Hiking in the Siebengebirge – Nature Begins at Your Doorstep

Leave everyday life behind with every step through the scenic trails of the Siebengebirge. Starting right at the hotel, these paths wind through ancient forests and past dramatic viewpoints and ruins. Guest favorites include the route to the Heisterbach Monastery ruins and the climb up to Drachenfels for sweeping views over the Rhine.

Weingut Pieper – Our Trusted Wine Partner in the Region

Located on the sun-drenched slopes of the Drachenfels, Weingut Pieper is North Rhine-Westphalia’s largest winery – and a valued partner of our hotel. This family-owned estate stands for exceptional quality and authentic regional character.

Many of the wines served in our restaurants and at the bar come directly from Pieper. Curious to learn more or visit the winery for a tasting? Just speak to our team – we’ll be happy to assist.

Experience History – The Petersberg and its “Schauplatz"

The Petersberg has shaped political history. As the former guest house of the Federal Republic of Germany, it welcomed heads of state and played a key role in the postwar era.

Right next to the hotel, the “Schauplatz Petersberg” exhibition offers a multimedia journey through these moments – from the Petersberg Agreement of 1949 to the site's unique natural heritage.

Exclusive House Tours – Experience the Hotel’s Legacy

The Steigenberger Grandhotel & Spa Petersberg is more than a luxurious retreat – it is a witness to history. Our private historical tours offer insight into the hotel’s diplomatic significance, architectural evolution and the many prominent figures it has hosted over the decades.

These guided experiences are designed for guests with a deeper interest in the historical importance of the property as a former state guest house of Germany.
