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.

The town itself is really a great example of a medieval walled town. Getting to walk the walls, look inside the old churches, and eat/stay in local establishments adds to the experience. The topper for us was the added bonus of a festival occurring during our visit!AAnonymous - 10Scored 10

Rothenburg ob der Tauber has met my expectations of cute, romantic well preserved medieval town , loved the historic museum of the torture , learned lot of things there , definitely loved that we stayed for couple nights unlike most of tourists come only for a day. We loved walking around the fortress where we took great photos and explored some of the insides too. Walking around is easy coz everything is very near. I can highly recommend Zur Holle Restaurant, lovely staff and food. Highly recommend this town to every travellers and especially those who love history. I would definitely come back again.KamilaAustralia - 8.0Scored 8.0

Beautiful town and we were very happy we included it on our tour. Walking the wall was a great experience but you really don't have to walk the whole thing. We were there in the shoulder season, March, and pretty much nothing opened, shops & museums, until 2pm when the tour busses arrived. We specifically stayed overnight because of advice to be there without "hordes" of tourists and to see the town lit up. Problem was that there isn't any exterior lighting and we had the town pretty much to ourselves all morning. When the tour busses leave it turns into a ghost town. Shops close, which are all cheap tourist shops and not interesting anyway. Also, we had an extremely difficult time finding a place for dinner. There aren't many restaurants and because of that reservations are required. Happy we saw the town but spending six hours would have been enough.

Old town is the place to be.
Old town is the place to be. Beautiful architecture, history and it really feels like you are in Pinocchio’s fairytale village. Worth visiting and you don’t need more than 2-3 nights to fully explore it. And you can walk everywhere.

We stayed three nights and spent 2-1/2 days in the old town.
We stayed three nights and spent 2-1/2 days in the old town. We’ve been here many times but there’s plenty to see and do. We recommend the Rothenberger Handworker’s house tour, an ancient house unchanged since the 1700s, St Jakob’s church, the criminal museum, the night watchman’s tour, and walking the town’s perimeter walls and towers. These help illustrate medieval life and how people lived back then, and how good we have it today!

This is a stunning walled medieval town!
This is a stunning walled medieval town! You can walk around most of the wall - stork nests can be seen if you look carefully! Every street is beautiful with gift shops and cafes. The castle gardens are great to relax in and at the bottom you are rewarded with an amazing view down to the river Tauber.JaneUnited Kingdom

- From € 118.80 per night7.9Scored 7.9GoodRated good· 1,646 reviewsA 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.

- From € 99 per night8.3Scored 8.3Very goodRated very good· 864 reviewsVery good traditional German guesthouse right in the centre of Rothenburg ob der Tauber, about 900 metres from the railway station. It is in one of those cute, old half-timbered houses. The owner was friendly and upgraded me to a double room. The room was basic but very clean. Breakfast was also good with varieties of bread, cheese, cold cuts, yoghurt, fruit and berries. As a bonus, there was a small general store downstairs, owned by the same family, and a very good kebab place next door.
KatariinaFinland - From € 212 per night8.8Scored 8.8FabulousRated fabulous· 3,886 reviewsThis 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!
AlessiaAustralia - From € 212 per night8.8Scored 8.8FabulousRated fabulous· 3,886 reviewsPeople typically travel to Rothenburg ob der Tauber because it's an amazingly preserved, old city. So it's not fair to expect super modern places to stay. This hotel was reminiscent of an old Gasthaus from the pre-AirBnb days. The check in was friendly and we witnessed them being very patient with a couple of "challenging" travelers ahead of us. The room was large enough and clean, and some modern touches, like outlets close to the bed, were appreciated. The location was perfect.

Otto was a gracious host and we wish we could have stayed longer than one night. For how old the town is, this hotel was a perfect mix of the old and new. Ameneties were all modern, but had the best classic touches. The terrace provided a beautiful view of the valley and river. Parking was available just across the hotel at a reasonable price (€10).
