Hotel Hegenbarth's

Hotel Hegenbarth's (operating as Moselromantik Hotel Thul) sits on a quiet street in Cochem, the lower-Mosel town crowned by the Reichsburg castle. The hotel has been family-run since it was built in 1958 and keeps a traditional Mosel-region character — garden, terrace, fireplace in the lobby and a restaurant aimed at long, unhurried regional dinners. The wellness side is the main draw: a full-service spa with a sauna and massage/treatment rooms, well-suited to a slower-paced stay after a day on the river or in the vineyards. Buffet breakfast, bar/lounge, coffee shop and limited room service round out the everyday offering, and bicycle rentals are on hand for the Mosel cycle path. Cochem itself is the lower-Mosel anchor between Koblenz and Bernkastel-Kues. The chairlift up to the Pinnerkreuz viewpoint, the Reichsburg, river boat tours, kayaking and the Cochem old town are all within short reach. The hotel suits couples and walking groups looking for a quiet wine-region base with a real spa rather than a chain experience.
