We liked literally everything at Brennereihotel Sponsel: the atmosphere created by the family which is running this business merits to be rated beyond 10 on a 0 to 10 scale. They are friendly, professional and helpful. Their property is nicely designed, the rooms are spacious and perfectly clean and the breakfasts are tasty. Important for us, we experienced an amazingly child-friendly attitude. A nice bonus is their restaurant - I wish I could eat more than I did! And a real highlight is the alcohol of their own production: upon arrival tiny bottles of delicious liquor were welcoming us on our pillows. Yummy!

Me and my son made a tour around Fränkische Alp to look at castles and other historical landmarks. We also stayed in some of the castles. We were focusing especially on castles with a more "medieval" appearance rather than later palaces. Burg Rabenstein is really a dream castle if one likes these things. It has very spectacular looks on top of a cliff. It has amazing interiors that make you feel like moved in time. In addition to this there is also possible to eat quite high-end food for a reasonable price level in the castle restaurant. And the list of wine and spirits was very complete, and sitting there sipping on a good whiskey in a leather chair after the dinner was very relaxing. My teenage son was by then spending the time in the huge bathtub of our room. Altogether it really felt as we were some royalty in the past. The breakfast was also great, and the location is perfect for hiking in the surroundings. Only a few hundred meters away is an amazing cave with beautiful rock formations and remains of cave bears.

My family absolutely loved this hotel where we felt at home from the first second. The ambiance inspires a nostalgia filled with hope and beauty. The menu was excellent and would make proud the traditional Franconian region! The owner was so accommodating and made us feel part of this magical place. The rooms were spacious and the view stunning, overlooking the entire area. We would have stayed longer. We will be back!

A stylish hotel with very service-minded staff. (All of them) Good and varied breakfast which even included bacon. Unfortunately the room felt a bit dated with no AC. But there were mosquito nets attached to the windows so there were no problem having them open. Finally, a very good kitchen well worth a visit. (Hopefully even at lunchtime soon)

The location was perfect for what we needed. The room was very spacious and exceptionally comfortable. The shower was great with good water pressure. The landlord was very friendly, helpful and accommodating and made us feel really welcome. Breakfast was well-arranged and tasty. Eggs were cooked to order on request.

It is a charming town with beautiful places and friendly people. There was a lot of reconstructions in the centre but I hope next time to be ready. I would like to know more for the history of the town. There were too many interesting places - the tower, the gate ancient door, old houses and a lot of churches, a river - but I didn't find enouph info on the same places.

Gorgeous little village, surrounded by scenic landscape and a commanding castle. There are several beer gardens and restaurants to choose from. There are some great bakeries and gelato bars, too. Thoroughly enjoyed Pottenstein, there is so much to do and see in and around Pottenstein.

This was a business trip and thus there were a few options in the area. This apartment is however a much better option than a hotel, especially for the long stay (4 weeks in my case) and the cost is less.
