Park Hotel
Traditional Elegance meets playful eclecticism. Intercultural themed rooms, Mediterranean details, and the feel of a carefully curated private home rather than a corporate hotel.
Book breakfast in advance — it's only served on weekends from Easter to October at €17.50 per person, not automatically included
Why It Matters
One of the few themed-room boutique hotels in the UNESCO Upper Middle Rhine Valley. Michelin Guide listed and featured on Tablet Hotels. Family-run since the 1990s by Ulla Graf-Joswig and Hans-Joachim Joswig, who trained in top hotels before creating their own idiosyncratic property.
A 1908 Art Nouveau villa sitting across from a spa park in Bad Salzig — technically 4 km outside central Boppard, though the train station is a 10-minute walk. The Joswig family has filled its 23 rooms and apartments with world-themed décor: think New York loft murals, an Afrika Lodge with earthy tones, a Renoir room that feels like a French atelier. It's quirky in the best possible way, and the family-run warmth shows in every interaction.
Where You'll Stay
7 room types available
Afrika Lodge Room
An Africa-themed room with earthy tones and distinctive décor. Compact but comfortable — reviewers note it's on the smaller side, but the balcony adds breathing room. The theme is carried through in wall details and furnishings.
Alcove Room
A more spacious option among the themed rooms, featuring an alcove layout for added character and space. Recommended by Michelin for guests wanting more room than the standard themed units.
Junior Suite
The most spacious accommodation in the main hotel building. Recommended by Michelin for guests wanting extra room. Individually decorated in keeping with the villa's intercultural theme.
London Room
A London-themed room, a guest favourite based on reviewer feedback. Individually designed with British-inspired motifs. Located on the second floor with stairs access only.
New York Themed Room
One of the signature themed rooms on the second floor (no elevator). Individually designed with New York-inspired décor and murals. Each room is a one-off — no two are identical.
Renoir Room
French Impressionist-themed room evoking the warmth and light of Renoir's paintings. Part of the collection of uniquely designed rooms on the second floor, each with its own character.
Themed Apartment
Located on the first floor, these self-catering apartments are themed (Leonardo da Vinci, Toscana, Provence among others). Each has a small kitchenette with appliances and a Smart TV. Can accommodate groups of 1 to 12 people per unit depending on the apartment. Added in the property's recent evolution toward more self-contained stays.
