Summer fun at Wartburg Castle - Golden Mary and colorful cocktails
by Simon Schwarz
Around 200 guests danced late into the night at the Romantik Hotel auf der Wartburg summer party
At the beginning of the summer fun, however, the rain initially caused the program to be changed. However, the good-humored guests were not disturbed by this and actively helped to clear the tables in the Wartburg's Wappensaal. Even the opening speech by hotel director Hannes Horsch was wetter than planned due to the downpour. Fortunately, the rain subsided afterwards and the 200 or so guests feasted and danced the night away at a summer chic party full of style, extravagance and charm until the early hours of the morning. The band "GOLDEN MARY" and DJ Darryl Ferrandino provided the perfect soundtrack
.The welcome drink, refreshing cocktails, wine, champagne, gin from the Eisenach-based manufacturer Martins Gink and the large dessert buffet turned the night into a summery delight and were highly praised by the visitors. The light show on the historic façade of the hotel was also met with enthusiasm.
Next Sommervergnügen on August 10, 2024
"The Sommervergnügen was a complete success despite the rain," commented Hotel Director Hannes Horsch after the party night. "We're already looking forward to next year! On August 10, 2024, we will be dancing and feasting again at the Romantik Hotel auf der Wartburg." Tickets are available at an early bird price with a 20 percent discount until July 9, 2023 by emailing info@wartburghotel.de or calling 03691/7970.

Guests of the hotel particularly appreciate the excellent gastronomy, the small, fine wellness area for relaxation and the warmth of all the staff.
