Top Rothenburg ob der Tauber Hotel Reviews

Hotel Sonne

10/10 Excellent

"Without question, one of the nicest hotels I’ve stayed at in recent times. Super helpful staff (Isabella) helped with parking, dinner recommendations and even selecting a local German spirit for a night cap. Fabulous room, hotel, location and breakfast just put the icing on the cake. Can not speak highly enough of the hotel, staff and vibe."

Prinzhotel Rothenburg

8/10 Good

Hotel zum Breiterle - Self-Check-In

10/10 Excellent

"A really clean and friendly hotel just as you enter the walled old town. It has its own parking just across the road at a very reasonable 10 euros a night. Breakfast was simple but plentiful. Mike, the host was very helpful, even carrying a case up 2 flights of stairs. But top of the class goes to Lara, his daughter who was an exceptional breakfast host. Thank you so much for making our stay as pleasant as it was."

AKZENT Hotel Schranne

10/10 Excellent

"Great"

Hotel Rappen Rothenburg ob der Tauber

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed for 2 nights. The location was relatively close to the places we wanted to visit. Our room was clean and spacious. The included breakfast was excellent, with a variety of hot and cold offerings. We would certainly stay here again. One small criticism -- we had booked a "junior suite" in order to have a larger sized bed but had not realized that this "suite" was a "2-story" unit in an unattached second building. Fortunately, the weather was good and walking to the main building for breakfast was not a problem. All in all, this was a minor "complaint" and we were quite satisfied with our stay. Regarding parking, we did not use a car but the hotel's parking lot seemed quite ample."
