Beautiful rooms and weathered wood and stone corridors and dining room that made you feel like you were in a medieval fairytale. Breakfast in the dining room was a lovely, relaxed atmosphere and we so enjoyed the hotelier's hospitality. Staying here made our trip - and we considered staying another night! 10/10 would recommend.

We absolutely loved our stay at Historik Hotel Gotisches Haus! The building is stunning — full of old-world charm with beautiful wood beams and historic details, but everything still felt really comfortable and modern. Our room was super cozy and clean, and the bathroom was surprisingly luxurious. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, and the location couldn’t have been better — right in the heart of Rothenburg, just steps from all the sights. Breakfast was fresh and delicious too, served in such a cozy atmosphere. If you want a memorable and authentic stay in Rothenburg ob der Tauber, I highly recommend this hotel.

This historic hotel is truly one of a kind! It’s the oldest in the area and has been beautifully renovated. The staff are super friendly and always ready to help. We stayed in the charming and spacious attic suite, and we absolutely loved it! We loved this hotel so much that we even bought a miniature clay building of it as a souvenir. We highly recommend this hotel, and when we get the chance to visit the area again, we will definitely stay here once more!

This hotel was amazing! So beautiful and charming. It was the perfect place to stay in an already adorably charming town. The room was beautiful and comfortable, the bathroom was huge and lovely, and the dining area was off-the-charts lovely. The breakfast (with candlelight and so much food) was terrific, and the staff were friendly and helpful. My only complaint was that our ceiling fan kept mysteriously shutting off in the middle of the night. If we had been staying another night, I would have asked about it. But that could not dampen our enthusiasm for this incredible hotel.
