Pretty setting but little sleep.
Pros:

The setting and lobby area are beautiful. The staff were wonderful and greeted us with a delicious glass of sparkling wine. Also, the bistro was very tasty!

Cons:

The room was very dated and did not match the entry area. The bed was hard as a rock, making it almost impossible to sleep. Also, the hotel is over a busy flight path.

5つ星の価値はハード面以上にスタッフの質が決定的だと思うが、その点からも、このホテルは5つ星に相応しい。
Pros:

素晴らしいスタッフ、サービス、そしてもちろん建物

Cons:

あえて言えばスタッフの90%は素晴らしい。しかし100%ではない。

Sehr enttäuschend
Pros:

Die Betten und die Kissen waren miserabel, so dass wir nicht in den Schlaf finden konnten. Auch die Bedingungen beim Duschen im Bad waren vorsintflutlich, da in der sehr engen, erhöht gebauten Duschkabine nur ein sehr schwacher Duschstrahl / Rinnsal aus dem Duschkopf kam und die Wassertemperatur kaum zu regulieren war und leider nicht auf "kalt" einzustellen war (eher deutlich zu heiß). Auch mangelt es an einer funktionierenden Klimaanlage (verbaut war nur ein lärmendes "Ungetüm" von Wärmegerät an der Wand unter dem Außenfenster).
Leider konnten wir uns auf unserer langen Reise von Sylt nach München hier nicht wie erhofft im Rahmen eines schönen, exklusiven Zwischenstopps erholen und waren insgesamt sehr enttäuscht.
Wirklich schade und nicht adäquat für ein 5-Sterne-Schloßhotel!

Cons:

Betten, Kissen, Raumklima, Beleuchtung im Zimmer, Raumgefühl, Wasserdruck und -temperatur in der Dusche

Unerträgliche heiße Zimmer.
Pros:

Tolles altes Schloss, aber leider keine moderne Haustechnik.

Cons:

Das Hotel hat für Sommertage keine ausreichende Klimaanlage. Die Temperaturen in unseren drei Nächten betrugen bei voller Klimaanlage 27,28 und 29 Grad im Raum. Insofern war an Schlaf eher nicht zu denken.

Je ne recommande pas un sejour dans cet hotel
Pros:

L’emplacement est tres beau. Le chateau et la parc sont magnifiques

Cons:

Le personnel manque gravement de professionnalisme. Ils étaient a la limite de l’insolence quand ils ont oublié notre réservation au restaurant gastronomique « everybody lnows that a fine dining restaurant closes before 8pm ».
Ils n’ont pas reagi quand tous les jours nous leur indiquions que la télévision de notre chambre ne fonctionnait pas.
