The peaceful location made it an excellent place to stay, just a 10-minute walk from Erdenburg, with a restaurant nearby less than 100 meters away.

Hotel as a whole is well-maintained and well-organized, I loved it.

The double room is luxurious and big size. As for me, the location is magnificent and beautiful, in the Michelin star Restaurant. And it's nestled in a very beautiful building close enough to restaurants areas and leisure areas, the nearby forests...  

the room was well renovated and spacious with a hair dryer, a bidet, and dressing gowns in the private bathroom. the view over the gardens from the window was lovely, loved it.

Fantastic stay, as always. Exceptionally comfortable and absolutely fabulous accommodation. - Stunning setting next to a nice castle, the restaurant, and the hotel's library. - Variety of incredible options for meals....  

Its location within 15 minutes from downtown Cologne is of course interesting, but its main attraction is the Michelin Star restaurant Vendome. We travelled all the way from Cape Town to have a dinner experience in the Vendome, and it was...  

While the view acroos the country was good from our room, number 129, unfortunately it was above the yard that contained the rubbish/recycling bins which were untidy an had rubbish around them. I would suggest some form of cover so that these items cannot be seen from the guest rooms.

The room had useful amenities like a kettle and air conditioning, and the bed was comfy; the food was delicious, and the bar had a cozy atmosphere.

What an incredible hotel! We arrived early after an overnight flight from the states and were warmly greeted and immediately escorted to a sumptuous breakfast in a magnificent high ceiling room while our room was readied. The hotel allowed us to check in early so we could get much needed sleep. It is a gorgeous hotel with every amenity. While unfortunately their beautiful spa was closed during our stay (probably the reason for a great rate), nonetheless, we totally enjoyed our stay. Our room was large and comfortable with a view of Cologne in the backdrop. We had dinner in the lovely Italian restaurant in the hotel, which was very, very good.

The food is great, the rooms are very nice, the bars have live piano music (evening and afternoon), it is a real castle well animated.

The pool is a not very big.

The location here was wonderful, within walking distance to all the places we wanted to visit, and the room size on the third level was spacious.

The Hotel is very Beautefull . Rooms are very comfortable.The staff are OK. The restaurent is the best !!! Spa is very good.

All the services and facilities cost very much if you compare to the rate of the room. Sometime was shocked. For exemple 28euro Breakfast!! Internet 1 hour 10 euro's.... end...

I liked the service and quality of the accommodation. Room sizes were large and all fixtures and fittings were first class.

Food was very pricey. The shower was over the bath and you had to step up over a high bath lip to access the shower. For this quality accommodation, I expected a saparate shower.

The location here is really great 🌟! It's right next to a beautiful castle where you can enjoy some fancy dining 🍽️. I also loved the peaceful areas and the charming surroundings of the castle. It's basically like staying in a nice castle.

Hotel atmosphere is v relaxing yet sophisticated; staff are particularly helpful & friendly. Our group included 10 year old & 22 year old daughters as well as granny in her 70s. The hotel did very well to suit all our needs, from playground & pool for younger daughter to chauffeur service to and from local metro for granny. The setting of the hotel is v grand & impressive with elegant interior. 3rd floor bedrooms have lovely panoramic view of Cologne, including cathedral. Rooms felt spacious with v high ceilings & lavish bathrooms.

Lack of kettle in room proved expensive with room service cup of tea costing €14.50. Breakfast was also pricy at €28.50 for 10 year old. We didn't want to hire a car and granny found trek to and from Cologne on metro (as Bensberg is final stop) v tiring, although it was fine for the rest of us. Indeed we preferred being able to relax in evenings away from Cologne after busy days sight-seeing.

Beautiful settings, very enjoyable spa, terrific gourmet restaurant, very nice staff. Highly recommended !
