Landhotel Sternwirt hosts seminars and training days for 8 to 90 people, weddings for up to 140 guests, and company, Christmas and family parties. The family-run country hotel stands on the Schloßplatz in Högen, part of Weigendorf in the Upper Palatinate, in the Högenbach valley between Nuremberg and Amberg, at the edge of the Veldensteiner Forst nature park.
Seminars and company events
Three meeting rooms with daylight and technical equipment serve meetings from small working groups to full seminars. Each comes with a projector, screen, DSL and WLAN, pinboards and flipcharts, with further equipment on request. A day meeting package without overnight stay covers a welcome breakfast, a two-course lunch with a choice of three menus, an afternoon coffee break with a snack and drinks during the sessions. The hotel also builds individual programs and suggests activities and excursions in the surrounding countryside. Company parties, Christmas dinners, events and bus or club trips are part of its regular business.
Weddings and receptions
The renovated, air-conditioned dining hall seats up to 140 guests, with a bar corner, a movable stage and a partition that closes the room down for smaller groups. Menus can be served plated, on platters, as a buffet or with front cooking, with dishes such as wedding soup, beef carpaccio, beef tenderloin, duck breast, zander, Schäufele, venison, Kaiserschmarrn and apple strudel. A wedding booklet sets out the services. The house also hosts christenings, communions, confirmations and birthdays.
