Parallelogram Beds and Fancy Dolls in German Wine Country

Where: Kallenfelsstrasse, 25-27, Bernkastel-Kues, Germany, 54470

HotelChatter's Eric Rosen recently spent some time in Austria and Germany. All this week, he'll be rounding up his hotel observations. Any tips, suggestions, questions? Let us know.

Beds can be so boring. Soft or hard. Big or little. In the middle or the room or in the corner. No matter what else they are, they are almost always square (or circular at certain establishments we’ll never admit to having patronized ourselves—those ones that usually come with a mirrored ceiling, too). But have you ever wanted to venture a night’s sleep on a bed of a different shape? A parallelogram, say? We didn’t realize we had this very unique secret urge ourselves until we were shown to the Rapunzel Suite (complete with freaky, spotlighted doll!) of the Märchenhotel Anno 1640 in picturesque Bernkastel-Kues, in Germany’s wine-producing Mosel Valley. Turns out it had just the right angles for some perfect nocturnal slumber sprawling.
