We loved our stay. The location is very convenient and fun. I took off a star because the beds were very uncomfortable so we got very little sleep. Breakfast was an extra fee and wasn’t very good.

Quaint hotel centrally located in the heart of the city. Exactly what you are looking for when staying in Rothenburg ob der Tauber. When you step outside the hotel you find yourself surrounded by shops and restaurants and stunning views in ever direction. The room was clean and spacious. The hotel offers parking in the back which is great because there is not a lot of off street parking available in the area.

The room was simple but really clean and super-cosy. I also loved it’s traditional styled building. And the best thing were friendly and kind staffs, and of course their cute dog!
I used their restaurant, too. Chef’s schnitzel was awesome. For my taste, it was the best schnitzel ever.

We enjoyed our room in this beautiful little Inn, in the middle of old town Rothenburg. Everything was to our liking. Nice breakfast and very friendly staff. Would stay there again!

We think it is the best hotel in Rothenburg, We have been staying there since 1986. They are good folks and run a first class hotel.
The food is great also.

Terrific historic inn. Central location, and welcoming staff. Gigantic breakfast included in the room rate. Only challenge is driving on the tight historic streets and parking in the tight lot behind the inn. You’ve earned your beer once you’ve managed to put your car away for the night.

This quaint hotel is only a few doors down from the square where the market is. It is so convenient to access the square, the shops and all the restaurants. The hotel is very old and has a lot of character! We got our laundry done here and they had it back the same day! The restaurant is great, the goulash is delicious. The breakfast is well presented and there is lots to eat. The staff were very friendly. I would stay here again.

Amazing.
In good meaning, the price doesn't match the service.
Location is just next to central, the building is historical and nostalgic.
The price is under 100 usd per night even though breakfast is included.
