Friendly helpful staff, limited parking and staff parks for you but additional charge. Nice breakfast buffet with decent choices, very clean appeared either well kept or newly renovated.

10/10 Exceptional

Hotel Sonne was outstanding. In the middle of town, close to everything. The staff was extremely kind and helpful. There is no elevator, so be prepared for a few stairs. You can get a dronk from their bar and take it upstairs to a very quiet and private terrace. Highly recommended.

Very nice hotel right next to the city center. We parked outside the town and walked in about 10 minutes to the hotel. Friendly staff, clean and comfy rooms with a welcome treat and excellent breakfast.

Great location and very friendly and helpful owners. One block from the main square. Excellent breakfast buffet. No elevator so large suitcases are not recommended.
Gustavo, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Incredible service and such a lovely, convenient property. My family and I had a memorable experience - possibly the best of our time in Germany. We loved chatting with Isabella and the whole family, and the food was delicious at both breakfast and dinner. Will recommend to any and all people we know going to Rothenburg.
Brooke, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Our family had a fantastic stay at Hotel Sonne! This charming, quaint hotel is in the perfect location, within easy walking distance to all the nearby historical sites. The warm and welcoming staff went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. The hotel has a small parking lot which made it easy to offload luggages. We’d highly recommend Hotel Sonne for anyone looking to enjoy a cozy time in Rothenburg!
Chelsea, 1-night trip

The staff was so helpful and kind and they spoke English which was really helpful for us. The location is excellent. There is a pedestrian only road at the front of the hotel however you can drive to the back entrance. We would stay there again.

Central location A bit tricky finding the property by car- find a lot and walk to it first ones right around the corner. At a the Italian Restaurant up the street, fantastic- a must needed change from 2 wks German food

A GREAT hotel!

One of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at in Europe. The most friendly and efficient staff you can imagine. The room was GREAT—modern, but with a wonderful old-world charm. And the breakfast was plentiful and delicious!…and FREE! Look no further: this is the place to stay in Rothenburg ob der Tauber!

Parking was 20 € a day and 1st floor is Us equivalent to 2nd floor. Lots of stairs but employee was able to carry our luggage up for us. Free breakfast was wonderful and abundant. Highly recommend

Great stay in Hotel Sonne

Just back from an enjoyable stay at the hotel for a few days. Check in was easy and the room was spot on. Car park is located less than two minutes walk from the hotel, it's definitely worth contacting the hotel and reserving a parking place. Hotel restaurant was very good, ate there a few times. It always seemed to be fairly busy, lot of people stopping to eat or have a drink. Overall really enjoyed my stay here and would recommend the hotel and it's staff
Michael, 3-night trip

Cozy hotel in a beautiful town

Very nice small family hotel in the center of the historical town. Exceptionally friendly staff. One of the best breakfasts we have ever had in any hotel. Lovely clean room and bathroom. Nice view to the medieval center. The hotel and their separate garage was a little difficult to find with a car as traffic on the narrow alleys was strictly limited, but we got good instructions at the reception. The garage is only about 100 meters from the hotel.

I like the hotel restaurant. the food is very good. I started with a curry seafood soup. The yellow curry, green and red pepper accent the color. The curry favor is mild enough to bring out the taste.
