Group Apartment Bacharach | up to 16 guests | Castle View & Balcony

Bacchus Holiday Homes is the vacation-rental brand in the UNESCO Upper Middle Rhine Valley — built for maximum experiences per hour: Rhine romance, castles, hiking, and a fresh perspective every day.

Altstadtquartier 16 is your flexible basecamp in the historic Old Town of Bacharach. This listing is the Entire Apartment (1–16 guests) — perfect for friends, families travelling together, clubs, and small groups, and also a great choice for 2–4 guests who simply want more space, more privacy, and the balcony highlight with castle views.

Why this works especially well for longer stays
Welcome to Altstadtquartier 16 – the large group apartment by Bacchus Holiday Homes in Bacharach.

The accommodation is located in the historic old town of Bacharach, in the UNESCO Upper Middle Rhine Valley, and can be booked as a full apartment for up to 16 guests. It is especially suitable for families, groups of friends, hiking groups, clubs, small retreats, wine weekends and shared stays in the Middle Rhine Valley.

The main advantage: you stay together in one central place instead of being split across several hotel rooms. Altstadtquartier 16 combines two areas within one house, offering more structure, more privacy and better shared living quality than a typical group apartment.

Layout and atmosphere

The accommodation offers several sleeping areas, open galleries, shared living areas, a kitchen, 2 bathrooms plus a separate toilet, and a balcony. All bedrooms have a view towards Stahleck Castle. The apartment extends over several levels and combines Bacharach old-town atmosphere with a modern holiday-apartment setup.

The sleeping arrangement is intentionally transparent: up to 12 guests sleep comfortably in beds. For guests 13–16, additional sleeping options such as sofa beds and partly open gallery areas are available. This works especially well for families, groups of friends and teams who are comfortable with flexible sleeping arrangements.

Castle view and balcony

All bedrooms have a view towards Stahleck Castle. The balcony is another highlight of the full apartment: morning coffee, a glass of wine in the evening, planning the next day together or simply enjoying the Bacharach atmosphere – without having to go anywhere else.

Location in Bacharach

Altstadtquartier 16 is centrally located in Bacharach’s historic old town. The Rhine promenade, train station, boat pier, restaurants, wine taverns, bakery and RheinBurgenWeg are within easy walking distance. This also makes the accommodation suitable for guests travelling with little or no car use.

Bacharach is a strong basecamp for the Middle Rhine Valley: Rhine romance, castles, hiking, wine villages, river cruises and day trips to the Loreley, St. Goar, Kaub, Oberwesel, Bingen, Rüdesheim, Boppard or Koblenz can be easily combined from here.

Digital travel planning

Guests also receive digital information about the accommodation and the surrounding area. The Middle Rhine Explorer and the Middle Rhine AI Concierge support planning for hiking routes, castles, wine villages, river cruises, restaurants and day trips from Bacharach. This is especially helpful for groups with different interests.
