Hotel Burg Abenberg

A gem of a find en-route from Austria to the UK. The village is very quiet with very little to offer, but if you want a place to stay the night with exceptional dining, don’t miss this place. We had booked a room in the guest house part of the hotel which is on a lower part of the grounds, on the village square, not so good if you don’t want to do stairs, but we were asked if we’d like to move into the tower building instead. This is in the main courtyard on the upper level. It was a lovely room with a 6ft bed. The rooms further up the tower would have a better view of the surrounding countryside but we were more than happy. The surprising thing about this establishment is the dining experience. The hosts Christian and IIona Schneider, have a long history in the hotel, food and beverage and cruise ship hotel management and housekeeping department, so they know what they are doing. Dinner was EXCEPTIONAL! A self taught chef who learned his trade watching the last chef though he was there originally only as kitchen staff. It was asparagus season and wow, it didn’t disappoint. The waiter-though I’d be more inclined to call him a Maitre D, was utterly charming and knew his stuff. Breakfast is fantastic with a buffet style offering. Coffee is served by your waitress. Everything about this establishment is wonderful. If you need a place to stay for a night on a trip through Europe, do not miss out on here.

Wir haben uns wohlgefühlt von der ersten bis zur letzten Minute! Das Turmzimmer ein romantisches Kleinod mit tollem Ausblick, viele Infos zu Burg und Historie von den supernetten Betreibern! Meine Verlobte wurde mit Geburtstags-Cremant überrascht und das 4-Gänge-Menu á la Bonheur!! Das argentinische Entrecote zum Zunge schnalzen und durchgehend zart und rosa! Wir sind so angetan, dass wir in zwei Wochen gleich wieder hinfahren werden!👍👍

Das Schloss- bzw. Burghotel Abenberg ist wahrlich das erste Haus am Ort. Die Burg thront nicht nur über der kleinen Altstadt, sie liegt auch weithin sichtbar in der schönen Landschaft. Das Hotel ist liebevoll in die alten Gebäude integriert. Die Zimmer sind schön eingerichtet und gut ausgestattet. Das Restaurant ist Abends, wie zum Frühstück zu empfehlen. Am besten ist aber natürlich die tolle Atmosphäre.
