Sababurg is a castle ruin in the process of being rebuilt. It is located on a copse with nice views over scattered woodland with Prszewalski horses, aurochs and deer. It is family run and offers the following spectacular amenities: A splendid quite "modern" 6 course meal in the restaurant including wine pairings and drinks before dinner for an extremely affordable...

I think the title says it all, we stayed here for one night as part of a european motorcycling holiday last month. We had spent the day travelling through the forests of Germany to the castle as this was the icing on the cake. The standard of the room in the turret was out of this world and ticked all... More

We have been on a major trip throughout Germany and this was a real highlight. Our room in the tower was lovely, with light rose touches throughout. A special surprise arrived with the turndown at night. Be aware that tower rooms have no lift. We had light luggage, so no problem. They are also under construction, so things may not... More

We traveled up to the castle for New Year's Eve stay with our 2 girls. The dining for that weekend was unparalleled - superb! Fresh venison, fresh trout, fresh everything! Have rarely eaten at a finer gourmet restaurant! Local wines of course went with the meal. We had 2 adjacent rooms because we had small children (3 and 9) -... More

Anyone who down-rates this family-run operation is a curmudgeon and an ignorant one! I have stayed here often and lived just around the hill for three years. The local folk come here to marry if they want a special memory -- otherwise they pop a cork at a local city hall (Rathaus). Nearby is Hann Munden and Hofgeismar; two of... More

This hotel has many happy memories for me, mainly due to its idyllic location in the countryside, on top of a hill in a former stately home (it would be pushing the boat out to call it a castle though, whatever their website suggests). There's a fine entrance through a ruined arch along a cobbled lane, where one reaches a... More

I suppose after a grueling flight from SFO to Frankfurt, and then a long drive to Sababurg, anything would have looked good. However, when we arrived at Dornroeschenschloss, my husband and I were unprepared for the beauty of the area, the loveliness of the castle and the warm and welcoming staff. Our room was perfect and overlooked the beautiful, lush... More

If you travel the fairy tale road in Germany this is a place you wouldn't want to miss. On top of a hill overlooking woods and meadows the sleeping beauty castle hotel is the perfect place to spend your night. Excellent service and happy faces to look after you, excellent dinner served by a lady that might have served Aurora... More

Location, location, location - this place has it in spades. Who can resist staying in a castle turret, after all? An idyllic setting, complete with an animal reserve down below. Plus - as the name suggests - they say it was the inspiration for Sleeping Beauty, which is doubtless what attracts many of the visitors. The good points? Its cleanliness.... More

It takes a little effort to find this place, but it is well worth it. After a long drive along country roads, we decided we had found the place when we saw a tour bus parked in the parking lot. We were a little nervous about staying at a tour bus stop, but our fears were unfounded. (The bus had... More
