We stayed in nice hotels on this trip. This was the best of the best. It is located near a tiny hamlet called Johannesburg which is near the Rhine River. Town does have a couple of restaurants and also a bank with an ATM machine. There is also a Shell station very close to the hotel. Located on a beautiful vineyard. Hotel is spacious, relaxing, tranquil. It is a modern two story structure. One drives through a gated entrance (no guards, left open). Parking surrounds the hotel and is easy. Next to the parking is a building housing two restaurants that have incorporated the remains of a 19th century pseudo castle. Room was very large, elegant, modern. Bathroom also large and modern. Bed was comfortable but the cot they brought in was torture. Window faced the front of the hotel. We could see the 'castle', vineyard. Hotel staff were very nice. Provided us with gifts of wine and other amenities. I had concerns booking this. We wanted to spend several days seeing the Rhine river castles and I was worried it was too far from that. Adding to my concern was that it was only 35 minutes to drive to Frankfurt airport. So I thought this was out of the way. We were pleasantly surprised to find that the hotel was a great base for exploring the best parts of the Rhine. Drive along the river was pictureque and we could easily reach what we wanted to see in a short time. The hotel is located on a slope rising above the river. Driving downhill through the small town brought us to the river's edge. There is a car ferry that runs frequently taking one to the other side so we did that one day. Another day we drove the highway on our side of the river. Both were great drives. Getting to the airport on our last day was quick and easy (helped that it was Sunday when everything is closed). FYI - for those with a rental car you can fill up at the airport just as you get to the rental return/departure area.

Beautiful location and a hotel with luxurious rooms. But the service, especially at the front desk but also at breakfast, is a million miles from the standard demanded by the price. When we visited, a wedding meant they couldn't serve us dinner. The tone of amazement that we should even ask, or that they might be able to advise on a good nearby restaurant instead, or help with suggestions for some wine tasting the next day in this famous wine growing region, was really really poor. The rudeness about being served at the bar a minute or two after six was beyond the pale. Don't worry - we had a lovely time, finding an excellent local restaurant and lots of wine tasting. The hotel just wasn't part of the fun. It needs better management.

Room was spacious, clean and up to date. We have a lower floor room, which gave us a view to the parking lot. It gave a feeling of staying in the garage, but as we did not stay in the room other than for sleep, I did not bother to change. There was a corporate event going on while we were there, so the lobby was full of people with stands. Definitely not giving the quiet countryside atmosphere we were looking for! We extended the stay without knowing, and this type of information would have been useful while we were deciding! Next time, we will go to hotel Kronenburg again.

Hotel Burg Schwarzenstein offers a truly unique experience, combining modern comfort with the charm of a historic castle. The interior design is sleek and contemporary, creating a perfect balance between old and new. The staff is exceptionally friendly and welcoming, making the stay even more enjoyable. One of the absolute highlights is having breakfast in the beautifully restored castle, with breathtaking views over the vineyards — a moment to remember! The surrounding wine region offers fantastic walking opportunities, making it a great place to unwind and explore nature. This hotel is definitely worth another visit, especially in spring or late summer, when the vineyards are in full bloom. Highly recommended for a relaxing and memorable getaway!
