Das Rübezahl – Romantic Hideaway & Boutique Spa
Self Description
In the picturesque Schwangau in the Allgäu, directly overlooking the majestic Neuschwanstein Castle, you will find the Boutique Hotel The Rübezahl. This 4****S hotel, run by the Thurm family, combines casual luxury with a boutique spa and first-class gourmet cuisine. The 54 individually designed rooms and suites range from luxurious Alpine-style rooms with fireplaces to modern suites with their own whirlpool and infrared sauna.
Three restaurants in the valley and on the mountain offer culinary highlights: The award-winning restaurant Louis II impresses with a unique concept that combines cosmopolitan creations with regional influences. The restaurant's various areas range from elegant interiors to a charming outdoor terrace. The creative kitchen team, led by Erik Wendt, spoils guests with diverse, modern dishes, including vegan and vegetarian options. Those who prefer a rustic and natural atmosphere can hike to the hotel's two mountain huts in Schwangau and Pfronten and enjoy specialties such as cheese spaetzle, fondue, or a mountain breakfast with impressive views of the peaks. Regular culinary events with live music and renowned winemakers round out the offerings.
Numerous mountains and natural lakes around the hotel invite you to go on excursions with e-Vespas or bicycles, including a picnic basket. Guided hikes with the hotel's own mountain guide are offered several times a week. Several detox, mindfulness, and yoga retreats take place throughout the year, with the highlight being yoga on the platforms in the mountains.
In the exclusive boutique spa, you can relax all year round in the heated outdoor pool, whirlpool and panoramic bio-sauna with breathtaking views of the castle. Various saunas, a salt brine grotto and a tepidarium ensure deep relaxation. The Beauty Alm offers alpine treatments with herbs and oils. In summer, the spacious wellness garden with natural pond and sun loungers invites you to relax.
