It's an old building in the city of Neustadt an der Weinstraße. It dates back to the 1500 in some…read moreparts and is a beautiful old Fachwerk building. It has only 6 rooms and a nice breakfast room, bar and the one Michelin starred restaurant Urgestein. The rooms are cozy and have a nice bed. The room is fairly basic but nice. It's a hotel without a lift and the rooms are on the second floor with steep narrow staircase. It's a hotel where there is tiny reception and it's closed most of the time until you ring the doorbell. There is also no parking here and there is a car park very close by you can use. I really enjoyed my stay here and the staff were super friendly and welcoming. I would come back here any day.

My husband and I have lived in Germany for 10 years and we aren't too fond of most German red wines…read more(personally prefer Spanish and Italian) and we like the Alsace white wines better than most comparable German ones.. BUT, we love the German Weinstrasse for the beauty of the villages and scenery. We happened upon Weingut Helmut Schreieck last fall and they were having a wine tasting. We discovered a very nice peppery Merlot and a divine Sauvignon Blanc! We were very impressed :) We went back today to restock. It is possible to stay there as they have B&B type rooms available. Might need to try that someday.
