Meetings for up to 80 people, dinners for up to 140 guests and garden receptions for up to 150 can be organised at Romantik Hotel Zum Klosterbräu, a former Benedictine convent in Bergen, part of Neuburg an der Donau, near Ingolstadt in Bavaria. The same family has run the house since 1744, and weddings can take over the whole hotel.
Seminars and company events
The conference offer uses five spaces. The Heutenne, set above the old malt loft, takes 4 to 80 people and has modern technology. The Kaminzimmer and the Kreativraum each take 4 to 30, and the Jakobstube suits small working groups of up to 10. In good weather a group of up to 10 can also work outdoors in the convent park. The hotel lists a projector, screen, flipcharts, pinboards, a moderation case, high-speed Wi-Fi and adjustable lighting, and seating is set up on request. The rooms have daylight.
Breaks and evenings can move to the Malztenne for fireside talks, to the Badehaus in the Zehntstadel with its steam bath and whirlpool, or to the gym with Technogym equipment. The park is used for outdoor activities.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings are sold as the Klosterbräu Exclusiv package. The couple books the entire hotel with all its rooms, starts with a Bavarian evening on arrival day, celebrates in the event rooms and ends with a shared breakfast in the Malztenne the next morning. The team arranges the church ceremony in the Bergen Münster, helps with music and table decoration, and the in-house patisserie makes the wedding cake. Christmas parties, family celebrations and business dinners each have their own request form.
Rooms and capacities
The Malztenne, the former malt loft of the convent brewery, holds 30 to 140 guests, has an open fireplace and opens onto the convent garden, which takes up to 150. The Kaminzimmer seats 30 at a long table or 60 at round tables. The Gaststube, about 500 years old, can be booked exclusively for up to 50, with a side room by the tiled stove for 12. The Jakobstube takes 24, or 40 when joined to the Johann-Baptist-Stube. Smaller options are the Biedermeier Blaues Zimmer for 12, the Bräustüberl for up to 24 and the Salettl, a garden pavilion with old stone columns for 30.
Accommodation
Rooms are spread across the main house, the Klosterhof, the Heutenne, the garden and the simpler Pilgerhaus opposite. They range from classic doubles and singles to junior suites of 50 square meters with terrace or balcony and a 70 square meter suite facing the convent garden. Guests also use a 20 meter outdoor pool heated to 29 °C, a panoramic sauna and a natural pond.
Catering
All food comes from the hotel's own kitchen and patisserie, based on regional produce. Lunch and dinner are served daily, the apple strudel uses fruit from the convent garden, and the wine list includes VDP estate wines. Feinschmecker named the house among Germany's best inns for 2025, and the Michelin Guide recommends it.
History and setting
The convent was founded in 976 for Benedictine nuns. A natural stone wall about one kilometer long survives from the 14th century, and the Gaststube, the cloister and the old brewery malt loft are still in use. The Böhm family is now in its tenth generation here, and the whole ensemble is a protected monument. Next door stands the baroque Heilig Kreuz church with its Romanesque tower, and the Altmühltal nature park begins nearby.
Getting there
The hotel stands at Kirchplatz 1 in Neuburg-Bergen. Ingolstadt is the nearest large town, and Munich Airport is the closest international airport.
