Escape to Fairytale Germany: Landhotel Zum Kronprinzen Awaits
Escape to Fairytale Germany: Landhotel Zum Kronprinzen - My Honest & Messy Review (Plus, a Booking Blitz!)
Okay, buckle up buttercups, because I'm about to spill the (German) tea on Landhotel Zum Kronprinzen. They call it "Escape to Fairytale Germany," and honestly? They ain't lyin'. But before you picture whirling dervishes of perfect pretzels and flawlessly executed lederhosen… let’s get real. This isn't a sponsored post, it's just me, your friendly neighborhood travel guinea pig, rambling about a hotel.
First off, let's address the accessibility elephant in the room. I didn't personally need it, but I did a deep dive. They claim to have facilities for disabled guests, which is awesome. But, and this is a big but (pun intended), confirm everything directly with the hotel before booking. Don't rely on a website's vague promises. Ask about specifically wheelchair accessible rooms. They do have an elevator, which is a huge plus for a multi-story hotel, but consider that exterior corridor situation – might be easier for you to get around if your room is on the ground floor.
Alright, let's dive into the stuff that I experienced. And oh boy, did I experience!
Rooms – The Good, The Bad, and the Blackout Curtains
My room was… well, it was a room. A cozy room. A room with blackout curtains – bless those angels! Seriously, after a day of exploring castles and drinking beer, those things were LIFE. I'm a sucker for a good sleep, and let me tell you, the extra long bed helped. I'm fairly tall, I needed every inch of it.
The bathroom was… serviceable. The toiletries were your standard fare, nothing to write home about, but hey, they did the job. There was a bathtub! I love a good bath, and I might have spent a silly amount of time soaking in a warm tub. (And, okay, I might have forgotten to pack bath salts. Rookie mistake, I know.) The bathroom phone was a bit old-school, which made me giggle, but I haven’t needed it. The hair dryer was decent, which makes a difference. After all, I would want my hair neat for the daily housekeeping after a day of fun!
The Wi-Fi [free] in the room? Nailed it! Internet access – wireless was a breeze. I needed Internet access – LAN to do some research, and it was there. But even better, they had Wi-Fi in all rooms, which is a win. No fighting over bandwidth with other guests.
The seating area was comfy, and the sofa made a great spot to unwind in the evening. The desk was functional, but I wouldn't describe it as a laptop workspace if you need to be super productive. The safe box was adequate, and I like that there was a smoke detector.
Food, Glorious Food (and the Occasional Hiccup)
Let's talk food. Because, well, Germany. And seriously, the breakfast [buffet] was the stuff dreams are made of. International cuisine in restaurant, Western breakfast, Asian breakfast, a salad in restaurant, and then some! So, they got the breakfast service nailed down, with some buffet in the restaurant too. The coffee was…strong. The coffee/tea in restaurant was abundant. The juice was fresh. I could have happily spent the entire morning grazing.
The restaurants themselves were charming, and they had some desserts in restaurant and a soup in restaurant, but they also had a menu of a la carte in restaurant that let me try new things. I wouldn't have had it any other way! The Happy hour was a delight. The staff was always willing to provide an alternative meal arrangement if I was feeling bold. The bottle of water in the room was a nice touch.
The poolside bar was a lifesaver on a hot afternoon. I confess, I may have indulged in a few too many Radlers (beer and lemonade). Snack bar was also good. I had a lot of options while dining, drinking, and snacking.
Drinks, Dining, and Drinking (The Fun Stuff)
Okay, so there was this one night at the bar… (Insert a dramatic pause here). Let's just say the local brew, accompanied by a friendly chat with a local, resulted in some… memorable moments. The kind that make you squint and think, "Did that really happen?" But hey, that's what travel is all about, right?
Relaxation & Rejuvenation (My Personal Crusade)
Now, let's talk about the spa. Oooh, baby, we gonna talk about the spa. I did a deep dive into the Spa/sauna. I'm a sucker for a good steam room and sauna. I went through the whole Body wrap and Body scrub, my skin had never felt so good!
The swimming pool [outdoor] was gorgeous, especially with the pool with view, but sometimes it was a bit crowded. However, the sauna was my personal sanctuary. Seriously, I spent about three hours just sweating out all the travel stress. And yes, I did shamelessly use the foot bath every single day. It was heaven.
They also have a fitness center, which I, um… glanced at. (Okay, I might have walked past it once. Gyms and I have a complicated relationship.)
