• Philipp (10/5): -
• Jill (8/5): Fascinating site in a beautiful location. - Very fascinating site, as we had never stayed at a castle before. Breakfast was satisfactory. Setting is gorgeous. Carrying the luggage 5 stories.
• Thomas (9/5): -
• Petra (10/5): Ein einfach geniales Geburtstagswochenende, gekrönt durch fantastisches Wetter! - Es war alles perfekt, die Burg, die Zimmer, die Vielfalt der Ausstattung, das Personal. so toll was der Besitzer der Burg hier geschaffen hat und immer noch am Schaffen ist. Ein großes Kompliment!!!!
• Daniel (10/5): -
• Engelbert (8/5): -
• Alla (5/5): - Місце розташування та сам замок Персонал на рецепции абсолютно не знає англійської мови, не може розібратись з бронюванням , намагається повісити неіснуючи рахунки,
• Alexandra (10/5): Toll! -

• PaRaGi (10/5): Ein echtes Burg-Erlebnis - Die Anreise war gut, alles gut angeschrieben. Wenn keine Events sind, kann man direkt im Burghof parken. Die Begrüßung war sehr nett und wir hatten ein Ritterzimmer – toll! 54 Stufen in den 3. Stock – war es wert! Die BurgTaverne hat eine ausgesprochen gute Küche – besonders vom Steak war ich sehr positiv überrascht! Echt top! Die Katzen sind eine angenehme Gesellschaft. Man fühlt sich wie zu Hause. Wir haben sehr gut geschlafen. Dass die Burg kein WLAN hat, ist okay – der Hotspot auf dem Zimmer hat für das Nötigste gereicht. Ich war ja nicht zum Arbeiten hier ;) Am nächsten Tag haben wir die Führung mitgemacht – ein echtes Highlight, wenn man sich bewusst macht, was ein einzelner Mensch hier schafft – und das mit einem langjährigen Team. Das ist jedenfalls ein Qualitätsmerkmal. Es lohnt sich, hier Zeit zu verbringen. Das nächste Mal nehmen wir uns Zeit, die Umgebung zu erkunden. … und derjenige, der die Schachfiguren mitgenommen hat, möge sie bitte zurückbringen. Es ist ein Ort, an dem man Erinnerungen mitnimmt. Keine Dinge. dass wir nur eine Nacht geblieben sind ;)
• Nadine (10/5): - Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit auf der Burg Plankenstein. Die Zimmer sind alle individuell und mit viel Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet – wirklich etwas ganz Besonderes. Wir hatten sogar das Glück, ein Upgrade auf ein „Ritterzimmer“ zu bekommen, was unseren Aufenthalt noch einmal einzigartig gemacht hat. Besonders hervorheben möchten wir auch die Sauberkeit im gesamten Haus. Das Personal war ausgesprochen freundlich und hat unseren Aufenthalt noch angenehmer gemacht. Auch das Essen in der Taverne war großartig und absolut empfehlenswert. In der Umgebung gibt es zudem viele schöne Wandermöglichkeiten, was den Aufenthalt perfekt abrundet. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist ebenfalls sensationell. Wir können die Burg Plankenstein jedem empfehlen, der etwas Besonderes sucht und ein außergewöhnliches Erlebnis haben möchte.
• Christian (10/5): Traumhaft - Außergewöhnliches Zimmer, ein eigener Bergfried mit bester Aussicht! Super freundliches Personal!
• Douglas (8/5): - Ótima opção para quem guer ter a experiência de dormir em um castelo medieval. Quarto muito confortável. A região é linda e tem opções para caminhadas. Não gostei dos gatos subindo nas mesas do restaurante. Isso comprometeu minha avaliação sobre higiene, apesar de gostar muito de gatos.
• Barbara (10/5): Ein wunderbares Erlebnis :) - So ein tolles Erlebnis! Wir wurden gratis auf eine höhere Zimmerkategorie upgegraded, man taucht komplett in die historische Atmosphäre der Burg ein und man merkt so sehr, mit wie viel Freude das Personal dort mitwirkt. Es gibt hier auch immer wieder tolle Events (Krimidinner, Weihnachtsmarkt, Ostermarkt) - also unbedingt vorbeischauen!
• Karin (10/5): Wir haben für 2026 wo der Adventmarkt auf der Burg wieder gebucht. Jedoch werden wir wo anders Essen - Sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtetes Zimmer. Mit rustikalen und modernen Austattung, war es ein richtiges Highlight. Der gesamte Aufenthalt auf dieser Burg war ein besonderes Erlebnis. Enttäuscht waren wir das die Speisekarte vom Internet nicht mit der übereinstimmte die wir bekommen haben. Da es eine Geburtstag Einladung war, war es sehr unangenehm für mich, die doch wenigen Speisen vorzufinden.
• Susanne (8/5): -
• Nadine (10/5): Empfehlenswert - Sehr gut, einziger Kritikpunkt ist das Essen in der Taverne Es war in Ordnung, aber wenn viele Leute zu Gast sind gehen einige Speisen aus, suppe eher geschmacklos Geschmacklich ok aber nichts besonderes. Alles andere am Aufenthalt wie die Zimmer, das Personal, die Burg generell waren hervorragend Essen
• Kristina (10/5): Unique accommodation with charming medieval interior - * the most unique accommodation we stayed at * good vibes and energy. The owner is clearly passionate about this project and people are putting their soul into it, trying their best to create a community around this castle * every room is unique with a lot of details and interesting items * it was also very clean, comfortable (hot water, warm, quiet at night (double glazing and two doors) * gluten free bread option for bfast, nice mushroom stew with potatoes for dinner. * dog friendly and also has beautiful cats who live on premises * nice events and festivals - we got to see a bit of a Advent Market preparation *It will be nice to have an English menu as the internet doesn’t really work in the castle for translation *only one person spoke English * there is an ongoing renovation (it didn’t bother us during quiet hours), but you can still feel that it’s not fully finished. Will be amazing to see how it feels when it’s done.
