Hotel description

Wellness in a palace hotel

The Göbel’s Schlosshotel ‘Prinz von Hessen’ is located in the centre of Germany, in Friedwald close to Bad Hersfeld. This hunting castle was rebuilt in 1997 and transformed into a five star palace hotel combining an historic building with a modern interior.

The wellness hotel’s Schlosspark is perfect for walks to explore the medieval castle and discover the herb garden, which supplies the hotel with fresh herbs.

Guests can relax in the spa and sauna area with various saunas like the Schwitzstube, a steam bath, a bio or infrared sauna as well as the indoor or outdoor pool and whirlpools. The panoramic relaxation room has large windows offering a fantastic view of the countryside surrounding the Göbel’s Schlosshotel ‘Prinz von Hessen’. Those who prefer to be more active can use the panoramic gym with its various cardio machines. The qualified spa team has several baths, massages, facial and body treatments, cosmetics from the Far East and relaxation seminars on offer. 

Around the hotel you can also collect many unforgettable memories. The nearby town of Eisenach with its historic Wartburg Castle is just as suitable for a day trip as a visit to one of the many museums in the area. You can also explore the landscape of Friedewald during a hike around the Dreienberg.



In the spa and sauna area (extended to 1,600m² from Easter 2014) guests can choose from several saunas like a sweat lodge, a steam bath, a bio sauna and an infrared cabin. The 30 degree Celsius indoor swimming pool is ideal to swim a few lengths or be massaged by the massage jets in the 36 degree Celsius Jacuzzi. In good weather, there is also the possibility to use the outdoor pool and wellness garden. Guests can enjoy a little break in the spa bistro and in the various relaxation rooms. A relaxation room with 20 floating beds is accessible via a lift located in the pool area. If the weather is good, the large panoramic windows can be completely opened to enjoy the view of the countryside.

There are 15 treatment rooms available for massages and beauty treatments. The treatments include wellness baths, wraps, exfoliations, wellness massages, exotic and ayurvedic massage rituals. There is a private spa suite on-hand for couples. 

Beauty

The beauty lounge offers classic cosmetic facial treatments, rejuvenating cosmetics and anti aging treatments.

Distinctions

The ruin of the former water castle, dating back to the 14th century, is often used as a backdrop for open air concerts and celebrations like weddings. The hotel’s own registry office, on-site hair salon, patisserie and banquet rooms, like the knight’s hall or the Wintergarten, are ideal for relaxing and successful events. 

Discover the festival town of Bad Hersfeld, with its popular open air festivals or the Wartburg castle as well as the cities of Kassel, Fulda and Eisenach, all of which are approximately an hour’s drive away. Closer to the hotel, there are castles, palaces, mines or city tours to add variety. Visitors can explore the 25 kilometre Merkers mine and descend 800 metres to discover a fascinating world with its crystal grotto and an underground museum in the former Kali mine.

Sport

The wellness hotel’s panoramic gym is equipped with high performance cardio machines for strength, endurance and conditioning. There are treadmills, cross trainers, bikes and a rowing and a multi gym machine.

Those who prefer to exercise in the fresh air can cycle with the in-house e-bikes to Hersfeld, 12 kilometres away, or walk to the Dreienberg Mountain and explore the surroundings around Friedewald. There is also the option to borrow mountain bikes and sledges from the hotel.

In the 30 kilometre area surrounding the hotel, there are three golf courses with up to 27 holes available.

Fitness

Nine fitness machines are available all day in the 80 sqm fitness room. There are also gymnastics and Nordic Walking offers. Tennis court and bicycle rental are available on request.

Golf

Within a radius of 30 kilometres there are three golf courses with up to 27 holes.





Gastronomy

Chef Jose Estevez and his team are responsible for our culinary excellence, something which is very important to the Göbel’s Schlosshotel ‘Prinz von Hessen’. The Frenchman, with his Spanish roots, is convinced that the most important aspect to an exquisite and healthy gourmet cuisine are fresh products from known sources. He not only uses seasonal and regional products but he has also developed a kitchen garden in the grounds of the palace, where  he grows herbs, berries and flowers to use in his cuisine.

Guests can enjoy the creative cuisine in one of the five restaurants, the Prinzenstube, the Prinzesscafé, the palace garden or on the palace terrace.

The 7 degree house bar and the wine cellar invite you to finish off your day with a quality wine, an exotic cocktail or a freshly drafted beer.

3.1 The hotel is obligated to keep the rooms reserved by the customer available and to render the agreed services.

3.3 The agreed prices include all taxes and local taxes in effect at the time of the conclusion of contract. This does not include locally levied taxes, which are owed by the guest himself according to the particular municipal law, such as visitor’s tax.    
If the statutory value added tax is changed or if local taxes concerning the rooms and services are newly introduced, changed or abolished after these have been contractually agreed upon, the prices will be adjusted. This only applies to contracts concluded with consumers, if four months have passed between the conclusion and fulfilment of the contract.

3.4 The hotel can make its consent to the customer’s later request for a reduction of the number of reserved rooms, services of the hotel or the customer’s length of stay dependent on the increase of the price for the rooms and/or for the other services.

3.7 In justified cases, e.g. the customer’s default in payment or expansion of the scope of the contract, the hotel shall be entitled, also after the conclusion of the contract up to the commencement of the stay, to demand an advance payment or a security within the meaning of the above-mentioned No. 3.6 or an increase of the advance payment or a security agreed in the contract up to the total agreed remuneration.

3.8 Furthermore, the hotel shall be entitled, at the commencement and during the customer’s stay, to demand a reasonable advance payment or security deposit within the meaning of the above-mentioned No. 3.6 for existing and future accounts receivable from the contract, insofar as such has not already been paid pursuant to the above-mentioned No. 3.6 and/or No. 3.7.

4.2 Insofar as the hotel and customer have agreed upon a date for a cost-free withdrawal from the contract, the customer may withdraw from the contract up to that date without incurring payment or damage compensation claims by the hotel. The customer’s right of withdrawal shall expire, if he does not exercise his right of withdrawal vis-à-vis the hotel by the agreed date.

In this case, the customer is obligated to pay at least 90% of the contractually agreed rate for lodging with or without breakfast as well as all-inclusive arrangements with contracted services, 70% for half-board and 60% for full-board arrangements. The customer is entitled to prove that the above-mentioned claim has not accrued at all or has not amounted to the demanded sum.

5. WITHDRAWAL OF THE HOTEL

5.1 Insofar as it was agreed that the customer can withdraw from the contract at no cost within a certain period of time, the hotel is entitled for its part to withdraw from the contract during this period of time if inquiries from other customers regarding the contractually reserved rooms exist and the customer, upon inquiry thereof by the hotel with a reasonable deadline set, does not waive his right of withdrawal.

5.2 If an agreed advance payment or an advance payment or a security demanded pursuant to No. 3.6 and/or No. 3.7 is not made even after a reasonable grace period set by the hotel has expired, then the hotel is likewise entitled to withdraw from the contract.

- rooms or spaces are reserved with culpably misleading or false information or concealment regarding essential facts; the identity or solvency of the customer or the purpose of his stay can constitute essential facts;
- the hotel has justified cause to believe that use of the hotel’s services might jeopardize the smooth operation of the hotel, its security or public reputation, without being attributable to the hotel’s sphere of control or organization;
- the purpose or the cause of the stay is illegal;

8.3 The contract is governed by and shall be construed in accordance with German law. The application of the UN Convention on the International Sale of Goods and Conflict Law are precluded.
