What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Set amid riverside vineyards near the intersection of Germany, France, and Luxembourg, Victor’s Residenz-Hotel Schloss Berg comprises two buildings — one modeled after a Roman villa and the other resembling a Renaissance-era castle.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Vineyard trails wind directly through the Moselle slopes outside, just across the river from Luxembourg.
The rooms
Castle bedrooms feature jewel-toned canopies and ornate mirrors. Quarters in the villa take cues from Roman antiquity, with gilded headboards.
The indoor pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The heated indoor pool curves beneath a painted celestial ceiling, flanked by dark columns and mosaic-tiled planters.
The spa and saunas
A Finnish sauna heats to 90 degrees Celsius, and treatment rooms work with Vinoble skincare and HydraFacial technology.
At the table
Restaurant Bacchus serves fresh Italian dishes beneath tall columns, and Caesar's Bar pours cocktails beside Greek key brasswork.
How it began
The reconstructed Renaissance castle housed a rural school hostel for nearly thirty years before reopening as a hotel in 1990.
