Unique property with fascinating history - it’s most suited for conference and business use. Beautiful grounds, our room was spacious and comfortable. Staff was efficient and friendly. Be aware that access to rooms in the “Kavilier Haus” above the restaurant requires making a long walk on gravel surface and then steep climb up a curved stairway to reach the first floor. Restaurant was quite good - staff very friendly.

I appreciate this hotel every time I stay here. It has a quiet elegance that I enjoy. My room was in the Jagdschloss itself, and it was beautiful and comfortable. The bed was wonderful and I appreciated the selection of pillows. I especially loved the nearby forest and lake, and the walking trails. I plan to return to the Jagdschloss Kranichstein and I recommend it to others.

The curb appeal and woods provide a delightful setting. The spacious room had thoughtful touches that made the stay memorable and top-flight. The dining exceeded our expectations. We will remember the fresh honeycomb and Nutella spread dispenser from the breakfast and the excellent large green salad from dinner.

Interesting concept

Quaint, Historic, Had a powerful shower, and has its own charm, but not for us. Staying in a non AC room on a hot summer set of days was not comfortable, and neither was lugging our heavy suitcases up 2 flights of twisting stairs.

The annex property has no air conditioning and no elevator, someof the staff are nice and helpful, some are rude. My room was cleaned and none of the towels were replaced, had to drive to main building and ask at front desk for towels.

Ist ok wenn man nicht im Nebenhaus unterkommt

In die Jahre gekommen was das Nebenhaus angeht. Der Teppich sollte mal eine Grundreinigung erhalten. Das Restaurant ist spitze sowie auch das Frühstück.Bei beiden ist ein Spitze Service!👍 Die Location, das Umfeld und die Bar sind ebenfalls super schön.

Perfect weekend getaway for couples.

Magnificent royal hunting lodge turned museum and hotel. Quiet at night. Never crowded. Definitely eat at the Kavalierbau Restaurant on the grounds: rich selection of seasonal foods including lots of game and vegetarian options. All were delicious. Limited but good wine options.

このホテルへはフランクフルトから約30分程のドライブで到着しました。少し入口が分かりにくかったものの敷地は広くて駐車しやすく代金も無料でした。 美しい庭と雰囲気の良い建物でゆったりと滞在できました。週末には結婚式などが開かれる様子でドレスアップした方々も多く、とても華やかな雰囲気でした。
