Overview
Part of this charming hotel occupies a fairy-tale castle built in 1654, surrounded by a private park of 30,000 m² in size, located in the town of Bertsdorf - Hörnitz. Schloßhotel Althörnitz offers elegant, romantic rooms with modern facilities. The rooms are located in both the castle and a modern extension. Get your day off to a good start with the Althörnitz’s hearty breakfast buffet. For dinner, visit the Hörnitzer Schlossstube restaurant boasting views of the park and freshly prepared dishes from the Oberlausitz (Upper Lusatia) region. At the end of the day, sit back with a drink in the Havana Club bar. Relax on the terrace, where you can enjoy the garden and the pretty pond. When the weather turns cool, take a good book into the library.

The sauna complex was just amazing. The breakfast was also fairly variable. Plenty of parking places, and located very close to the town of Zittau. We stayed in a standard room only, but definitely worth the price.

Many reviews here of this hotel are critical, but we had a much better experience than expected and apart from a few things, it was excellent. - The breakfasts were excellent, with plenty of hot and cold options, and the food was promptly refilled. Coffee was served immediately after we were seated in a thermos. It was probably filtered, but tasty. Also, the dining area in the old castle was beautiful, and the atmosphere was great. There were also seating options on the terrace. - The dinner was a three-course set menu. It was very tasty, with different meats (beef, fish, and pork) and diverse starters and desserts during our stay. However, it would be expensive at full price (~ 50 €) considering the size and also content of the portions. - We really enjoyed the surroundings, especially the ability to walk directly from our room to the park.

“Nice relaxing stay”
The park was very beautiful and just in front of the hotel room. The restaurant was nice and the food tasty. We liked the breakfast on the terrace the most.

The hotel is situated in a nice location (in a small town). It is a chateau surrounded by a garten where you can walk and relax. The rooms and area were clean, the staff was friendly. Quite a lot of parking space, although sometimes it may happen that it will be occupied.

“Staying in a castle , its a dream”
For a reasonable amount you can stay here in a castle although many rooms are in a modern wing. Don't miss this unique hotel if you are in this remote region of Germany. Room was modern, comfortable and had a nice patio. Breakfast buffet very good and friendly reception staff. The hotel is easy to reach by bus from Zittau if you have no car, but very limited bus services on weekend. During the week every hour. Hotel also has nice garden and park and a small lake. Can relax in the park. A lake for swimming in Olbersbach nearby (2 km). Wifi was good although its a rather remote area.
