Rhineland Palatinate

Overview:

Bordering the countries of Belgium, Luxembourg and France on the western edge of Germany, the Rheinland-Pfalz region is best known for its wines and vineyards along the Rhine and Mosel Rivers. High above the Rhine, castles guard the heights or lie on islands amidst the churning flow. The river narrows to swirl past the legendary Lorelei rock, whose muse dashed unwary sailors and their boats onto jagged rocks. At Koblenz, "Father Rhine is joined by his loveliest daughter, the River Mosel". The Mosel's path is gentler, looping lazily back and forth as it pases tiny ribbon villages of half-timbered houses. Steep vineyards line her banks, while castles stand guard from the hilltops above. The beauty of these vineyards is enough to fill a rich chapter in your vacation but don't forget the wine.

Our selective list of Hotels in Rhineland Palatinate offer the finest hotels, inns and castle hotels in the wine region.
