Breakfast buffet with a great choice of food and drinks. Everything was fresh, with a lot of vegetables. The breakfast and restaurant room with a nice tables and comfortable chairs. Amazing food served by the chef in the evening, with different choices every day. Rooms are spacy, we got a nice one on the fourth floor with a side view of the river. Spa and pretty big swimming pool however at certain times it was pretty busy. Hotel is located on the bank of Elbe river, accessible by the ferry. Best for trails in Saxon Switzerland National Park and only 30 minutes walk to famous Bastei and Basteibrücke Bridge.

We hiked everyday while we were there. visited the Bastei bridge, comrig cave, and the artist path, we also drove to bas schandau and schmilka on the czeck border. all beautiful places to visit. we were hiking with 2 young kids, so we chose paths that were suitable for them, but there are hiking routes for everyone. Rathen is quite small, so very easy to get around, we had a car so could drive to other villages, not sure how public transportation works there.
We mostly cooked and ate in the house, but there are a few restaurants in Rathen and a lot more in bad schandau, although I found it hard to find quality dining and not just the old tourist restairants. I think the one in schmilka is really good but it was closed when we got there.

This is the most touristy part of Saxon Switzerland, next to the Basteibrücke. However, the nature is incredible, and if you go for a hike around sunrise, you may be lucky to enjoy the area without too many people. Around lunchtime, the Basteibrücke was packed like a bus and one had to stay in line to take a selfie, even in the beginning of November. There aren't many restaurants and we haven't tried any, we were eating in our hotel. There's one tiny shop on the side of the river that is close to the Basteibrücke that works until 3pm and sells almost nothing, so it better to buy food in advance.
Had everything. Fully stocked kitchen. Big living room. Reading nook with great views where you can listen to the rain and read. Comfortable beds. Large and new washer and dryer for hiking clothes. Outdoor picnic table in nice garden. Friendly and helpful hosts - who speak English if needed. Great location in the middle of Saxon Switzerland and the Malerweg. Rathen itself is definitely the most quaint of the towns on the Elbe. s-bahn just across the river.
Nicest place I have stayed in 10 years of European travel.
Excellent location, with a beautiful view on the Elbe river and the Altrathen castle. Villa Rapunzel itself is a very interesting and beautiful building, having its own tower, where you can lock a naughty princess ;) The landlords are very, very nice and friendly, and able to provide a lot of information regarding Rathen and neighbouring tourist attractions (in German language). If one wants to really enjoy Rathen and neighbouring attractions, they should come to Kurort Rathen for at least two weeks!
Very atmospheric place. The most hospitable hosts. Convenient location and comfortable apartments. Everything is clean and comfortable. There is a very clear road to the Saxon Switzerland Park. I recommend! The best place in Rathen
keys have to be collected from hotel some 200 m away but not a big deal
even though the house is close to a busy railway track it is well insulated and quiet (but the windows have to be closed)
