This traditional family-run hotel is set in a picturesque location in the Bavarian market-village of Kastl, in the Lauterachtal (Lauterach River Valley), in the midst of the Franconian Jura mountain range. A former monastery and a series of fine half-timbered houses provide a beautiful backdrop to the Gasthof Schwarzer Bär. Kastl is a state-recognized recuperation resort, and the hiking and cycling paths will ensure you enjoy your stay in the area, whether you are seeking an active vacation or mere relaxation in these calm surroundings. You can enjoy a good night's sleep in a quiet room by the market square, 500 ft from the main road. Wake up in the mornings to a rich hotel breakfast (included in the rate). For dinner try out the full range of regional and seasonal delicacies. Rent a bike right from the hotel, and explore the scenic area on 2 wheels.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 8.3 for a two-person trip.

    We stayed one night on the way to Prague, it's 10min from the A6 and totally worths it. Nice room, decent breakfast and sweet Greek kitchen nearby.
