A beautiful castle just off the road to Hamburg.
Service wise, almost great. Only real let down was the exceedingly expensive breakfast that was really not worth the €30 that for 3 people almost felt like extortion.
Some cold fish, a few cheeses and some tired looking charcuteries.
Pancakes were fine as was the scrambled egg and bacon.
But an extra €12.50 for Eggs Benedict, come on, that really is taking the biscuit!
Also, had never heard of Rooibos tea, wich really was surprising for a place that clearly try to pass themselves off as top end. The blonde breakfast hostess was not great at speaking and understanding English, and the Basil Fawlty fake smile did not make up for that.
Room was comfy, nice greeting card upon arrival and also macaroons and chocolate.
But again, breakfast left an aftertaste, both price wise and for its lack of choice and flavour.
Absolutely superb hotel. From the moment we stepped in, to dinner with a number of guests and breakfast, nothing was too much for the always smiling staff. A group of us stayed here for Medica rather than pay over the odds for a mediocre hotel in Düsseldorf. Highly recommend and we’re made to feel special.
Es war ein schöner Aufenthalt. Die Zimmer waren sehr sauber, die Fenster geputzt, das Personal sehr freundlich, alles super!

Der Service und die Lage sind zu empfehlen. Die Zimmer im Haupthaus bedürfen einer Renovierung. Das Bad in Zimmer 16 ist unmöglich. Eine gefährliche Kletterpartie mit nassen Füssen aus der Badewanne zu steigen. Das Frühstüchk war gewöhnungsbedürftig. Es wurde eine Etagere auf den Tisch gestellt und alles andere musste man dazu bestellen und ewig darauf warten. Der Wunsch nach frischem Gemüse wurde zwar erfüllt, es dauerte jedoch lange bis 4 kleine Tomaten, ein winziges in Streifen geschnittenes Stück Gurke und einige Karottenstifte am Tisch waren. Am nächsten Morgen hatte das Personl alles vergessen und die Bitte und das Warten auf das Gemüse ging von vorne los.
Im Schlosshotel Hugenpoet residiert man in einem wunderschönen Ambiente und geniesst die hervorragende Küche. Entspannt, dem Alltag etwas entrückt, ist der Aufenthalt eine wirkliche Entspannung. Perfekt!
The hotel is amazing. We stayed in the Ustinov suite and were very pleased. The restaurant is first class . The hotel is pet friendly!! The staff need a shout-out here cause they are beyond great!!
Havde 3 overnatninger på hotellet/slottet, og det var virkelig et skønt sted. Gammelt men meget charmerende, og personlet var virkelig serviceminded og smilende.

Pretty building but a little tired.
Stayed for business. Quite tired rooms with very old tv’s but a beautiful setting.
Besonderen Dank an Herrn Strathmann, der mit seinem aufmerksamen Service (Cappucino im Schlosspark) unserem Aufenthalt die besondere persönliche Note verliehen hat.
It is such an extraordinary place that I stay here even when my business is in Cologne over an hour by train. The human “battery recharge” is absolutely fantastic, 19th century charm, grace, service and warmth keep me coming back!
The restaurant delivers consistent contemporary classic German cuisine with a light touch.... not easy with blutwurst but they do it!
Unfassbare Location mit einem 5starplus Service !!!Hohe Schule der Gastfreundschaft ! Ein Genuss pur!und sehr ansprechende regionale Küche -selbst gekocht kein convenience !
Das Schlosshotel Hugenpoet empfängt den Gast als etwas ganz Besonderes. Hier fühlt man sich gleich umhüllt von Good Vibrations. Das Ambiente, die zeitlos klassische und zum Teil jahrhundertealte Einrichtung wird ergänzt durch moderne Dekorationen. Die Zimmer sind stilvoll und gemütlich eingerichtet, die Betten top und eine wunderbare Ruhe begleitet einen in den Schlaf. Das Personal ist überaus zuvorkommend, freundlich und aufmerksam. Die Speisen des Restaurants, die Bar sowie das Frühstück sind nicht zu toppen. Wir haben an einer Gala mit 10 Personen teilgenommen und alle waren überaus begeistert. Gerne wieder !
Pricey but exceptionally comfortable, excellent food and terrific service. Things I would improve relate to incorporating breakfast into the regular room bill; making bicycles available free of charge for those interested; and reducing the cost of hotel-provided services to the airport. That said it was a terrific place to stay as a way to wind down after an intensive week...
