In the centre of the small wine town of Nierstein, the Best Western Wein-und Parkhotel Nierstein, Nierstein, Germany, has a Mediterranean air, with comfortable rooms, free Wi-Fi, a restaurant of regional and international cuisine, a wine bar, a lobby bar and a park terrace, a free sauna and swimming pool, and ten daylit meeting rooms.
The vineyards and the Rhine lie close by, with the wine town's cellars and the riverbank within easy reach. Mainz and the wine villages of Rhinehesse are a short drive away.
Nierstein is one of the great wine villages of Rhinehesse, strung along the Rhine where the famous Roter Hang, a steep slope of red slate, ripens some of Germany's finest Riesling. Cellars and wine taverns line the old streets, the river draws cyclists and boats along its banks, and vineyards roll back from the water in long green rows. Wine festivals fill the squares through the warmer months.
