We weren't there yet as we had just disembarked our Rhine cruise. The car was still waiting for us nearby.
We left Bacharach and drove North to Oberwesel, following next to the Rhine all the way. We came to the bottom of a steep hill where a winding road would bring us 1,000 feet above the river.
We had to cross over a narrow bridge.
and parked next to the hotel's outer walls
and rolled our luggage up to the entrance of the hotel
Inside we introduced ourselves to the charming owners who work the front desk at times- Frau and Herr Huttl. A warm welcome and Mr H showed us to our room.
Our room was the top of this stone turret and consequently was round in shape. You can see our little wooden balcony sticking out at center right

Views from the room

To the South
The barge on the right is approaching Pfalz Castle in the middle of the river

Next we'll look at our round room....