Cleanliness, Safety, and Okay, Let's Be Honest, COVID Considerations
The whole Cleanliness and safety thing? They seemed to be taking it pretty seriously. Lots of hand sanitizer, and I noticed the staff wearing masks. They obviously know the deal. The Rooms sanitized between stays, the Daily disinfection in common areas, the Anti-viral cleaning products… it felt safe. They’re practicing Physical distancing of at least 1 meter, and that put me at ease. The Sanitized kitchen and tableware items was a nice touch.
They also had some additional safety precautions like Fire extinguisher and Security [24-hour].
Services and Conveniences – The Extras That Make a Difference
The concierge was super helpful with local tips. The service was awesome. Always helpful. They have Contactless check-in/out which is definitely convenient, and they let me get the breakfast in room, one time I was running late. The daily housekeeping was efficient. Cash withdrawal was easy. The car park [free of charge].
Things to Do – More Than Just Schnitzel
Okay, so the hotel is great, but what about the fairytale part? Well, the hotel is perfectly positioned to explore classic German castles, quaint villages, and, of course, indulge in ample food. They have a gift/souvenir shop, so you can get a few things for people at home. The hotel offers luggage storage.
For the Kids – A Family-Friendly Vibe
I didn't travel with kids this time, but I noticed they had some Family/child friendly things going on. Babysitting service, Kids meal, definitely a big plus. I did take a look at the Kids facilities, and I thought it was nice.
The Downsides (Because Nothing's Perfect)
Look, nothing's perfect. Here are a few minor gripes:
- Internet: The Internet could have been a little faster at times. But I am probably just too used to lightning-fast speeds at home.
- Room Decor: While the rooms were comfortable, the decor felt a tiny bit dated. Think more "classic German countryside" and less "trendy boutique."
- Service: The staff are friendly, but not super chatty.
The Verdict: Should You Book?
Absolutely. Despite its minor imperfections, Landhotel Zum Kronprinzen delivers on its promise of a fairytale escape. It's charming, it's comfortable, it's well-located, and the spa alone is worth the trip. It's the perfect base for exploring… just remember to pack those bath salts!
My Final Crazy, Chaotic, But Completely Honest Recommendation:
Go. Book it. Drink the beer. Get the massage. And for the love of all things Bavarian, experience the sauna! You won't regret it.

LANDHOTEL ZUM KRONPRINZEN: A MESSY ITINERARY (aka, My Brain Vomited This Up)
Day 1: Arrival, Bewilderment, and a Quest for Schnitzel.
- Morning (Likely Somewhere Between 7 AM and Noon):
- The Nightmare Begins (aka, the Flight): Ugh. Air travel. The purgatory before paradise. Pray for no screaming babies, overflowing toilets, or the dreaded middle seat. My emotional state? Pre-caffeinated anxiety.
- Landing & Luggage Labyrinth: Okay, Germany. Let's do this. Pray the luggage gods are kind. I hate waiting for luggage. It's the ultimate test of patience, and I’m pretty sure I failed it five times before I even left my house.
- Imperfection: I pack too much. Always. Expect a suitcase overflowing with "just in case" outfits.
- Quirky Observation: The airport pretzels better be worth the exorbitant price tag.
- Afternoon (1 PM - 5 PM):
- Transfer to Landhotel Zum Kronprinzen: Assuming I haven’t lost my passport (again), it’s time to head to the hotel. Google Maps, please don’t fail me. I once ended up in a cow pasture following GPS directions. Lessons learned? Apparently not.
- Emotional Reaction: A mixture of excitement and utter terror. Will the hotel be as charming as the photos? Will I embarrass myself trying to order in German? The possibilities are endless!
- Check-In & Room Reconnaissance: Time to unpack (eventually) and assess the situation. Is the room clean? Does it have good coffee? These are critical questions.
- Messier Structure: Probably spend way too long trying to figure out how to turn on the TV.
- Transfer to Landhotel Zum Kronprinzen: Assuming I haven’t lost my passport (again), it’s time to head to the hotel. Google Maps, please don’t fail me. I once ended up in a cow pasture following GPS directions. Lessons learned? Apparently not.
- Evening (6 PM Onward):
- The Schnitzel Hunt: Ah, yes. The main event. I’m envisioning crispy, golden-brown perfection. The quest for the perfect schnitzel begins! I’m reading online reviews now.