• Bruce (10/5): - What an experience! A real castle in a gorgeous piece of the Austrian countryside. Breakfast and dinner were very good and the staff were friendly. A real treat! This is an 800 yr old building so there are lots of stairs - more than 80 from the car park to our rooms - and no lifts. We were OK with it but if you are a little infirm you might want to give it a miss. Also there is no covered parking so our motorbikes got wet during the evening rain.
• Iris (8/5): -
• Marie-Chantal (7/5): - La vue exceptionnelle et l’expérience château. Le personnel était plus ou moins accueillant. La préposée à l’accueil nous a laissé savoir à notre arrivée qu’elle avait hâte finir sa journée, on était les derniers.
• Jiri (10/5): -
• Heidlmair (9/5): - Die Gegend ist sehr schön
• Lisbeth (10/5): Werden wir weiterempfehlen - Diese Burg ist besonders schön hergerichtet für Gäste, Führung war sehr interessant Fahrradraum wurde zur Verfügung gestellt
• Viktoria (10/5): -
• Jason Addison (9/5): - Lived the friendly environment, castle, antiques, staff, views, sense of arrival
• Franz (10/5): - Tolles Hotel mit top Küche und sehr nettem Personal! Absolut empfehlenswert! Wir waren auf der durchreise und hatten nur eine Nacht Zeit.
• Brigitte (8/5): - Das Ambiente der Burg ist großartig. Wir hatten ein Kaminzimmer wo wir uns ein gemütliches Feuer 🔥 machen konnten. War sehr romantisch. Das Abendessen war gut. Personal freundlich. Leider kein Fön im Badezimmer.

• Rapolas (10/5): We stayed in the tower room with a terrace above; it was an awesome experience with fantastic views. - We stayed in the tower room with a terrace above; it was an awesome experience with fantastic views. Everything was great, except for the room's temperature, which was a bit cold during the night. However, we stayed in early May, and the weather was unexpectedly cold.
• Peter (5/5): Passable - Booking.com advertising was extremely misleading. The room was basic at best and not worth the price. Honest description by you
• Tigrona (10/5): Exceptional -
• Eugenia (10/5): Exceptional - Aside location, which is stunning, the place is huge and an absolute surprise. The rooms are big and bright, cozy and warm. We had dinner every evening in the restaurant and did not get disappointed. We totally recommend to take a property tour, it will help you understand better how that place runs and where did it started. We are absolutely pleased with the castle/fortress and with the people who keep that place running so good.
• Gertuida (9/5): Worth a visit, something out of the ordinary. - Interesting stay in an old castle, on a hill surrounded by trees. Lovely courtyard area with restaurant. Breakfast was good, coffee was great! Bit of a building site in certain areas, although it is to be expected from such an old place. When all the restorations are done this will definitely be very special. They also keep it very clean and separated.
• Heather (9/5): A wonderful quirky experience - We loved the remote location, staying at the top of a tower (despite all the steps!), it’s quirky and different and we’ll worth it for a few nights. A lot of steps to our room! And we would have liked more information about the place…
• Greg (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing Location history and staff
• Anita (9/5): Superb -
• Phillip (7/5): Food was quite good, and parts of the castle are wonderfully old, but the room was updated fantasy. - The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Hector the cat was very good company! We were expecting more historic rather fantastical accommodations.
• Alessandro (10/5): Exceptional -
• Solomon (10/5): Get here any way you can, pay whatever price. What a treat. - This place is amazing! A throwback to a different era. Liver like an earl, but with a great shower head and hot water, super comfy bed and a wood-burning fireplace right in our room. Great food and wine. The staff were super friendly…taking pride in their space and the work at the castle. Nothing
• Johannes (10/5): Exceptional -
• Niikee (9/5): Superb -
• Zsigmond (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jiri (10/5): Exceptional -
• Katherine (10/5): Excellent castle accommodation - It's a castle!!! Seriously awesome. No in all seriousness, the owners have done a great job renovating this gem. Our room was massive, not sure if we were upgraded but there was space to sleep 10 in our suite. A full bathroom with extra toilet was great with kids. The food was brilliant and the service was excellent. The English of the staff wasn't great but with their little bit of English and my little bit of German we managed. The castle tour was great and they had an English information sheet which was helpful. It's a little off the beaten track (remote). Whilst it didn't bother us, just beware if you have large suitcases that the stairway (tight spiral) might be difficult with larger luggage items. We had carry on size, so no great issue and honestly what would you expect in an old castle.
• Claudia (8/5): Very good -
• Kim (8/5): Very good -
• Albert (10/5): The Castle - Everything,Mario was exceptionally helpful and willing Mario made sure cats were not in our room or eating area when we were eating.Food excellent 3 cats I'm allergic to.
• Lyudmila (9/5): Superb - We have long dreamed of staying overnight at the castle. That was great. it is a stunning view from the terraces to the nearby villages. There were very tasty dishes in the taverna. The breakfast is also very good. We did not take a pet this time, but you will be welcome with him here.
• Marianna (10/5): Exceptional -
• Kelli (9/5): Superb -
