Preface
Feel-good factor
Travel is always about new things, meeting different people, enjoying unique and memorable moments – whether you’re on holiday or travelling on business. But have you ever been away, discovering new and curious things, yet felt something is missing? That homely feeling, a longing for the familiar, for simple comforts? That feeling of being at home is what we try to give back to you at the Maximilians. Because we want everything to feel right for you. Then, and only then, do we feel contented.
Your hosts
To Petra and Holger W. Hirsch, the Maximilians is more than just a hotel. It’s the fulfilment of a lifelong ambition.
The area
Along the wine route
A place to relax and enjoy yourself, along 50 miles (85km) of the German Wine Route, from the Wine Gate in Schweigen-Rechtenbach on the French border to Bockenheim in the north in Rhine-Hessen. The area along the wine route is Germany’s second biggest wine growing region and famous for its temperate climate.
Comforting travels
To be honest, most people want modern standards and comprehensive service for the lowest possible price – air conditioning, free WiFi, plenty of choice at the buffet, things that are now taken as given in hotels. Naturally, all of this is provided at the Maximilians. But we still want our guests to feel good about other bits to do with their stay. As hoteliers, we take personal responsibility for others. This starts with our staff, so we offer fair wages and don’t use temporary staff. Instead, we provide job security, a good salary and fixed contracts. Our region is also important to us, so as far as possible all food and drinks are sourced locally. We also avoid wasteful packaging, there’s a charging station for electric bikes in the underground car park (electric cars will be next) and all charging is powered by our own solar panels. Finally, we offer ‘green room rates’ so our ecologically minded guests can make a contribution to local sustainability projects. Why not join in?
Meetings & Celebrations
Meetings, get-togethers, celebrations
In collaboration with our business partners, we can offer a variety of multi-purpose rooms for that special occasion, whether the priority is function or flexibility, whether it’s for 20 people or 200, whether it’s a private function or for business. Tell us what you need and we’re here to help, in fact we positively enjoy providing you with support, helping with organisation and ensuring your guests are well looked after.
Some names and numbers for you
You’re probably not so interested in the fact that the average weight of our staff is just a bit more than the weight of a wine barrel, but you might like to know that the combined experience of our hotel team adds up to nearly 180 years.
