The story
The Rheingau's finest wine list, in a riverside park
In the heart of Hattenheim — one of the Rheingau's most quietly beautiful wine villages, with its half-timbered lanes, ancient castle, and the baroque St. Vincent Church — the Kronenschlösschen sits within a private park with the Rhine at its border. The castle-style building, recognised as a 4-star gourmet hotel, has been a family enterprise for decades, and the combination of deeply personal service, 29 rooms of genuine character, and what Gault Millau has called Germany's finest wine list gives it a reputation that goes well beyond its size.
The Rheinsaal is the heart of any wedding celebration here: seats up to 86 at beautifully set tables, with the adjacent Yellow Salon ready for a bar, DJ, and a dance floor created simply by moving the first two tables. The kitchen, steered by Chef Marcus Langer, brings Rheingau produce and a cellar of rare wines to a table that would be remarkable in any city, let alone in a riverside village 30 minutes from Frankfurt. For couples who want intimacy over spectacle, but who refuse to compromise on food and wine, the Kronenschlösschen is a natural answer.
