We arrived late in the afternoon on 15 June and were greeted by Fatama the owner and what a delight. We found the hotel in Rick Steve's Germany and we kind of knew what to expect and it met and exceeded our expectations. Room was nice, shower small for large man but worked out ok. You for sure want a... More

If you want to stay in a castle tower dating from the 1300 and 1400s where you have to carry your luggage up narrow and winding stairs to rooms luxuriously decorated in bright colors you have found the right place. Bacharach is a medieval time capsule with wonderfully preserved buildings and streetscapes including a castle overlooking the town. This hotel... More

Thanks to Rick Steves and Tripadvisor reviewers, my husband and I found this B&B hotel and stayed here for 3 nights at a great rate. In our quest to experience Germany's countryside, the Rhine region and a more rural setting, Bacharach and Hotel Kranenturm did not disappoint. The hotel is a castle-like historic building right next to the railway tracks... More

On our trip we had only one day scheduled here, but we wish we could have stayed longer. It's an easy walk from the K-D river cruise stop. We were in a room overlooking the river. We had heard horror stories about train noise. Not a problem. The windows greatly block the noise. Earplugs that are provided block the faint... More

My wife and I rented an apartment for one week in Bacharach, at the north end of town. Pretty weary and tired after a long travel day from Meiringen Switzerland, we happened on to Hotel Kranenturm for dinner. As it turned out, we dined four evenings at the Hotel Kranenturm, eagerly anticipating each return. Our third dinner at Hotel Kranenturm... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our time in this wonderful 600 year old building. Our hostess Fatima was welcoming and helpful. Kurt"s food was exceptional-we simply didn't look for anywhere else to eat because of the quality of what we were served. The hotel is well located and as we had a room at the back the trains were not a problem-we... More

We stayed in a tower room for three nights. It was comfortable and larger than the usual standard european hotel room. The owner, Fatima, was one of the nicest people I have ever met. She was very helpful and went out of her way to make us feel at home. The hotel is across the street from the Rhine River... More

We booked two of the tower rooms at Hotel Kranenturm for our family for one night. The hotel and town was pretty quiet the night we stayed, but Fatima said they were expecting to be full the next few nights with a tour group. She was such a warm hostess to us, greeting us with a welcome drink, telling us... More
