I was in Frankfurt on business, when a high school friend, now living in Frankfurt, suggested we…read morecheck this place out. When we walked up on the place, I was unsure if we were in the correct location. Once using the speaker box, someone answered the door and escorted us the lounge. We walked through the foyer and were pleasantly surprised as we entered the lounge. IT WAS BEAUTIFUL, like something staged out of a movie. The velvet seating, mirrors, the bar, it was simply beautiful. The pictures really don't do it justice...YOU MUST GO! Now...my opinion of the cocktails!! Exquisite! We were hosted at the bar by a lovely gentlemen with a sparkling personality, while the manager frequently checked in on us as it wasn't too busy. The cocktails were delicious! I usually stick to wine or my signature drink made with tequila but I experimented as this guy was in FACT talented and skilled. I am sure you will love the atmosphere, the service, and the cocktails! ENJOY and CHEERS! I'd love to go back next time Im in the area.

The food quality is really nice and the service was fast, gentle and reliable. the table honestly was a little too big, avoiding an easy interaction with the person on the other side.

In any case, dominated by a massive staircase cum atrium. The major drawback of this place is that the building, while impressive on many fronts, does not necessarily lend itself to seating diners. Tables are kind of sprinkled about and capacity is small for the size of the place. Nonetheless an attractive atmosphere. The food is sort of Hessian cuisine on steroids. Or maybe Italian cuisine with lots of Hessian/German twists. I've not suffered any disappointments there and the quality generally matches the price points. There's a bar upstairs that draws mostly the after work banker crowd. If you're allergic to human beings in suits as some of the German reviewers seem to be, then head on down to the Bahnhof or go to a student bar in Bockenheim. All in all a good place for a date or corporate entertainment.

Tucked away in the hills that overlook the Rhine, you'll find Kloster Eberbach. It is stunning in…read moreits serenity and impressive to think that it was built long ago without the help of modern construction. You may recognize it from the 1986 Sean Connery film "The name of the Rose". My family is emigrated from a city just down the road and that used to be a part of the Monastery's estate, and I'm fortunate to stay in touch with the relatives that stayed behind. On Christmas day last year when everything is closed (and the parents wanted to tend to the Christmas roast -- think the same fuss as a Thanksgiving turkey), we young 'uns headed down to the Abbey to check things out. The buildings were closed, but the grounds were open, and we and some other locals meandered around, finally winding up by the sheep and goats. One little guy kept poking his head out to have his chin scratched, and I was happy to oblige him. I'll look forward to my next visit, hopefully on a day when the place is open so I can tour it and learn more about the Abbey's history!

This was my first time visiting a previous monastery dwelling and was surprised to know that only…read more120 monks lived on such a beautiful estate. I came here with a group from work for a team building adventure. We started out breaking into teams for a scavenger hunt around the monastery; then hiked up the top of the hill to see a breath taking view of the countryside and had a light snack at the summit; then returning for a formal tour of the monastery followed by wine tasting in the cellar; and finally we had dinner here at their restaurant to wrap up our 5 hour excursion. Today this place is used for festivals and concerts but you get an appreciation of the dedication and effort of a few men that resulted in an amazing historical landmark. There was also a movie filmed here in the 1980's by Sean Connery. This was a humbling and fantastic experience all rolled into one great adventure that I would highly recommend as a must see place that you will appreciate.
