We have visited Rothenberg ob der Tauber altstadt (old city) 3 times over the past 20 years. After the 1st stay, we have not even searched for a hotel. Admittedly, the biggest asset, the host, has died and the hotel is now run by relatives. There are mementos of this wonderful man in the lobby, including his favorite vest laid over a railing. The host would introduce guests to each other at breakfast and start conversations.

Breakfast is no longer served at Hotel Spitzweg. Guests go to the sister hotel a block away. While the food and service is still wonderful, I miss the charm of meeting new people. And to be honest, Hotel Spitzweg is vertical with no lift. As we have aged, climbing the stairs to our room after a day of exploration has become harder.

The decor was beautiful and clean. The location was pretty good, just a short walk to get to the center of town. There is off-street parking which was so awesome!

No staff! I was there for an entire day and did not see a single staff person. If I had questions, I would have to use the booking.com app or call a cell phone number. It all worked out for me but I would have loved to meet those running the place. Also, no breakfast at the facility. We had to walk 2 or 3 blocks away to another hotel for the included breakfast service.

Check-in was smooth, just make sure you have your reservation number handy, because you’ll need it for the automatic key dispenser. Breakfast was very good, but it’s at a different hotel, about a 5 minute walk away. The hotel and room were very clean and well kept, and the location is excellent, maybe 10 minutes from the Marktplatz.

Two flights of steep, small stairs were a challenge navigating with luggage.

Spitzweg is a beautiful old hotel with comfortable beds etc. The hotel is ideally located within the walls and very close to the central marketplace.

There is no longer parking or breakfasts at the Hotel Spitzweg. We ate a very good breakfast and paid for parking at Hotel Zum Breitle. Mike the owner and his family and staff are very friendly and accommodating at Zum Breitle. The internet was extremely weak at Spitzweg - had to go downstairs to get connected.

The bed was comfortable but the pillows were the worst pillows of 40 years of hotels and rentals. Absolutely horrible! Flat flat flat. Nothing but air. I finally took a pair of my husband's jeans, rolled them up and used them for a pillow. We have stayed in many Deutsch hotels with good pillows not here! The bathroom was fine - we had room 10. Breakfast was fine - not over the top but fine. We would stay again and bring our own pillows!

Pillows! HORRIBLE!

The room was very comfortable and close to the Markplatz and all the wonderful areas to see in town.

Self registration was a little confusing and this was partly my fault - I had somehow deleted my email with the confirmation information,b ut did finally find a paper copy. It was late at night and raining, so a bit confusing.

Everything was just great! Excellent location, almost in the center of the old city, clean rooms, comfortable beds, sufficient amount of toiletries. The staff is very polite, attentive, and tried to help with any questions. The breakfast at the neighboring hotel is very good, tasty and of high quality. I recommend this hotel to everyone, you will be very, very satisfied! Get a lot of positive impressions, which is very important in our time!!!

We have stayed many times. This is the first stay as self service. The standards of the hotel have been maintained. Walking a short bit for breakfast was not a problem. The staff at Hotel Breiterle were delightful!!! Our travel group looked forward to chatting with staff every morning.

Nothing

Location & breakfast were very good. The hotel decor was stellar. An old building with open beams, tapestries & period furnishings.

Our room was on the 3rd floor & there is no elevator and no one at the desk to assist with luggage,. Problematic for me because I am mobility impaired.

Location was great, the automated check-in worked fine and breakfast was great. Especially the host of the breakfast was awesome.

The bed and pillow were a bit uncomfortable. There is a vent to cool down, but didn't really do the trick becausr it was warm outside.
