After spending a few days in the quaint, quiet and picturesque Rhine River Valley, we were surprised at the city of Trier. It's certainly not a metropolis, but busier and more bustling than we expected. For this reason, we are very glad we chose Hotel Petriseburg which is situated above the city away from the hustle and bustle and has... More

We stayed here for twonights in September. This hotel's location is on a hill overlooking Trier and the views are glorious. Our room was at the back and though we would have loved the view over Trier watching the animals on the hillside was most entertaining. We were given good advice abour restaurants in town in which to eat. We... More

I could not imagine a hotel with a nicer and more relaxing view of Trier. Helmut made sure we were very comfortable. The breakfast was a perfect way to start a day. I will find another reason to come to Trier just to stay there again. Nice job Helmut!

With all the interesting decor touches, this hotel was almost an attraction in itself. On top of that, the host was very gracious (and very patient with our attempts to speak German). The breakfast was excellent. There is a pleasant 20-minute walk into town -- downhill on the way in, but uphill on the way back. For those who do... More

My family and I travelled to Europe on July 3rd. Landed in Frankfurt and headed to Trier. We didn't have a hotel booked but came upon this hotel in Rick Steve's Germany book. Needless to say, the hotel was amazing. The owner, Helmut immediately offered a family of four, 2 rooms. The rooms were comfortable and spotless. The view we... More

We stayed at Hotel Petrisberg in 2005. It was a dream of an experience: the snow fell thickly outside and the proprietor prepared an excellent dinner for us with little notice. This time, the weather was better and we were able to take in more of the town. As for the hotel, it continues to wow us: every room and... More

We have stayed there twice this year. It is really nice to be greeted by name and welcomed. Both times making the reservation was simplicity itself and everything was in order. We love the breakfast with so many home made specialities. A different omelet type concoction on the hot plate, a traditional gulash soup made by the brother of the... More

Excellent service, awesome views, delicious breakfast.

While not all rooms have the view, all rooms will have the excellent service and lovely setting. The walking path to town was well groomed and a nice way to begin and end the day. Breakfast was excellent. Historical overview of the hill was provided by the family, and provided us with a deeper appreciation of what we saw over... More
