Burg Colmberg Hotel

An amazing experience to be able to spend a night in a medieval castle. The castle is truly a gem of history- rooms are large and well appointed. Breakfast buffet was good as well and the dining room had a great view. We had dinner in the restaurant - very good food and service. The owner was very nice and very interested in our satisfaction. The grounds have a herd of deer who are very friendly- we were able to get up and close with them. Upon checkout, the owner gave us a nice book detailing the history of the castle- nice memento. I would highly recommend.

Staying in a hotel with so much history is definitely a privilege and we were very happy to find this gem of a hotel when we were planning our trip. The castle is just as imposing as it looks in the photos and has the most beautiful view of the village and countryside. What makes it even more magical are the deer running around and feeding in the grounds below the castle. I understand it has a very good restaurant, but, unfortunately, when we stayed it was closed due to summer holidays. Luckily, there was a little country inn just near the entrance to the castle so we had a good meal anyway. Our biggest mistake was that we chose a standard room. We normally go for superior but the rates of the hotel are quite high and as we were only staying for a stopover (1 night), we unfortunately chose the standard which was a very small room on the top floor, with small windows and a slanting ceiling which I have come to hate. It makes me feel claustrophobic when it's just above my head. Sleeping in such a room, of course, did not make us feel like kings, as one other reviewer writes. So, if you do choose to stay in this authentic, wonderful castle, I highly recommend that you pay that extra amount to get a front room, on a lower floor. The view from one of those rooms must be spectacular. Breakfast was good and the sitting area very pleasant. There 's also lovely sitting spots all around the castle. The one thing I found strange are the very limited reception times and the fact that one can check in only after 4pm. When one is driving from far, from early morning, having to wait till 4p to check in seems somewhat unreasonable to me. Other than that, we highly recommend a stay and, with it, of course, a drive to Rothenburg ob de Tauber which is very close by.

Very quirky hotel. Our dogs were welcome. It really is like living in a castle with antique furniture and many persian rugs. Took quite a while for me to find our room, even after staying for two nights. One of our dogs is an excellent room finder irrespective of where we are staying. Only needs to be shown once so I followed her. Evening meal was very good, and there was a great outdoor area where we could sit and have a drink.

Our daughter got married June 2024 at the Burg Colmberg. We had over 100 guests from all over the world. Everything went smoothly from the check in to the event itself. Staff did awesome job taking care of the guests while chef was proudly serving his food at the buffet. Champagne and Appetizer reception on the Terrace with the gorgeous view of the town was spectacular. Everyone loved the food and the hospitality they have received during the entire weekend. Our rooms were perfect. I do wish that the Sundays breakfast buffet was served until 11 am and not 10am, but we made it work for an additional charge. Huge thank you from the bottom of our hearts all the way from across the ocean. Family A

Stayed one night at the cheapest rate. Fantastic place but a room with a view will be more expensive. At the price would have expected a little more luxury but the common areas are very attractive. Dinner was average & not up to the rest of the hotel. Note that the restaurant & breakfast hours are somewhat laid back so challenging if you need an early start or you arrive late. Probably best to use the hotel as a base for visiting the area but leave enough energy to climb up the steep hill.

We had a wonderful stay and were very comfortable! It is so special to stay in a castle and it was cool exploring the castle and surroundings. Breakfast had a wide range of options and a gorgeous view from the breakfast room. It is definitely an experience I would recommend to anyone.
