“Home away from home”

Gasthof Goldener Greifen

Jul 29, 2007
3/3 found this review helpful

We picked this hotel based on the reviews and the web site and were not at all dissapointed. We asked for a large double and it was huge, we had the whole front of the property on the third floor. That gave us 3 windows, and as it was rather warm during our visit, that was appreciated (interestingly there were no screens in the windows, but there were few bugs). The room could probably have slept two more people, in addition to the king bed, there was a daybed and a large couch as well as several chairs and a table.

The family that runs the hotel were very friendly and helpful and it felt like home with childrena nd grandchildren and toys about.

Rothenburg was an absolutely fabulous place. We were there for two days but could have styed much longer. The night watchman is quite a show. Interestingly, one would think that this place would be too much of a tourist trap to be enjoyable, however my husband and I kept commenting on how it did not feel like a tourist trap at all. We walked the ramparts several times and found places that there were no people (tourists or locals). There were many back streets that were very quiet, and we really enjoyed that this is a real city, people actually live here as well as work here. I highly recommend a visit to everyone, old and young!

“Outstanding!”

I have to thank all of you who shared your reviews of this place: It was wonderful! Charming, old hotel, very well maintained, right in the center of things. We felt like we had stepped back in time.

We stayed at many hotels throughout Germany. Most were welcoming, in a polite way. But the staff at Goldener Greifen were universally warm and welcoming; they couldn't do enough for us. And the hotel restaurant was excellent for reasonable, top-notch, homey German cooking. Best brats I had the whole trip.

I highly recommend Goldener Greifen...and be sure to take the Night Watchman's tour of Rothernberg. Informative, and hilarious.

“Beautiful Guesthouse”

Gasthof Goldener Greifen

Jul 17, 2007
2/2 found this review helpful

This was a wonderful place to stay. They gave us a hugh suite, with a separate sitting/tv room and big bedroom and a beautifully renovated bathroom. The staff was wonderful, the room was very clean and the breakfast was good. It is in the very heart of old Rothenburg. Everyone spoke English too! I would recommend this one to anyone.

“Great little Hotel”

Gasthof Goldener Greifen

5 of 5 stars

1/1 found this review helpful

I booked the hotel based on TripAdvisor comments and I was not disappointed. Truly this hotel is a little gem. The people were terrific; the hotel has a great location, the room was clean and roomy (we had a family of 4) and the food was good. I would absolutely stay here again. There is parking out back. Make sure you have a map with detail of the town so you can find the hotel when you arrive.
