Welcome to the Schlosshotel Kronberg – a house with history. The Empress Frederick,
daughter of England’s Queen Victoria, built it between 1889 and 1894, after the death of her
husband, the Emperor Frederick. She lived here until her death in 1901.
Today you can enjoy these unique surroundings as a hotel guest. Savour the peace and
exclusiveness of this castle and its extensive, idyllic grounds. Had the poet Oscar Wilde
stayed in the Schlosshotel, he would have been happy. He was after all a modest man. He
demanded only the best.
The Schlosshotel is situated just outside of Kronberg – a picturesque little town in
the Taunus Mountains with a well-preserved old town centre. With Frankfurt and Wiesbaden still
within easy reach, guests can relax here away from the day’s hectic activity enjoying the
scenery and countryside so typical of Germany.
A magnificent park surrounds the Schlosshotel. The size of this private garden with
its the tall majestic trees, many from exotic parts of the world, invite guests to enjoy a
stroll. The rhododendrons in full bloom, usually typical of English gardens, are a reminder of
the Empress’ heritage. The rose garden, which is kept in the Italian style, is also
exceptional. The park includes one of Germany’s most splendid golf courses, a challenger to any
golfer.
The cuisine of the Schlosshotel is not only renowned for its classical dishes. As is
to be expected of the Hotel’s high standards set here, the chef has also incorporated the
modern influences of today’s culinary art. From impeccably served Breakfast, or Afternoon Tea
at weekends – in good English tradition – to festive evening meal, the hotel guest will find
everything expected from an exceptional hotel.
The extensive wine list deserves particular attention. It carries many noble vintages,
including wines from the Hotel’s own vineyard “Prinz von Hessen”.
Jimmy’s Bar:
Jimmy΄s, the American bar is a meeting point for our hotel and local guests. The Bar is not
only a pleasure for art lovers, because of the only original 'Turner' in Germany,
but also an enjoyable atmosphere for everyone and with Piano Music during the evening.
