Great choice close to the train station and city

Great hotel conveniently located with an excellent breakfast! For dinner we went to the restaurant next door and it was delicious. It’s part of the hotel but you access from the outside. Comfortable rooms with a great bathtub and shower. Slept so well and would definitely return!

Great Location

The hotel is just outside one of the main gates, so very quick/easy to walk into the Altstadt. My room was in the newer part, so it was modern with plenty of space. Plenty of choices at breakfast.

Situated just outside the entrance to the old town, the hotel is very conveniently located. The rooms are clean, and overall the location is very quiet. The breakfast buffet was yruly astounding and filled with many delicious options from cold cuts, cheeses, eggs, bacon, etc. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.

We visited here on a 2 week winter trip to Germany. Front desk staff was friendly and enthusiastic. They greeted us warmly and made us feel welcome. Breakfast was especially spectacular! This hotel was the unanimous favorite of our family. On top of that, Rothenburg ob der Tauber was super cool. We loved it here and wanted to come back and stay longer.

We spent 2 nights at Hotel Rappen recently and it was walkable from the train station, which was very helpful.The breakfast was very good and we enjoyed it. The hotel itself was adequate, but not more. It lacked warmth and charm and felt like a high end hostel. The dining room for breakfast looked nothing like the restaurant pictured in the ad. It was impossible to get a cup of tea or coffee in the evening without walking to a gas station; there was no in-room set up and the hotel didn’t offer any, even for purchase.
