Jagdhof Glashütte
Traditional German hunting lodge meets refined country house. Stag motifs everywhere — from the bronze sculpture in the courtyard to the bottom of the pool. Romantic, not fussy. Rustic, not dated.
Book a room with a forest-facing balcony — several guests specifically call this out as worth the upgrade
Why It Matters
One of Germany's most decorated family-run properties. Relais & Châteaux member since 2002. The Ars Vivendi restaurant held one Michelin star (since 2000). The Rotisserie Jagdhofstuben appears in the current Michelin Guide. The property sits directly on the Rothaarsteig, one of Germany's premier long-distance hiking trails.
A 1905 farmhouse deep in the Rothaargebirge Mountains of North Rhine-Westphalia, transformed over five generations by the Dornhöfer family into a 5-star Relais & Châteaux property. Think warm wood-paneled rooms, a working fireplace in the hall, and a kitchen that has launched nine Michelin-starred chefs. The whole place runs on genuine hospitality — free minibar, complimentary Deep Forest Spa access, and a staff that will translate menus by hand for non-German speakers.
Where You'll Stay
7 room types available
African Style Apartment
From EUR456 / nightOne of the more unexpected rooms — a fully themed African-style apartment that breaks away from the hunting lodge palette while keeping the same generous standards.
Country Flower Apartment
From EUR456 / nightA more florid take on the countryside theme, individually styled and part of the apartment category at the hotel.
Country-Lord Apartment
From EUR456 / nightSpacious apartment in the English country-house style that defines the upper floors. Individually decorated with hunting-lodge character and countryside views.
Country-Lord Suite
From EUR456 / nightRustic-chic suite with a separate living room and bedroom. Decorative fireplace (non-working, just for atmosphere), whirlpool bath, and shower. The Country-Lord rooms were fully restyled in noble English hunting lodge style in 2008.
Jagd Suite Wittgenstein
From EUR456 / nightNamed for the historic Wittgenstein region. A full suite in the hunting-lodge tradition — the most regionally rooted room in the house.
Komfort Double Room Jagdhof
From EUR336 / nightThe entry-level double — still country-house in character, modern in comfort. Premium bedding, free minibar, bathrobe. Clean and spacious according to guests. No air conditioning.
Maisonette Apartment
From EUR456 / nightTwo-floor apartment — the most dramatic room layout in the house. Ideal for longer stays or guests wanting proper separation between sleeping and living space.
