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.

    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.

    Rothenburg ob der Tauber is a such nice small town, but with everything. Highly recommend joining the tour with Night Watchman. There's a lot to learn about the history, the buildings, cultures, and so on.

    A remarkable town.

    A remarkable town. We arrived knowing nothing about it and were stunned at what a beautiful place it is, possibly the most complete medieval town I've every seen. We only had one evening there, so I felt on another trip I could stay longer and see more.

    This was the perfect stay for our one night visit to Rothenburg ob der tauber for the Christmas markets. The room was comfortable, had lift access and was exceptionally quiet. The shower over bath was an odd design but we figured it out. The bed was quite small however manageable. The staff were very friendly and helped us get our bags to our room in the annex building along with finding the car park. Definitely try the on site restaurant while you are there. The dinner was delicious!

    Amazing location. Just inside the city walls, parking just moments away and very affordable via accomodation. Great layout for a family of 4 - big rooms and space. Clean, great kitchen setup - you do need to clean up after yourself but no issues (dishwasher tablets & liquid supplied). No clothes washing facilities however ok assuming next location has them if travelling for a long time. wouldn’t think twice about staying here if I’m Rothenburg ob der Tauber again.

    It was a lovely small hotel with friendly personal. The location is only around 10 Minutes to the main centre of the Rothenburg ob der Tauber. The breakfast is not huge but more than enough and delicious.
