Burg Colmberg Hotel & Restaurant

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.

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

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.
