Schlosshotel Münchhausen

There are definitely a number of pro's and cons about the hotel. We had booked for 2 nights with 2 golf tee times included at Lippische Golf and Bad Pyrmont, and 2 dinners in the Michelin restaurant. First thing that went wrong was I didn't get it fixed through reception to get the golf tee times. I think I wrote at least 3 times. At the end I wrote to one of my connections at LinkedIn who works at the hotel, and I must admit, then it was quickly fixed. But that should not happen like this. At arrival the man responsible for the luggage did with us a mini tour, and showed the bar, restaurant and breakfast. Not often I have seen this service and I liked it a lot. The room was spacious and clean, very nice and comfortable. The real dissapointment was the diner in the Michelin star restaurant. Apparently they find it highly unusual that you book that restaurant twice in a row, and the menu was 2 days the same for us. We stayed in several other hotels with Michelin star restaurants this year, and there the menu was completely different second day, as they had plenty of guests that booked dinner more than once. Maybe at Schloss Munchhausen guests only book once, because of the price. For us 2 it was more than 600 EUR per day, that is the most I ever paid in this kind of restaurant, and way too much. Another thing about the restaurant is that I mentioned one of us had a garlic allergy. At arrival at hotel we mentioned that again, and they said they already knew about this and there was no problem. However in the restaurant the first day nobody knew about it when we mentioned it again. For a place with these kind of prices that is close to unforgivable. I wasn't excepting too much from golf as greenfees were 40 EUR at Lippischer and 49 at Bad Pyrmont, but that exceeding my expectations. You get about 20 EUR reduction from the hotel, and both were enjoyable. On day 2 we did a tour around the Baron Von Muchhausen course just next to the hotel, and I was happy we did not play that, the stroke index 1 and 2 holes are nearly unplayable.

Great looking place just a shame they were rigging up a festival gig for a few days so stage disco etc being set up in car park in front of building so really ruined that wow factor when you arrived! Also no tea/coffee facilities in room,very weird! Butt to food first class and staff very friendly
