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.

    My family loves to visit Rothenburg ob der Tauber.

    My family loves to visit Rothenburg ob der Tauber. The town is very walkable and there are plenty of places to explore for a few days. Check out the museum's and take your time walking through the park outside the walls. If staying overnight take a trip with the nightwatchman. Rothenburg ob der Tauber is beautiful in Autumn and magical at Christmas.

    There are many people that fleet through Rothenburg on a day tour but it does help to have a couple of days to walk around the outskirts of the city wall, to truly appreciate the place. We stumbled upon a little playground outside the city walls and it was the best time we had. There are some good restaurants but do read the reviews; Michaelango was a win as was the Taj Mahal. The restaurants and some shops do seem to indicate a preference for cash over card. It will also be wise to plan where to park beforehand and to understand the charges of parking within the city walls. Also, if you drive within the city walls, be prepared for narrow cobbled streets and driving through ancient gateways.

    It's a magical Christmas town that I'm so happy I made the trek out to mid snow storms. Easy to navigate and has some fun shops. One of my favorite things was walking around and enjoying the Christmas markets. The night watchman tour was really interesting. The train station is the main way to get there. Easy to navigate from there to the town. Eat at the only Italian restaurant or any of the local German ones. Though make a reservation ! They fill up fast. A medieval town with a rich history and strong tourist infrastructure. Experience a magical wonderland especially during the advent season.

    We loved our time here, it was just too short!

    We loved our time here, it was just too short! So much history to absorb, the wall to walk, the towers, the beautiful valley! Too little time to take it all in properly. I would recommend at least two days and nights here.

    It's one of our favorite places in Germany.

    It's one of our favorite places in Germany. This was our second year going to the Christmas market there and third time visiting old town. It's quaint, walkable, and so full of history. This won't be our last time visiting.

    A simple, quaint hotel, great location; close proximity to the town centre. A 30 minute stroll. It was a good atmosphere in the hotel. The staff were attentive, helpful and accommodating. We ate dinner at the restaurant, it was good value for money. Authentic German cuisine. Breakfast was an additional cost, we felt it was overpriced although there was a good selection of food. We stopped here as part of our journey on the Romantic Road We would consider staying here again if we returned to Rothenburg

    Excellent experience. I can't say enough good things about it. The hotel is right in the middle of the old town, close to everything. Its absolutely charming and spotlessly clean. The bed was comfortable, the shower was modern and had good water pressure. The spa was beautiful and relaxing. The staff were very pleasant and helpful throughout. I will recommend it to everyone and hopefully come back also.

    Exceptional hotel with a friendly staff and great location. We loved our roomy suite which had a terrace that was part of the old wall. The location is excellent just a quick walk outside the bustle of the Christmas markets but close enough to shopping, restaurants, etc. Rothenburg is exquisite and this hotel is a gem. Highly recommend and I can't wait to return.

    I had a hire car and was concerned about parking. There was a large free car park at the rear of the hotel. Also location was perfect. I wanted to be close to the walled town but not inside the walls. Hotel Rappen is about 200m from one of the walled town gates. Couldn't be better.
