Golf among mammoth trees in the castle garden

An 18-hole round under 250-year-old Sequoia giant trees increases the desire to play a good score on the rather demanding tracks. Because even on the short par-4 lanes (280 to 350 m), only well-placed punches make for a par. Most greens are effectively defended by wide and deep bunkers, precision when approaching the flag is paramount. In the beautiful parkland with many exotic trees and bushes are missing only bodies of water, so that ball losses are extremely rare. The multiple crossing of a busy street requires additional attention, but is not a disruptive factor in the game flow. On two of the par 3 courses, distances up to 190 meters do not allow easy birdie for each player. Some sloping fairways cause curious layers of the ball, sometimes up to 50 m away from the landing point. Despite the extreme dryness since spring, the fairways are still in a pretty green state, all 18 greens are immaculate lush green, but a little too sanded. In the secretariat, the friendly and above all golf-competent information of the charming staff invites to a quick repetition of a guest tour. With the introduction of attractively priced days of action (eg every second Monday of the month 50% discount on the green fee), the guest performance could certainly be forced. AMY 06.09.2018

Perfect parkland course

If you love parkland courses and classic ambience, the place is an absolute must.

The fairways all not very long, but in late April already in very good condition. The old trees absolutely worth seeing. Staff and players very friendly (was allowed to play through as a single player 2x).

Unusual for such a place: 2 mats (lanes 2 & 16), and the fact that lane 18 passes over the driving range (once the bell rings, and the play operation on the range is stopped until the playgroup has passed the range).

Unexpectedly

The place was long on the list of places that I once wanted to have played. That's why I signed up for a round of men's golf in 2017, as well as the green fee prices are much cheaper.

The park and the driveway to the hotel are very impressive.
The condition was really good. When you play it for the first time, it's not that easy. Partly also a bit strange tracks. I had not counted on the mats on several lanes, but to be honest. These are probably due to the tall trees and therefore not enough sun. The roads you cross several times, are also quite busy, which of course you hear on the square.

All in all, a nice golf afternoon, but I'm not sure if I want to play it again. There are places in the Rhine-Main area that I like much better.

Beautiful old park and good games asked

I played the place in Oct 2017 for my birthday. For me until now the most beautiful place in Germany. Very interesting and varied lanes, it will not be boring! For the first time the par 3 overlooking the castle would of course be "the signature hole" but if you play more often you can call several other tracks a favorite. I was also impressed by nature, did not think that it could be so beautiful in Central Germany. The locals were all friendly and like to smile. I definitely want to come back. As a guest but only weekdays.

A must and gorgeous

Great place, in my opinion one of the most beautiful in Germany. Not quite easy, although quite short, but always a challenge - even after tagelangem rain. In addition, a club-gastronomy in the Schlosshotel, which while in friendliness of the quality of the place not next. Perhaps the most beautiful hole: a couple 3 with a view of the castle... a lot of fun and nice game...

Altehrwürdig

What a great place for German standards!
The fairways were long due to the heat pretty brown and hard, and so the game remembered in the enchanting castle park almost at London Heath Golf on the corresponding precious meadows!
Very British general to gehts!
That cross a few lanes or are pretty close to each other in part, makes the charm of this old place!
Old places may be a bit different than the 0-8 -15 Country Meadows, of which our country is virtually littered!
The trees is amazing, the palatial castle and the greens were on our visit very quickly and in excellent condition!
All in all, nearly 5 stars, I only world class - give courses!
Kronberg is in the top 25 in Germany!

Your Royal Ness!

Supposedly the Queen sometimes lands by helicopter on the lawn. These qualities are related to the Prince of Hesse, and the turn is the great site. Let's face it, it's a wonderful walk in the park, and by the way golf is played. Moreover, the well-Kronberger evenings can be gelunzt in the gardens - that goes from the street rarely. Most irritating in the summer when the flowers bloom. Terrific. And then please book a table on the terrace of the castle hotel for dinner. If already - because already. No. 3 star - 5 star ambience with Coat of Arms.

Golfing between nostalgia and luxury

Even the entrance to the grounds of Schloss Friedrichshof (19th century) is connected to an "ahhh" effect. To lock it goes along the beautiful administration building of the Hessian House Foundation and the fourth path of the golf course. Arrived in the parking lot, you will find yourself in front of the most beautiful clubhouse Germany. The clubhouse is located in the west wing of the castle, separated from the 5 star hotel.

The course covers the entire park of Schloss Friedrichshof. The unique planting around the tracks is due to the early design of the park. I know of no other golf course on which so many gigantic rhododendrons are to be found. The game track course to 17 Hole well to very well controlled. One must, however, be fit in order to remove some meters on foot can. Electro-carts are prohibited on the premises. The 18th Hole can only be reached by crossing the driving range. So you will not be shot down, the Golf Club has placed a bell on the web. By a "tinkling" the practitioners are invited to the driving range to allow the player to play through on the track. The course of the 18th fairway Hole in my eyes is the biggest minus point that clings to the place. However, this is due to a cool biker on the sun terrace of the clubhouse, right next to the 15th tee Hole relative.

The club has a very elitist membership structure. It is relatively difficult to be a full member. However, the green fee rates for guests are very fair and you do not have to struggle with tee times as is the case in most of the surrounding clubs. The 14th Tee tee is the most beautiful person I know. It plays directly to the castle and should be in striking distance not misjudge too strong, so the ball does not land in the coffee cup of a hotel guest on the castle terrace. On the whole, the system is worth a little trip!

Great Park / Quirky Place

The GC Kronberg is nestled in the fabulous palace garden of the castle hotels located there.
Mature trees impresses visitors and makes you want to play a round at the course.
From the outset it must be clear: this is not about a golf course modern type, location and geographic conditions and stringent environmental regulations have an upgrade or update made more or less impossible.
Summer greens are available between May and September otherwise pays tribute to a clay soil, the playing golf can be an ordeal for greater moisture.
Even the driving range, the maximum distance 160m and ends at the 18th Game railway crossing, is a quirky compromise rather than a real training opportunity.
This golfing deficits are, however, offset by an excellent Gastonomie and friendliness of the staff again.
Anyone looking for great golfing experiences, travels there in vain, who, however, nostalgic, golfing ambience awaits with feel-good factor will not be disappointed.

Beautiful place - old trees and narrow fairways

Despite the relatively short holes and just a Par 68, the golf and country club Kronberg a round eV is definitely worth it. The old trees, narrow fairways, well manicured fairways and greens and every golfer enjoy the great environment (in). The tracks are quite challenging and a precise precision stroke technique is needed - the driver is only needed on a few tracks, more important is a good strategy to choose.
Why was there no five stars for the rating: Unfortunately, there are some teas from the nearest green quite far away and you have to go back and cross other paths. Unfortunately Moreover, the hole 18 is really disappointing - after it was allowed to play 17 holes beautiful - because you have to play on the driving range and thus one finds his ball, all driving range balls are yellow. Perhaps there is still a better solution...
Still, overall this is a great place and I will definitely play again in Kronberg.
