Vegan Hotel in Germany

Welcome to the future of hospitality

In the midst of fascinating nature of the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve River Landscape Elbe Brandenburg lies our listed castle, framed by an over 5 hectare certified organic castle garden, directly on the river Löcknitz.

The ahead burghotel in Lenzen/Elbe is your vegan, climate-positive and consistently sustainable hideaway with the purely plant-based and ecological restaurant place to V, a large sun terrace and the breakfast winter garden with a view into the castle garden. The floor-heated tea house in the middle of the greenery offers you a retreat for meditation and yoga. Or can you be more active? Bamboo bikes, hiking, swimming, fitness, stand up paddling & canoes are waiting for you!

We want to be a pioneer of one of the most sustainable hotels: fair, ecological and mindful. For a better world, in harmony with nature, people and animals.

Sustainability

Sustainability is a word we hear around every corner. Unfortunately, not all companies take it so seriously.

We believe that the climate crisis is a major challenge of the 21st century and that each of us can make a big contribution in overcoming it. As Gandhi said, “Be the change you want to see in the world,” we believe in the power of all of us. As a company, we also want to live up to our responsibility.

And even more than that: we also want to inspire and encourage our guests to take further steps. Because we also believe that acting in a climate-conscious way with respect for our environment, people and animals does not have much to do with renunciation, but on the contrary can be a lot of fun.

Here you can find out everything about our far-reaching measures in all areas of our hotel.

We continue to work on ourselves every day and continue to optimize in order to become even better in all areas. Do you notice anything else where we can improve? Feel free to contact us!
