Burg Colmberg is perfectly situated at the meeting point of Germany's two most picturesque car trip routes, the Romantic Road and the Castle Road. The 1,000-year-old hotel that used to serve Franconian kings is now ready to serve you. You can spot it from far as it sits right on top of a hill, overlooking the beautiful Bavarian landscape.

The medieval ambiance is best enjoyed if you choose one of the historic rooms with four-poster beds, centuries-old paintings, antique furniture, and wooden ceilings. Feeling like a king or a queen yet? Take a glance at the ancient stone towers from your windows, visit the on-site chapel and the royal stables for a complete experience.

If you get hungry by the overwhelming castle experience, there are two rustic restaurants - Zur Remise and Burgstuben - to choose from. Order the typical meals that only the royalty would have eaten back in the days, and wash it off by the beer exclusively brewed for Burg Colmberg called the Schwarzer Ritter (black knight).

Once your appetite is satisfied, head for a stroll in the gorgeous rose garden or watch the majestic sunset over the Bavarian hills from the comfort of your room.
