What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
This 1801 villa features many original details, from its elegant façade to the parquet floors and stucco ceilings that still adorn its 11 rooms and suites.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Burg Saarburg rises directly across the water, and the old town is a short walk across the bridge.
The rooms
Original stucco ceilings and marquetry parquet run through each bedroom, set against clean-lined contemporary furniture.
At the table
Michelin-starred Dopamin serves seasonal tasting menus and Saar Riesling. Outside, wooden tables sit amid lavender in the riverside beer garden.
How it began
The outbuilding behind the villa is Saarburg's only surviving historic tannery, marking the leather trade that funded the estate.
