My wife and I spent 2 weeks touring Germany in February of this year. Looking back on our trip, the Hotel Kranenturm was our most charming and pleasant hotel stay. We were Fatima's first guests in 2012 and she was so grateful of our visit that she gave us our choice of rooms in the hotel! Fatima is a fantastic... More

We found Hotel Kranenturm through both Rick Steves and Tripadvisor. We are so happy with our decision to stay here! We walked from the train station rolling our luggage over the cobblestone streets of town. Fatima greeted us warmly and because she had an extra room that night gave us a choice between the one we booked and another. We... More

My friend and I spent a night at Fatima's lovely hotel in October. Hotel location is within walking distance of the train station as well as the KD cruise station. The town of Bacharach was so beatiful! It was a very unique experience spending a night in this old building which is a part of the castle wall. Fatima chose... More

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here, being made feel comfortable and at home with Fatima's generous and caring attention and lovely setting. I noticed some reviews were not happy with the close proximity of the trains to the building, but I didn't really notice them because I walked a lot around the beautiful town and environs of Bacharach and went...

The Lady that runs the hotel is extremely helpful as well as entertaining. My wife and I just mentioned that we like liverwurst and the next day at breakfast she brought out a plate of... More

We stayed in the tower for two nights. The room was very clean, very comfortable and quite. The triple pane windows and tower stone walls insulated us very well from the train noise. The location is inside the walled town of Bacharach with Staleck Castle, Posthof, vineyards and the KD boat dock all within easy walking distance Fatima, our hostess... More

We stayed here 2 nights and had a delightful time. Fatima deserves an A+ in her hospitality and helpfulness. She suggested a guided walking tour of the city, and it was one of the best experiences of our entire vacation. Breakfast was delicious and a nice variety. Supper was wonderful too, out on the outdoor dining terrace. We were able... More

Our tower rooms were charming and delightful, with views of the Rhine, the town, and the hillside vineyards. Fatima is a wonderful and attentive hostess and her husband (Hans?) is a wonderful chef. Don't miss his sauerbraten. We fell in love with this hotel and with Bacharach. More
