Set within a traditional villa, this charming hotel is located directly opposite the Würzburger Tor gate, or Galgentor, in the romantic Franconian town of Rothenburg ob der Tauber.

Mittermeier Staff was very attentive and friendly, the breakfast was outstanding with fresh local produce and each room has a special unique touch. What I really appreciated was the teams effort to minimize the eco impact by asking their guests to skip on the daily cleaning. Which I did and - surprisingly- got rewarded with some homemade honey and juice. Really nice touch!!! I can also really recommend dining at Villa Mittermeier also in case your are not staying with the Hotel. The food and quality was excellent paired with very good service. Well Done!

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 stayed in Rothenburg for three nights in the middle of a 2.5 week trip to several cities in Germany/Austria and used it as an opportunity to relax and 'charge our batteries'. It was a perfect stop for this. It is a quiet little town that has more charm than you can imagine. Many great restaurants and some very cool museums. The old buildings and city wall are awesome. We could have stayed there much longer, and will hopefully do so someday soon!

    This town is a gem in Germany. It is very well preserved and is surrounded by an ancient defensive wall. History exudes everywhere and is interspersed with a lively and vibrant town center. Do not miss it!

    Very clean and beautifully presented, the walks around the old town, walls and the vineyards showed the full beauty of a very special place. All of the quaint shops that we visited looked welcoming and again all staff were very pleasant. We have already been recommending friends and family to visit and we would love to return at Christmas when we believe that the experience would be even more amazing.

    Authentic 15th century bldg, located just steps off the main plaza with lovely rooms. Large selection of breakfast items, onsite restaurant w/excellent food and wine/beer (we tasted all three) and exceptional staff that goes the extra mile to make one feel comfortable and welcomed! Only drawback is that parking is very limited especially on the weekends. If you find a spot out front of the hotel, stay there for the duration of your time as the chance of finding another parking space is low.

    Fantastic place to stay!!!

    Fantastic place to stay!!! The rooms were beautiful clean and fully equipped. We had 2 rooms with separate bathrooms living room dining room and kitchen. The location is the key too. So easy to walk around to any destination in the city. Staff were very friendly. They made good fresh breakfast and coffee. I’m giving 5/5 to them. I wish we could stay longer. Highly recommend!!!
