For the next hotel stay of our Good Morning Milan, Goodnight Moon trip, we spent a night at the 112-room Falkenstein Grand Koenigstein, Marriott Autograph Collection, which I’ll be reviewing in this post. Then we spent the following night at the 22-room Villa Rothschild, Marriott Autograph Collection, which I’ll be reviewing in the next installment.
These are two sister properties that share amenities, and there’s an interesting backstory, as they both transitioned from German hotel group Kempinski to Marriott in 2021. Ever since, I’ve been intrigued by them, especially since Koenigstein is essentially a suburb of Frankfurt, so I wondered if this could be a fun stopover point if transiting Frankfurt.
I found Falkenstein Grand to be a fascinating property, though I’m still undecided as to whether I like it or not. The issue is, I’m not sure where exactly to place this property. It’s intended to be a bit of a spa and pool property, which Germans love, though I’m not sure that has the same appeal for foreigners.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
