Top Rothenburg ob der Tauber Hotel Reviews

Hotel Sonne

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is right in the heart of the old town, so it’s easy to walk everywhere. If you book in advance, you can also park in their indoor garage for just €20 per night, which is a big plus! What really surprised me was the breakfast. Everything was prepared with so much care! The bread was warm and delicious, and there was a great variety of ham and cheese. They even had pudding, salads, and other little treats served in cute individual glass jars. Everything was so good! The staff were also incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made our stay even more special. We had such a lovely time here, and it’s definitely a place I’d come back to if I visit again. Highly recommend!"
