Apartment Ahrquelle shower/WC -2 persons - Denkmal Posthalterhof,

Our Ahrquelle apartment is located on the ground floor of the historic Posthalterhof and is ideal for 2 people. The 35-square-meter apartment is stylishly furnished with antique furniture and features a cosy bedroom with a kitchenette, a dining table, and an adjoining bathroom with a shower. The large terrace and garden are just a few steps away. Here, in a sheltered area, a garden table for two with a parasol is available for breakfast. The grill is also available for use, so you can spend your evenings outdoors.
For Christmas 2021, we opened our new sauna area for all guests of the Posthalterhof. In our large garden, there is a vaulted cellar—approximately 500 years old—built into the rock. Here, our guests can relax in the sauna and whirlpool in an extraordinary atmosphere and, in the secluded outdoor area of the covered lounge corner with a warm fire, listen to music and enjoy the view of the castle.
Dogs are welcome here and can run around freely in the huge garden. 

Free Wi-Fi and a flat-screen TV with Netflix and Prime are available.

The Posthalterhof, built in 1683 by the House of Thurn und Taxis, has been renovated with great attention to detail and offers an extraordinary atmosphere within its historic walls. Antique furniture and modern amenities in the bedrooms, the newly renovated bathrooms, and the fully equipped, open-concept kitchens are stylishly combined. Additionally, Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs with Netflix and Prime, and Alexa devices are available in the dining and living rooms.
In addition to the ground floor (a historic landmark), which can be rented for up to 8 people, the attic (Burg Maisonette) accommodates up to 6 people. On the ground floor are 4 apartments, each ideally suited for 2 people. The Ahrquelle apartment offers a cosy bedroom and living area with a small kitchenette and bathroom in approximately 25 square metres. The Georgstor apartment, at approximately 55 square metres, also features a couch, a large kitchenette, and a spacious bathroom. The two newly renovated apartments, Jakobsweg and Eifelsteig, have direct access through a door inside the apartment to their own small terrace with a dining table and grill. The Jakobsweg apartment, at approximately 35 square metres, has a studio-like feel thanks to its separate double bed and large couch.
