The location is great and the staff is wonderful. We had free parking for our car, which is a serious perk for European hotels. Our room over-looked the river and afforded a nice view. The restaurant is excellent and the staff was also great for recommending other restaurants in the city. This is an older hotel and may lack the... More

Great location right on the Rhine River and about a15 minute walk over the bridge to the town of Koblenz.The hotel is rated 3 star and we had a difficult time understanding this one.Maybe because the food was very good and as you were eating on the patio you were overlooking the Rhine.Parking is available as for the room it...

Although rooms are dated, location made up for it and the friendly staff. We had a car and parking was not a problem. Our rooms overlooked the Rhine which was great, even in winter. Breakfast was good even for our teenagers appetite. One night we ate in the restaurant and had a great meal, the food was very tasty and... More

You really can't beat the location for it's beauty alone. It is right on the river and, if it had not been for the scaffold outside our room, we would have been able to see the Rhine. Not sure of ist's convenience to the city center or sights as we only stopped in for the evening on a our way... More

We picked this hotel because we were doing a tour of the Mosel and Rhine and wanted if possible to stay overlooking them. The hotel is about a 30 minute walk to town which is a little far. We had upgraded to a balcony room and the room on line looked lovely. This was not what our room looked like.... More

We had a nice big room, very clean and comfortable if a bit dated, with a large balcony overlooking the river. Nice staff. It is a short walk into Koblenz itself. We normally try to find somewhere else to eat supper, because we get to usually eat breakfasts in the hotels where we stay, but there was not much within... More

The hotel has a wonderful location – Rhein view, quiet old-traditional German street. It takes 30 minutes to walk to the center, so consider this if you want to spend several days and need to be in the center. We stayed in Koblenz for 1 day, and we made this round walk one time, were impressed and extremely happy, but... More

This lovely inn is located on the Rhein River across the bridge from Koblenz. The location was perfect for us, as it was quiet and on the walking path. It was a pretty and easy 10 minute walk into the old part of Koblenz, across the bridge. (The cab from the train station was 7 euros. ) Klaus greeted us... More

We stayed here for one night only. Claus Merkelbach was extremely friendly and welcoming, and speaks enough English. We had a "double room with river view and balcony". The balcony was the best thing about the unit. If you are lucky enough to have good weather, it is very enjoyable to sit on the patio and watch the activity on... More
