An absolute gem. From the moment we arrived until check out Hotel Schloss Hornberg exceeded our expectations time and again. A beautiful property in an incredible location with history, charm and pride that shows through every facet of service from the staff. I visited for a family holiday, and our only true regret is that we didn’t schedule longer for our time here. It’s hard to believe that such a grand hotel is a family run establishment, but they run things impeccably well & the family hospitality very much lends to the already abundant charm of the hotel. Our room was larger than expected and the views of the valley below were beyond words. The food at the hotel restaurant was absolutely delicous (and their local wine and beer offerings were fantastic)...after trying it on our first night we made a point to eat there each night of our stay. (Delicious vegetarian offerings & the chef was even kind enough to tailor make a special request of spaghetti for my two year old, which was some of the best I’ve had). I truly can’t say enough about this hotel- from their station pick up/drop offs for car free guests like ourselves, to the incredible snacks they set out in between restaurant hours (Black Forest cake & pretzels!), the mints on our pillow upon arrival, the views, the castle ruins and nature trails...from start to finish every moment of our stay was unforgettable. I would highly recommend a stop here for anyone passing through the area-we are already planning our return
