What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
Castle Hotel Burg Schlitz is a classic (and Classical) example of the latter, a noble 1806 edifice set on 400 acres…
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Mecklenburg Switzerland surrounds the estate with quiet lakeland scenery, forested hills, and serene walking routes far from commercial hubs.
The rooms
Chambers feature oiled wooden floorboards, rich silk fabrics, gilt picture frames, and custom furniture crafted by the Hellerau manufactory.
The water
Bring a swimsuit.
The spa and pool
A heated indoor pool sits beside a fireplace, and an outdoor wood-fired beechwood tub steams on the hillside.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant Wappensaal
Seasonal regional dishes are served beneath vaulted ceilings, stained-glass windows, and heraldic crests lit by silver candelabras.
At the table
The Davidoff Lounge Bar pours spirits and cocktails around a curved timber counter lit by crystal chandeliers.
How it began

Count Hans Graf von Schlitz commissioned the late-classicist estate in 1806, scattering thirty-six monuments and the Caroline Chapel across the grounds.
