The Alte Thorschenke in Cochem transports you back in time. Parts of the hotel date from the 1300's. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Our bed was a semi-canopy bed of wood painted with fairy-tale like scenes. The breakfast is a delight, served in a large hunting lodge-themed room. Delicious breads, meats, cheeses, yogurts, juice, eggs and breakfast meat on... More

If you're looking for the Ritz Carlton or even a Best Western, this is not the place for you. If you are looking for an historic hotel in the heart of the old town, with an easy walk to shops, restaurants and wine stores, this is definitely the place for you. The breakfast was very good with a wide selection.... More

We loved this old hotel in a fantastic location. It is so old and I believe part of the old city wall that some of the floors are slanted in some of the rooms, which only adds to the charm of transporting you back in time. It seems to fit with the quaintness of the town........If you want modern hotel... More

As a group of ten friends we stayed for 3 nights for the Cochem winefest. The hotel was perfectly located with fantastic views and in the very centre of Cochem. It was a little expensive but well worth the money and I wouldn't hesitate to book it again. The rooms were typically plain but very clean and extremely comfortable. Breakfast... More

The hotel is old, not particularly renovated. Hotel staff is excellent, but there is only so much they can do. It was a hot day and I asked for a fan and eventually received one, as the third-floor room was like a sauna. The fan was not particularly strong, but every little bit helped. The bathroom was equipped with exactly... More

I have been a lot to this hotel because both the location as the nature *buikld in a ancient city gate) is quite special. The room (the Turner suite) was fine and the availability of a fridger was quite useful.

I wanted to check a box between average and very good. The hotel itself is lovely -- in that creeky old, built in 1332 way -- but no, it doesn't offer AC (but it does have windows and a lovely breeze off the Moselle), and it doesn't have an elevator, but the stairs wind and divert and your walk to...

Situated in the middle of the town and built in 1332, the (family run) hotel has lots of character in itself and in its public rooms. However, it has a multitude of stairs to be climbed and our room was clean but small. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful and breakfast was plentiful and well prepared. Dinner was also...

We travelled to Cochem by rail and the location of this hotel was just perfect. It was an easy 10 minute stroll from the station with packs on our backs and was really easy to find. We had a Double Room Category C and were checked in immediately with very friendly service. We were given lots of information about Cochem... More
