We could not have been happier with our stay at Hotel Reichsküchenmeister. Our room, a standard double, was small but adequate and comfortable. I am VERY particular when it comes to cleanliness in hotels, and our room was spotless. The only downside to this property is no air conditioning. We arrived the day before a heat wave, so it was still tolerable to sleep with the windows open, but not having air conditioning with the 90+ degree temps would have made sleeping very difficult. The hotel is centrally located and the restaurant was excellent. Wonderful views of the cathedral and plenty of shade! If we’re ever in Rothenburg again, we will absolutely stay at Hotel Reichsküchenmeister, a 5-star experience for a very reasonable rate. Thank you for such a lovely first stop in Germany!

The breakfast was very good. They had a buffet for the guests and also prepared an omelet or different styles of eggs, such as scrambled eggs, available on the buffet line. The staff was quick to clear the tables after a guest left, ensuring optimal seating availability.

Beautiful, modern hotel with excellent service. Our train from Berlin was delayed, thereby making us late to our rental car booking in Bamberg after-hours. We were stranded there until we figured out alternative travel to Rothenburg. We ended up arriving very late to the hotel and the staff were very accommodating. Beautiful, modern furnishings with very comfortable beds. We had 2 rooms next to each other. Our teenage kids weren't crazy about the open, see-through shower door in their room, but ours was enclosed. Location is excellent right outside the town gate.

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.

    We arrived around 1pm, and left the following day around 11am. I could have stayed another day. The town is quite large and while the day trippers come in and see the main street, there is so much more to do here - side streets to wander and shop, the city walls and outside the walls - many walking and biking paths. We will be back and plan to stay two nights.

    The town is always busy. If you like nature and walking, I recommend the area surrounding Rothenburg. The landscape is beautiful. I would recommend going up the Rathaus tower and viewing the town from way up.

    Absolute picture book place of the idyllic Bavarian Town.

    Absolute picture book place of the idyllic Bavarian Town. Plenty of wonderful street wandering to be done with many cafes and restaurants (mostly in the hotels). Being hypocritical for a moment, there are a lot of tourists visiting during the middle of the day. Staying in the town affords the opportunity to experience the place in the comparative quiet of the early morning or late evening.

    The location of the hotel was excellent, being very close to the main market square. All staff we encountered were super friendly. The parking garage was a huge plus given the limits on vehicles in the old town. The room was modern and very comfortable. And even given the location right on a main thoroughfare in town, we found the hotel to be very quiet after 5 p.m. once most of the day-trippers had left. I appreciated the little touches like the table reserved for us in the dining room and the excellent German breakfast on both days we were in Rothenburg o.d.T. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely choose this hotel again on our next visit.

    There were only two things which could have been better are the weather and fewer or no construction work places in the city. Otherwise everything about the city is great, including the food and the ice cream. We were there just after Easter and the mood of the city was still very festive. I took 614 photos of the city in two days.

    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.

    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!

    Ms Liebler was super nice and considerate. We messaged and she explained everything to the last detail. When we arrived she explained things got changed up in the last minute so she had to put us in a bigger apartment (we rented studio) but told us not to worry about extra charge! Apartment was nicely decorated, equipped with everything you need and perfectly clean. Boyfriend and I are already planning to come back to Rothenburg ob der Tauber and to Gästehaus Liebler!
