Pros +
- It's character-restaurant- location
- Charming old place off the beaten path of Kitzbûhel. Excellent dinner!
- This quaint, old-world castle was a charming place to stay & the hospitality was friendly, courteous & fun. The goulash-suppe was the best we EVER ate & the dining room was pretty. There’s a very comfy sofa in the ski boot room, typical of the attention given to detail in the castle.
Cons -
- A little pricey
- On check-out we were charged cca 20 EUR more than what booking.com advised. Without receipt. My bad I did not complain, I realized too late I could have shown them the info in application.
- We found noise travelled between our connecting rooms

Schloss Münicau is a secret gem close to the world renowned ski resort, Kitzbühl.It’s run by the wife and daughters of the founder who re built it with his own hands following a devastating fire many years ago.It oozes the traditional Austrian elegance and “old school” charm often lacking in more contemporary hotels.Plus the hosts famous ?? Austrian “gastfreundlichkeit” or “friendly towards guests” that make a solo traveler or family feel that they’re home from home.
Not a lot…
Beautiful castle-hotel, like a fairy tale. The lady in the restaurant was very kind as a real good fairy. Breakfast was delicious, dinner was fantastic, especially the apricot dumpling. A lot of living plant inside and in the garden. Several porcelain, decorative pillow. Realy wonderful place.

Well...it´s really extrordinary place...I have never slept in such old house before. I just missed Dracula...It´s not place for fearful people...
My windows were on street side...you can hear every single car...
Interesting accommodation in a castle with nice surroundings. The room is quite big and the whole building including the restaurant is very interesting and nice.The parking lot is sufficient, the chateau also has a garden with a swimming pool.
The hotel facilities were already a bit worn and out of date.Both the bed and the floor were very creaky, they urgently need restoration together with the chairs and armchair. Even the cleaning could be more thorough.There was no soap in the bathroom. It would also deserve a renewal.The breakfast was sufficient, but the cleanliness of the cutlery and tablecloths was not the best.
Great location , very special old interior, castle style, good breakfast, wonderful garden.
We had Problems right upon arrival: we did not receive the large superior room that we had booked ahead. The receptionist was not very polite nor helpful. He did not seem very literate regarding IT and their booking system. First we were offered a very small room under the roof. After our complaints we ended up in another, but much smaller room than the one we had booked . The staff receptionist was not very apologetic nor understanding. A rather unfriendly welcome!
Very nice style, really like a castle with many small details here and there that were completing the picture. A comfortable stay, amazing for a short stay for sure.
The location is somewhat remote, we needed to walk for ~30 minutes to come from the train stop (arriving in Kutzbühel in the evening), and a bit less to a bus stop the next day.
Atmosphere, breakfast, friendly personnel
The hot water was just slightly warm
It's a beautiful old castle - quirky - every room is different and has heaps of character - much more charming than a bog standard cookie cutter hotel.
It's a little bit tired - but that is why we like it! It's charming and we love staying there.
Breakfast was fine-Typical. Room was large.
Its an older building
This is a unique hotel, for sure. Interesting interior.
Two gypsies who clean the rooms steal things. Be carefull
Very good location close to ski resort (10 min by car) friendly and kind personnel, good breakfast

Spacious and comfortable room, lovely and walm, friendly welcome from the waiter in the restaurant (this was our fourth stay), lovely breakfast buffet.We love the authentic and quirky ambiance of Schoss Münichau.
The evening meal salad bar was a a bit samey and tired compared with our previous visits.
Breakfast was simple but more than enough, staff were extremely polite and checkin / out was easy. The location has an easy going flair... I was only there foe one night and it was uncomplicated.
I had a very small room, and the bathroom facilities are aged somewhat, could do with tidying up a bit.
Very old but well kept, beautiful views of the surrounding area and super friendly staff
Location was a big remote but not enough to cause issues. Busses came regularly and there are plenty of taxis available.
Staff is nice and funny. Breakfast was great.
The room was small, balcony is shared
All wrong.
Very bad sauna and on Sundays, they can't turn it on because the sauna technician is off no relaxation area - as it was written in the offer. Small selection of diner.. Reluctance to accept credit cards. Very small rooms and many times a non-functioning elevator.
