Hotel Jagdschloss Kranichstein

Top choice in Frankfurt & Southern Rhineland


Set on 4.2 hectares of forest and parkland 5km northeast of Darmstadt, this 1580-built hunting lodge is now a magnificent hotel, with contemporary countrified rooms throughout the estate's buildings. Breakfast starts from €17; epicurean options include a game-specialist restaurant, bar/bistro, and Bierstube in the armory, opening to a beer garden, plus gourmet hampers for summer picnicking in the grounds.
