, only when the political situation in this beautiful federal state has fundamentally changed.

The positive preliminary:The hotel has a really good location. If you can walk easily, it takes about 20 minutes to get to Wartburg or the city.Parking spaces are available and are free and sufficient.The breakfast buffet was good, the view of the Wartburg from the sun terrace was phenomenal.The food in the restaurant in the evening was tasty. The ladies at reception and in service were all very friendly.The negative points:Checking in from 3 p.m. is ok, but even checking in earlier without checking into a room was not possible. Checkout for this was at 10 a.m.... The room was old-fashioned, the windows hadn't been cleaned and the blackout curtain was a bit dirty. The floor creaked and overall everything was very noisy. The bathroom was quite narrow and the ventilation hadn't been cleaned for a long time. There was no room service the day after we arrived.Sockets are in short supply.Unfortunately, there is no air conditioning and when the outside temperature was over 30 degrees, even ventilation didn't help much.
