Review: Gotisches Haus in Rothenburg

While we were in Rothenburg, we stayed at the Gotisches Haus (Gothic House) on Herrngasse for one night.  We loved every part of our experience here and would highly recommend it to anyone who wanted to stay within the walls in Rothenburg.

The location on the Herrngasse was ideal because it is right in the middle of the city.  We were just half a block from Market Square.

View onto the street from the Third Floor.

We loved the decor of the hotel. The hotel is actually in a building that has been there since the middle ages! We felt like we were staying in a castle.

My husband and I stayed in room 30, which also included a small sitting room and a balcony. The ceiling does slope down because of the eaves, but we thought it just added to the great atmosphere of the hotel.

View from our private balcony.

Even though the building itself is old, they have all the modern amenities, including a luxurious, modern bathroom.

My sister and her husband stayed in room 20, which is shaped more like a conventional hotel room.  They really liked their room too.  If you feel claustrophobic from low ceilings, I would recommend a room on the first or second floors.  You can see pictures and rates of each room on the hotel’s website here. Rooms range from 86 euros to 168 euros a night.

Breakfast was included with the rooms.  The hotel serves intercontinental breakfast.  You order your choice of coffee drinks and hot cooked items such as omelletes.  There is also a cold buffet with bread, croissants, cold cuts, hard boiled eggs, juice etc…  We thought breakfast was pretty good.
