The hotel itself delivered on old-world style, until you entered the suite, where the clean and modern accommodation blew me away. This property was so enjoyable and outstanding, professional staff. We had a fuse blow out in the room and a lovely young lady came up to help within minutes. Don’t forget to start your day with a tremendous Buffett of heathy and homemade options. Save room for the most wonderful bread, cheese, and yogurt. What a way to begin your day before the Christmas market!

FAQs about hotels in Rothenburg ob der Tauber

Out of a Fairytale

The half-timbered buildings, cobbled streets and brightly painted façades of medieval Rothenburg ob der Tauber wouldn’t be out of place in a fairytale. Several fantastical films have been set in this gem on the scenic Romantic Road, passing from Würzburg to Füssen via Bavaria’s most enchanting towns.

Uniquely designed gates allow access to the historic centre through walls partly covered with tiled roofs. Walking along the walls offers a different perspective of the town’s colourful flowers, step gables and towers. The town hall has the tallest tower, whose far-reaching views include the large Marktplatz, home of the Christmas market. The Christmas Museum is a year-round winter wonderland, as is the shop of Käthe Wohlfahrt, the internationally renowned German Christmas decoration producer.

On a different note, the Crime Museum houses medieval torture instruments including a ducking stool. Holy Blood and Last Supper altarpieces form the focal point of towering St James’ Church, a stop on the Santiago de Compostela pilgrimage route.

In the River Tauber valley outside the centre are lush gardens, one containing Toppler Castle, a bizarre structure resembling a house on a tower. Also in the valley is a double-arched stone bridge.

The Rothenburg ob der Tauber accommodation on Booking.com includes traditional guest houses and family hotels with a spa and parking.

Rothenburg is a staple.

Rothenburg is a staple. But also an instagram hotspot and tourist trap. Restaurants are expensive for the traditional, cheap food they provide. Best food and atmosphere in the "Alter Keller" restaurant. A must do, is the walk around the city wall, in a weather protected gallery on top of the wall, all around the city with best views and far enough away from the crowd.

We’ve been there before and always enjoy visiting.

We’ve been there before and always enjoy visiting. It’s a beautiful and historic medieval town that is protected by a double ring of fortifications upon which you can walk. Not far from the Frankfurt airport. Incredible views, great restaurants and shopping. In a word: MAGICAL! And the food of this region in Germany is fantastic!

This is a very touristy place, but we enjoyed our stay. Get out early in the morning to have your photos taken in the best spots without lots of people from the bus tours in the background. Walking around the walls was very enjoyable. Lots of small interesting shops if that's your thing.

It is a picturesque city with a unique experience, somewhat allowing an impression of how life was in the medieval ages. Also the surrounding area is great for walks. It is very interesting to explore this city and dive into medieval history in the medieval crime and justice museum (which I would highly recommend, to get the right primer to the Rothenburg experience. Just be aware that there are very, very many tourists. This also means you might want to pick your restaurants carefully... There are very nice restaurants, but some might just look nice and offer just mediocre meals - as expected for tourist magnets. Overall I was positively surprised that such a gem still exists. Definitively worth visiting.

I visited Rothenburg 14 years ago & couldn't wait to get back. This time I brought my 2 adult children who just loved it & will be bringing their children one day. Very sorry to hear Anneliese Frieze had passed away. Lovely lady. We walked the whole town, did lots of fantastic shopping. My son & daughter climbed the town hall tower & did the Night watchman walk, which they thoroughly enjoyed. We had our dinners at our hotel, Gasthaus Alter Keller & loved the food & great staff. Our hotel was only 200m to the main square - fantastic position.

Whilst the town is always full of visitors from all over the world, it’s a magical place, so do visit. Over the past 40 years this must have been my 8th or 9th visit and it never fails to disappoint. It’s much more than the famous Christmas Shop, so do get off the main Square and streets to walk the walls. The tour with the Night Watchman was excellent.

Really comfortable room (bed, space, bathroom) and superb experience overall. Staff was attentive, helpful and sympathetic. Location can barely be any better as this is in the heart of altstadt. The hotel restaurant is incredible! I enjoyed the most delicious schäufelle in Germany there. I also definitely recommend the local sparkling wine. The apfel strudel was a work of art. Nice and polite staff there as well. The breakfast was good. Not hugely varietied but with all the basics for all tastes, with tasty local products as well.
