Hornbach Hotell

Hotel information

Beneath the "Nikolausturm" tower with its original sandstone arches, you find our small but refined relaxation area, "BadeLust". Beneath a starry sky, you can take a dip in our relaxation pool with massage showers and neck jets. We also offer an experience shower with lights and scents, a small sauna, a steam bath and a quiet zone. Alternatively, you may wish to unwind in one of the deckchairs of our beautiful monastery garden. The hotel also offers excellent conference facilities and provides the ideal setting for private parties, whether in the monastery courtyard, in the pavilion of the herb garden, or in our function rooms.

Room information

Our guest rooms and suites are generously appointed and show great attention to detail. Superior materials, design and colours lend each room and suite its own distinctive charm. Choose from single and double rooms in either Mediterranen, Asian, Shaker or ethno style.

Food & beverage

Our kitchen staff and our head chef Vjekoslav Pavic will captivate you daily with freshly prepared dishes comprising regional seasonal products. Pure enjoyment awaits you in the restaurant "Refugium" or in the cosy "Klosterschänke". In our "Säulenzimmer" and at our "Klostertafel", guests attending special events are treated to carefully coordinated menus. During good weather you can dine on our terrace, in our beer garden or in our courtyard.

Area information

Rich, natural farmland extends from Hornbach across to the French-German border and beyond. All you need for a wonderful day out are two bicycles and one of our picnic baskets. Wander along "St. James' Way", which leads you along the meadows of the Rhine, past yellow cornfields, colourful vegetable fields, fragrant tobacco plants and vineyards, until you reach the wonderful Palatinate Forest. You could even continue into the neighbouring Saarpfalz district. During your stay, make sure you visit Zweibrücken, whose townscape is still shaped by the former duke’s palace, and by the squares of Herzogplatz and Alexanderplatz. In addition, Germany's largest outlet centre (15,000m²) awaits you here, offering all well-known brands and styles. In the Bitche region, you find the "Tépacap" leisure park, where you can put your acrobatic skills to the test as you climb along various treetop tracks - fun for the whole family!
