The hotel was nicely renovated, with comfortable rooms, free parking, good WiFi, excellent included German breakfast and reasonably priced and very good dinners.  The hotel is located in a beautiful, quiet area across the street from the Moselle in a valley covered in grape vines.  Just 5 or 6 minutes down the road is the picturesque village of Cochem, with dozens of shops of all kinds and a rebuilt castle with a fun tour.  We could not have been more pleased with this wonderful find.  Highly recommended.  Ask for a room with a balcony in the back overlooking the vineyards.  We didn’t take a day cruise down the Moselle, but it looked fun.  You can also walk along a path next to the river which is lined with chestnut, walnut, plum and apple trees and see the swans.  Renting bikes would be fun too.  Oh, and there’s wine!