- Strong Emotional Reaction: If the schnitzel is dry, I might actually cry.
- Rambling Time: So, after a long day of travel, I will probably eat the schnitzel, take a shower, and crawl into bed. I’m already craving a good night’s sleep. Maybe I’ll read for a little bit, but chances are, I’ll fall asleep within five minutes.
- Imperfection: Will probably overeat. I am in Germany of course!
- The Schnitzel Hunt: Ah, yes. The main event. I’m envisioning crispy, golden-brown perfection. The quest for the perfect schnitzel begins! I’m reading online reviews now.
Day 2: Cobblestones, Castles, and the Battle for Breakfast.
- Morning (7 AM - 11 AM):
- The Breakfast Brigade: This is crucial. German breakfasts are legendary. I anticipate an epic spread of breads, cheeses, meats, and coffee.
- Strong Opinion: If there’s no decent coffee, I might stage a small rebellion.
- Single Experience Doubling Down: Okay, here’s the deal: I'm going to spend at least an hour at breakfast. Savouring the moment. Watching the world go by, and not feeling guilty for eating multiple plates. Okay, maybe just one more slice of that delicious bread….
- Exploring the Local Town: Whatever town the Landhotel is located in, I will try to explore it. Wander the streets. Take a million photos. Probably get lost.
- Messy, Honest Truth: I'm terrible at directions.
- The Breakfast Brigade: This is crucial. German breakfasts are legendary. I anticipate an epic spread of breads, cheeses, meats, and coffee.
- Afternoon (12 PM - 5 PM):
- Castle or Something Historic: I'm aiming to visit a castle. German history is the best and a castle is a must.
- Quirky Observation: If I'm lucky, I will meet a sassy local cat.
- Lunch: More German goodness, please! Maybe attempt to order in German. And then make a fool of myself.
- Castle or Something Historic: I'm aiming to visit a castle. German history is the best and a castle is a must.
- Evening (6 PM Onward):
- Dinner and Relaxing: Finding a nice restaurant and enjoying a relaxing dinner. Maybe a local beer.
Day 3: (Repeat Days 1 & 2, But with More Beer and Less Shame).
- Rinse and repeat with sightseeing, food fests, and all the German magic!
- Imperfection: Expect a souvenir shopping spree and an overflowing bag of candy.
- Strong Reaction: Total and complete bliss (hopefully!)
Day 4: Farewell, Deutschland (Until We Meet Again!)
- Departure Day :
- Mourning the Trip's End
- The Last Breakfast
Important Considerations:
- Phrasebook: Buy a phrasebook, or use a translation app. My German is… well, let's just say it's "enthusiastic."
- Shoes: Comfortable shoes are essential. I'm planning on doing a lot of walking.
- Flexibility: This is just a guideline. Spontaneous adventures are the best.
- Embrace the Mess: This is the most important one! Travel is messy, unpredictable, and often hilarious. Don't try to control everything. Just go with the flow (and maybe bring an extra pair of underwear).
This is just a rough sketch, and I'm sure it will evolve (or devolve) as the trip progresses. Wish me luck. And maybe send some extra schnitzel. I'm going to need it!

So, what *is* this "Escape to Fairytale Germany" thing, anyway? Sounds…cheesy.
Okay, look, I get it. "Fairytale Germany" sounds like a Disney marketing campaign. But… (and this is where it gets messy) it's actually… kind of true. Or, well, parts of it are. Landhotel Zum Kronprinzen, the place in question, *feels* like a fairytale. Think gingerbread houses, cobbled streets (seriously, prepare your ankles), and a general air of 'once upon a time' that makes you want to grab a stein and burst into a hearty "Heigh-Ho!" It’s the kind of place where you expect a kindly old crone (or, you know, a slightly grumpy German woman in a dirndl – I saw one of those) to offer you a poisoned apple… but in the *nicest* way possible, of course. The cheese factor is definitely present, but in a charming, comforting way, like your favourite cheesy movie you can't help but love.
Is it REALLY a Landhotel? What’s that even mean?
Yeah, it IS. "Landhotel" basically means "country hotel," but that doesn't quite capture it. Imagine a comfy, family-run inn, nestled in the countryside. Think cozy rooms, hearty meals (more on those later), and a general sense of being genuinely welcomed. It's not a cold, impersonal chain hotel. You’re more likely to find the owners wandering around, offering recommendations on where to go and what to do (and maybe, just maybe, sharing some local gossip, because, let’s be honest, everyone loves gossip). My first thought? "Wait, am I in someone's *house*?" And in a way, you kind of ARE. It's that intimate, almost old-fashioned feel that makes it special.
