Hotel Landsknecht The Hotel Landsknecht is a family run 3* hotel, officially accredited as a walker‘s hotel, and set on the bank of the river a mile to the north of St. Goar. It is the only hotel on this part of the river to have a terrace directly on the river. From the hotel there are fine views of Maus Castle and the vineyards on the opposite bank. The Lorenz family not only run a fine, friendly hotel, but also make fine wines in Boppard, which you can enjoy in the restaurant, or taste and buy in the Vinothek. The hotel also has two self-catering apartments, if you prefer this type of accommodation. |
