Excellent location, friendly hosts, and good food. Best of all was that you could explore the castle on your own after visiting hours, which is a huge perk as a hotel guest. I loved it, I'll be back!

Me and my son made a tour around Fränkische Alp to look at castles and other historical landmarks. We also stayed in some of the castles. We were focusing especially on castles with a more "medieval" appearance rather than later palaces. Burg Katzenstein was a wonderful place to stay. It had everything we were looking for. The restauration had been made very nicely keeping the medieval character. The castle also included nice museum parts, and everything from a quite scary tower (the stairs felt as from the days the castle was built) to an equally scary dungeon (entered through a narrow tunnel). The bedroom was nice, very spacious, light and clean. Very nice staff (but it helped to know some German). Nice breakfast and good choice also for food for dinner. Good location only 20 min by car from lovely Nördlingen. Nice, large, firm kingsize beds.

Exceptional service. We arrived very late due to being stuck in traffic. They were accommodating for late check-in and restaurant was closed by the time we arrived. However, they were kind enough to prepare a meal for our family so we can eat something. We really appreciated their kind gesture. Property was great, we walked around the castle and its hidden gem with history and cool things to see on the property.

If you want to feel at home in a real castle this is your place! we arrived outside reception opening time but it was no problem for this lovely family who runs the place. We even received dinner although kitchen was closed too. The room was as spacious as a two bedroom flat. The castle dates back to the year 777! and only we could discover it after and before opening time as a stay overnight guests…Very special place, a real treasure hunt with all the cats for older kids (toddlers only by holding hands). Breakfast is a treat. An overall excellent stay for us. Thank you!

quite exceptional for the kids to stay in a castle and to visit the tower, look for the ghost, at our own pace.

The castle is beautiful. It has been thoughtfully restored. The rooms are definitely not high-end or modern, but they are quaint and quite large. All of the staff was so kind and the Knight’s Dinner was so much fun. Just a caution this is not a big US Tourist attraction- some of the staff speak English, but the tours and entertainment are all in German. We didn’t mind even though none of us speak German well. There is an English guidebook for the Castle and we just toured on our own and loved it. The Dinner was a bit more challenging, but honestly it was just fun to be there and the food was delicious. We just drank a lot of beer and laughed with everyone and had a blast!

Ein Traumaufenthalt im Burgzimmer mit meterdicken Wänden, rustikal geschreinerten Möbeln, tolles Bett, prima Frühstück. Beste Küche zum Abendessen (Hirschgulasch mit Spätzle und Preiselbeeren !!!) im Burggasthof. Sehr freundliche Betreuung. Einstellmöglichkeit für's Fahrrad. Die gesamte Burganlage steht den Gästen zur Entdeckung offen, faszinierend, unbedingt eine Stunde dafür einplanen!

Einmal in einer Burg zu übernachten war mal was ganz anderes...hier wurde auf jedes kleine Detail geachtet. Alles war liebevoll eingerichtet und gestaltet. Die Zimmer gemütlich und sehr groß. Wir durften die Burg auf eigene Faust erkunden aber es wurde auch eine kostenlose Führung angeboten. Das Essen war sehr lecker und auch das Frühstück hat uns gut geschmeckt. Die "Burgherren" und "Burgdame" waren sehr freundlich Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder
