There is a restaurant, closed Monday and Tuesday, and a bistro that will be open Those days. A wonderful room with a juice and water minibar. The nicest bathroom I have ever seen and a view to put you back in time. There is a museum below in the Castle that is included in your stay along With a private garden and your own key access to the garden. Only one luggage rack in the room but we improvise. Fresh fruit and a crystal decanter of sherry waiting on the table in the sitting room. 2 glasses and chocolates. For a little while, this is our Castle and our Maserati is parked below in a safe spot. Dinner reservation in a few hours.

Our spacious balcony room had beautiful vistas of the Rhein and offered plenty of space for my mom, husband and I to be comfortable and spread out a bit. The dècor was a bit 1980s, but it was very clean and well kept. There is an elevator, so no need to worry about being stationed on the 4th level of a 200-year-old building if you aren't able to use stairs. We seemed to have enough electrical outlets to get our cameras/phones charged up without taking shifts, so that was a nice bonus. The owners are an American man, his German wife, and their adult children who all help run it (I feel so bad I don't remember their names now!). They were so friendly (and fluent in both English and German) and full of advice and ideas for experience all of the lovely sights that Boppard and the rest of the Rhein have to offer. They are who sent us to the Sesselbahn and gave us detailed information about taking the KD cruise to our next destination instead of the train. The American loves to chat about the US too, so if you want to swap stories about home, he's certain to oblige! In the mornings, they have a fabulous German-style continental breakfast with coldcuts, cheeses, brötchen, sliced breads, soft boiled eggs, yogurt, müseli, butter, jams, honey, Nutella, and -- because there is an American in the house -- peanut butter (that made Gary a happy man!). They have your table pre-set with your dishes and such when you get to the dining room and they bring you your choice of tea, coffee or orange juice. The food is self serve, so you can get exactly what you want. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming here, and I just can't reiterate enough what a pleasure it was to stay here!

The KD river cruise line is just 20' from their feont door so that is super convenient. Train station just 500 m away. Within 100 m of several bars, bakeries, gift shops, and grocery store. Has an awesome indoor pool with jets so you can swim in one place. Also has jets to massage your legs and a fountain to massage your back. Sauna is fantastic. Steam bath present too. One of the best Beat Westerns that I have been to. And I have been to a lot.

From sleeping to eating, Hotel Altkölnischer Hof succeeds on all levels…read more According to Trip Advisor, Hotel Altkölnischer Hof is the number one ranked place to stay in Bacharach. I think it's a fair assessment after recently spending three nights in the hotel. Well, not really at the hotel - I actually got a full apartment for three nights, with a California King, full kitchen, dining area, and living room. The room was massive, especially the bathroom which was more American size than European size. All this was reasonably priced for less than $100 a night, located in the heart of Bacharach. Parking is taken care of, with the hotel owning several lots around town. The service was excellent - they speak English very well, was very accommodating, and even translated the Rüdesheim Weinfest website for us. You cannot ask for a better hotel experience than at this place. Sure the rooms are nice, but is the restaurant worth going to? This was another outstanding experience. My girlfriend were able to eat here only one night, but would've loved to eat here again if we had the time. The exterior of the restaurant is beautiful and so German. I ordered the Jagerschnitzel (which included fries and a side salad) and my girlfriend ordered one of their massive salads. Both dishes were delectable - I mean just look at the beautiful pictures. The juicy Jagerschnitsel was complemented with the thick and flavorful gravy sauce, which was perfect for dipping fries in after and complemented nicely with a light side salad. My girlfriend's salad was just a menagerie of flavors - croutons, romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, blueberries, grapes and nuts in a maybe-it's-vinaigrette-maybe-it's-heaven dressing. We also ordered a bottle of Weingut Dr. Randolf Kauer 2014 Riesling which is harvest and made locally. Here I was thinking all Rieslings were sweet and we ended up getting a very balanced and immensely drinkable wine. Our entire meal, including the bottle of wine, was about 50 euros. Overall, from hotels to restaurant, Hotel Altkölnischer Hof has their act together. I couldn't recommend it highly enough.
