The Landhotel Burg im Spreewald sits in Burg, the largest village of the Spreewald — the UNESCO biosphere reserve in Brandenburg where the river Spree fans out into hundreds of small waterways. It is a landscape of alder forests, water meadows and traditional punt boats, with a living Sorbian-Wendish culture and the famous Spreewald gherkins.
The hotel is built for a proper wellness stay. A full-service spa runs a sauna, a steam room and a hot tub, paired with an indoor pool, access to a nearby outdoor pool and a fitness centre — a generous set-up after a day on the water or the cycle paths. Three restaurants, a bar and a garden terrace cover the eating and relaxing, while a playground, mini golf and a games room keep families busy.
The Spreewald is best explored slowly: traditional Kahn punt tours leave from Burg, the cycle and walking network threads between the channels, and the reserve's wildlife and meadows are the real draw. The hotel suits couples, families and wellness travellers wanting a green, water-laced break within easy reach of Berlin and Cottbus.