What’s the actual hotel like? Give me the nitty-gritty. And the good, the bad, and the ugly, please.
Okay, fine. Let’s get down to brass tacks. The **Good**: The rooms are charming, often with wooden beams and views that will make you audibly “ooh” and “aah.” (I may or may not have done that a few times. Okay, fine, MANY times). The breakfast? Unbelievable. Cured meats, cheeses, fresh bread, the works. I’m getting hungry just thinking about it. It's all just very…authentic. The staff are genuinely lovely. They speak English (mostly), but even when there’s a language barrier, they try *so* hard to help. You feel like you've stepped into a warm hug. The location is fantastic. Easy access to castles, charming villages, and hiking trails. It's a perfect base for exploring the area.
The **Bad**: Okay, let's be real. It's not the Ritz. The Wi-Fi can be… temperamental. The decor might not be to everyone's taste – it's got that classic "grandma's house" vibe (which I actually loved, it's part of the charm, dammit!). The shower pressure isn't always the strongest. And if you’re used to ultra-modern hotels, you *might* find it a bit…dated. But I'm talking minor, nitpicky stuff. Honestly, these tiny inconveniences barely registered when compared to the overall experience. It's important to go with the right mindset. Embrace the imperfections!
The **Ugly**: Erm… honestly, I struggled to find anything properly "ugly." Maybe the occasional creaky floorboard? Or, and this is me clutching at straws, perhaps the fact that you *will* overeat at breakfast because it’s just THAT good. Then you will feel a little…stuffed. But that is entirely your fault and a consequence of your own gluttony, not the hotel’s fault. Okay, maybe the price is a *little* higher than some budget options, but you honestly get what you pay for. And honestly, I don't think it's that ugly at all compared to other places.
Tell me about the food! Because I *live* for good food.
Oh. My. God. The food. Where do I *even* begin? As I said, breakfast is a religious experience. Imagine mountains of fresh bread, a selection of cheeses that will make you weep with joy, perfectly sliced ham and sausages, yogurts with fresh fruit, and strong, dark coffee that will kickstart your day. And if you are like me, you can easily overeat at breakfats because it's just so good. I'm not even kidding. But it went beyond breakfast and the hotel's restaurant offers traditional German cuisine (think schnitzel, sausages, hearty stews). It's not fancy, Michelin-star dining, but it's *real* food. Comfort food. The kind of food that warms your soul on a chilly evening. The portions are generous, and the flavors are authentic. I remember one particular Schweinshaxe (pork knuckle). Holy moly. I'm pretty sure it was bigger than my head. I could barely move afterwards, but it was *so* worth it. They even have a garden out back, and I believe they grow their own ingredients. It's not about elaborate plating, but the fresh ingredients and the traditional cooking methods. (Important note: Consider trying a local brewery for something to drink, preferably a stout. It is the best thing I have had in my entire life, at the time of this writing.)
Is it good for kids? Romantic getaways? Solo travelers? What's the vibe?
Honestly? It’s pretty versatile. **Kids:** Totally. It's safe, the staff are welcoming, and there's plenty to explore nearby. The whole fairytale vibe is perfect for sparking a child's imagination. **Romantic getaways:** Absolutely. The cozy rooms, the idyllic setting, the candlelit meals… it's pure romance. I saw several couples holding hands, looking all gooey-eyed – it was incredibly sweet. **Solo travelers:** Yes! The hotel is cozy and friendly, and you'll feel comfortable wandering around on your own. It's a great place to meet other people, as you can easily run into others who are just as enamored with the area. The vibe is generally relaxed, friendly, and unpretentious. Think comfortable shoes, a warm smile, and a willingness to embrace the simple joys of life.
Okay, so about those cobblestone streets… how accessible is the place?
This is a good question. The area itself isn't exactly known for its accessibility. Cobblestone streets are charming, but not wheelchair-friendly (speaking from a general perspective – I am able-bodied, so I can't speak to this directly). The hotel itself is likely to have some stairs, being an older building. I’d recommend contacting the hotel directly to inquire about specific accessibility needs. They are usually very accommodating, but you should definitely check beforehand to avoid any unpleasant surprises. It is important toPopular Hotel Find
