Hotel Am Tiergarten suits small meetings, training days and incentive trips for up to 25 people, with 52 bedrooms on site and a restaurant that has fed racing teams and fans for decades. The hotel is in Nürburg, in the Eifel region of Germany, beside the Nürburgring circuit, and it is open all year.
Seminars and company events
The hotel has one meeting room for groups of up to 25. It comes equipped with a whiteboard, a projector, a flipchart, a television, video playback, an overhead projector and a large projection screen. This makes it a fit for a sales workshop, a technical training day or a team meeting that ends with time at the circuit. The hotel also offers motorsport services, including a workshop service for cars and information on the public driving sessions on the Nordschleife, which companies can build into an incentive program.
Rooms and capacities
The single meeting room seats up to 25 people. The hotel does not publish its floor area or layouts, so the setup for a boardroom, U-shape or classroom is agreed with the team. Meals and evening gatherings take place in the Pistenklause and the café.
Accommodation
The hotel has 52 bedrooms, enough to house a whole training group or a team arriving for a track day. Because the hotel stays open throughout the year, groups can book outside the main racing weekends as well.
Catering
The Pistenklause is the hotel's own restaurant, with a broad menu, and the hotel café serves during the day. Lunch and dinner for a meeting group are taken in-house, and the restaurant is a familiar address for visitors to the circuit.
History and setting
The Schmitz family opened the hotel in 1969 together with the Pistenklause. Their daughter, Sabine Schmitz, grew up here and became one of the best-known figures of the Nürburgring: she won the 24-hour race on the circuit outright twice and drove the official BMW Ring Taxi for more than ten years. That connection with racing still shapes the house, and many guests come for the track. The hotel sits in Nürburg, a small village below its medieval castle ruins, surrounded by the wooded hills of the Eifel.
Getting there
Nürburg is reached by car; most groups drive in or arrange a coach. The nearest major airports are Cologne Bonn and Frankfurt, each a drive of around one to two hours. The circuit's own access roads lead directly to the village.
