Luxury hotels and fine dining restaurants in Germany

Holidays in Germany 

Germany’s central European position and its borders with nine countries (can you name them all?) lend it a profoundly varied geography and a mélange of different cultural influences. From its northern coasts to the Alps in the south, from its fairy-tale landscapes to its ultra-modern cities, its nightlife to its Black Forest, it has plenty to offer the tens of millions of visitors who come each year. Our luxury hotels in Germany are happily spread from top to bottom of the country to help visitors take in every element of its many charms. 

Feel immersed in history: our luxury hotel suites in Germany 

And whether it’s urban style and sophistication you’re looking for, or accommodation in mountain chalets, grand country estates, seaside resorts, rustic hideaways or to live out your castle fantasy, our hotels in Germany offer all kinds of holiday immersion. Each one offers access to different kinds of nature, a sense of history, culinary and cultural tradition that’s never far away, even in the most modern of surrounds, and exacting, personal service. 

Finessed cuisine and homegrown wine: fine dining restaurants in Germany 

Germany’s culinary range–and multi-cultural population–makes for a wide range of tastes, flavors and cooking styles. Clean Nordic dishes, classic French influences, Mediterranean cooking, Alpine traditions and more are on show in contemporary, creative menus that are a feast for the senses–our gastronomic restaurants in Germany also glitter with Michelin stars.  

Our talented chefs celebrate locally grown, sustainable ingredients and are often inspired by nature herself. They cultivate close relationships with growers and producers, sourcing abundant sea and river fish, fruits and vegetables that reflect distinct seasons (you’ll know if we’re in asparagus or truffle season), succulent meats like beef or deer, reared on grassy pastures, rolling hills and forest landscapes, even edible flowers that grow on the hillsides.  

Visits to our fine dining restaurants in Germany are designed as unforgettable culinary experiences, with fresh, light and aromatic cuisine as well as dishes that celebrate the country’s international reputation of more hearty food. Its bread, cheese and sausage culture is never far away and always worthy of trying as you explore. 

Germany’s wine regions are also world-famous, from aromatic, mineral Rieslings to Spätburgunder (what you may know as Pinot Noir) among the most venerated among enthusiasts, fast relegating a reputation as a producer of semi-sweet wines to the past.

Our luxury hotels in Germany are the perfect base for every adventure. On Germany’s North and Baltic Sea coasts, you can walk the dunes, visit lighthouses and go horse-back riding; its center offers epic river valleys, vineyards, and rocky ravines to explore, great for hiking, biking and vineyard visits or oenological tastings; its south presents unspoiled nature, waterfall-filled, lake, forest and meadow landscapes peppered with castles–plus winter sports towards the Alps.  

There are historic landmarks, palaces, baroque wonders and Gothic architecture throughout the country’s towns and villages, museums and galleries that tell the story of ancient and modern Europe, and multiple UNESCO World Heritage Sites–concierges in our hotels in Germany can make suggestions and help plan your visit. For those seeking culture, there are multiple arts venues throughout Germany, with opportunities to enjoy theatre, opera and dance, especially around bigger cities. Some of our chefs offer cooking classes. And for anyone preferring to enhance their sense of well-being, our luxury spa hotels in Germany have pools, mountain lakes, treatments and personal trainers at their disposal. 

Experience the pleasures of Relais & Châteaux in Germany  

All of our 5 star hotels in Germany, and around the world, are independently owned. Our collection of hotels and restaurants are also often family owned, and have been in the same families for generations, lending them a more human-sized dimension, sometimes with just a handful of rooms, and the distinct charm that comes with being hosted by people who have a genuine connection to the history of the property. Our owners, their families and teams pride themselves on their warm welcome, in representing the authenticity of their region, and are acutely aware how they are preserving their culinary and cultural traditions for the next generation. 

Green spaces and clean air: Eco Hotels in Germany 

With most of our luxury hotels in Germany looking after green spaces, including their own gardens, or being close to nature, whether national parks, wild coastline, manicured estates or vineyards, all our properties have a profound respect for the world and the importance of maintaining its biodiversity. Our properties epitomize responsible travel in Germany: keeping their carbon footprints down, sourcing sustainably, choosing local foods and crafts and even offering low-carbohydrate meals are all ways in which they care for the environment and play a key role at the heart of their communities.
