Als engagiertes Mitglied von Slowfood setzt man dort auf Produkte, die in der Region heranwachsen und aus ökologischer Erzeugung stammen. In der traditionsverbundenen ländlichen Gourmetküche des "Paulus" entstehen daraus nah an der Natur belassene und gleichzeitig raffinierte Gerichte. Ein besonderes Faible hat die langjährige Vegetarierin Sigrune Essenpreis für das Kochen mit Wildkräutern und essbaren Blumen. Thomas A. Nickels steht für außergewöhnliche Weinkultur, für Spaß und Vielfalt mit Spitzenweinen aus aller Welt. Diese kredenzt er seinen Gästen bevorzugt glasweise, garniert mit kenntnisreichen und unterhaltsamen Geschichten aus seinem schier unerschöpflichen Wissensfundus. Im ersten Stock des Landgasthofes befindet sich auch das Sigrune Essenpreis Wein & Genuss Zentrum. Die Angebotspalette an diesem alltagsfernen Platz mit seinen Themenräumen umfasst "Kulinarische Plauderei - Weine & Speisen mit allen Sinnen erleben", "Bungee Jumping für die Sinne - ein Degustationsseminar mit Weine & Speisen Workshop" oder "Die Ess-Klasse". Der Landgasthof Paulus bewirtschaftet auch eigene Gärten. Derzeit sind dies "Der Hochbeetgarten" und "Der Paradiesgarten in Sitzerath".

Most lovely Hotel!…read more I don't like to add reviews for Hotels, but this Hotel deserves 5 Stars. Clean, updated, quite, comfortable rooms with great views. Updated bathrooms. 2 Pools, 1 indoor and 1 outdoor infinity pools. Some of the best breakfast's we had, with a grand variety of breads, bread rolls, meats, fishes, fruits, pate's, etc. - Made to order breakfast was served hot, tasty and prepared with love. Check you the picture of my decaf Cappuccino. - The staff was very professional and friendly and we enjoyed a few nights at their bar, where they took utmost care of crafting drinks and drafting fresh beers to perfection. We had dinner one night in their restaurant and all of us were very very satisfied with the presentation, taste and variety. The local wines they offer are superb! It takes 10 minutes to walk to down town and the views from the hotel are wonderful. Wonderful Hotel and Restaurant!!!

Despite having just 36 rooms, there are a surprising amount of amenities including an indoor swimming pool. When we were there we had it to ourselves - extremely romantic as the staff lights big pillar candles and there's a view of the city through big glass doors. Our room was gorgeous - large, with a sitting area, lots of storage and a great bathroom with rainfall shower. Because its a bit outside the center, it's a 15 minute walk to the city proper for touring and dining. There is limited parking on site (maybe 10-12 spots). During the week dinner is served but on weekends, it's bar service only. If its sunny, there is a huge terrace overlooking Trier but it was chilly, so we sat in the comfy lounge. As can be expected, the wine list is full of local Moselle Valley treats at fair prices. Breakfast is included in your stay and includes homemade pâté, local cheeses and cooked eggs to order. Staff is young, enthusiastic and charming. I'd stay again in a heartbeat!
