I appreciate this hotel every time I stay here. It has a quiet elegance that I enjoy. My room was in the Jagdschloss itself, and it was beautiful and comfortable. The bed was wonderful and I appreciated the selection of pillows. I especially loved the nearby forest and lake, and the walking trails. I plan to return to the Jagdschloss Kranichstein and I recommend it to others.

The curb appeal and woods provide a delightful setting. The spacious room had thoughtful touches that made the stay memorable and top-flight. The dining exceeded our expectations. We will remember the fresh honeycomb and Nutella spread dispenser from the breakfast and the excellent large green salad from dinner.

VIP treatment

This hotel is fantastic. Great service, free parking, great food and a fantastic historic location. We enjoyed the drinks in the restaurant, the well equipped gym and even the dog got VIP treatment with its own bed and food bowl in the room. Can truly recommend this stay!

Interesting concept

Quaint, Historic, Had a powerful shower, and has its own charm, but not for us. Staying in a non AC room on a hot summer set of days was not comfortable, and neither was lugging our heavy suitcases up 2 flights of twisting stairs.

Moving luggage from the parking area up to the reception is a pain, sometimes you hear noise from the airtraffic into Frankfurt. Room had no air condition which hwr I did not mind. Friendly staff, large room, all good.

We stayed there for one night. But it seemed like a long time. You can walk around. There is the garden and the lake, which is not a new thing in Germany in general. I’d much prefer it if they had some bikes to rent, then we could go through the green areas. Also, they could have some small boats on the lake. It seemed like there were so many unused potentials. However, I have to say the staff were extraordinarily nice. The rooms were clean. There was a rabbit and a swing in the garden which I loved.

Check-in was at the main hotel. We stayed in the lovely annex just 100m down the road. Unfortunately the road can be rather busy so you either have to sit in traffic awaiting an opening in the oncoming flow to make the required left-hand-turn or you drive past/turn around and come back and make a right-hand-turn OR you risk it. We tried to locate the building using Google Maps but it stopped us about a km short, next to some railway tracks so … aim for the Museum building and you’ll get very near the check-in location. Very pleasant facility - clean and quiet. This is out in the country - there are a few eateries nearby (a bit pricey) or you have to head into Darmstadt for a full array of choices. Unfortunately, we had to head for the Frankfurt Airport rather early (a good half-hour away) and we missed any opportunity to examine the hunting museum or the eco-museum at the two Jagdschloss locations. Overall - pretty good value for our one-night stay.

I stayed here 2 nights solo, the second night was with a puppy. Staff were easy to communicate with via chat through Expedia leading up to the trip, and we’re friendly and helpful in person. I paid extra for the breakfast buffet, it was excellent. The on site restaurant was wonderful, I ate there twice for dinner. They let me bring my new pup into the restaurant. It was a little hard to find (I kept driving past it in the dark, my GPS had the wrong entrance). I was in an adjacent building, so had to walk outside a short distance. The hallway in the main building leading to the outdoor path was quite dark in the evening. Maybe I missed a light switch? I loved the park setting and the beautiful pond. Unfortunately I didn’t have much time to explore. It was very peaceful, though there was noise from being in the flight path of Frankfurt airport. Having said that, it was an easy drive to the airport when it was time to leave (25 minutes). When I arrived with my puppy, they had a dog bed and a water bowl waiting in the room, so sweet! I would stay there again.
