Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
On a sprawling Black Forest estate in Donaueschingen, surrounded by rolling hills and three golf courses.
The rooms
Styled in a refined grayscale palette, rooms feature private balconies or terraces looking out over the rolling golf courses and surrounding countryside.

Soak slowly.
A Japanese-style onsen glows in slate and bamboo, joined by an event sauna, herbal baths, and an ice lounge.
