Description

Hotel Reichs-Kuchenmeister is a 4-star property built in 1947 and renovated in 1992, located in Rothenburg ob der Tauber. The hotel offers a wide variety of room types, from Economy rooms to spacious Suites and Apartments. Guests will find a mix of historical ambiance combined with modern amenities such as air conditioning (available for a daily fee), free WiFi, and a spa and wellness center including a sauna and massage services. The hotel features an on-site restaurant and bar, a garden and terrace, and business facilities including meeting rooms. Parking is available for a fee, with shuttle service between the lot and hotel. Despite its central location, some rooms are in a nearby building about 50 feet away. The hotel welcomes families and provides facilities for disabled guests, but pets are not allowed. The overall guest rating is high at 9/10 with particular praise for cleanliness, service, and location.

Location

Situated at Kirchplatz 8, the hotel is right in the heart of Rothenburg ob der Tauber, close to the historic Rathaus (town hall) and St. Jakob’s Church, which guests can see from the outdoor patio. The city’s main square and several restaurants are within a few minutes’ walk, including Café Hotel Eisenhut just 137 meters away. The nearest airport is Stuttgart Echterdingen (STR), approximately 104 kilometers from the hotel. The hotel is inside the walled old town, which can make driving and parking challenging; however, a parking garage is available with shuttle service to the hotel entrance. This central location places you within easy reach of Rothenburg’s top sights and dining options.

Tips

Book parking in advance and consider using the shuttle service to avoid navigating narrow old town streets.
If traveling in summer, request air conditioning early or verify your room has it, as some rooms in the separate building do not.
For a quiet stay, note that rooms in the separate building may be warmer and noisier due to open windows and street activity.

Wonderful location. Excellent breakfast. If you want A/C there is an extra fee. There is construction right next to the hotel. Hard to get to since many of the streets are one way.

02.06.2026 Guest

We had a nice room with a large bathroom. The bathtub was super scary slippery. The nighttime revelers were annoying. It is the most adorable town!!

19.04.2026 Guest

Perfectly located near the Rathaus, with an outdoor patio facing St. Jakob’s Church. Historic feel with modern appointments. The staff/service was professional and friendly.

Hotel Reichskuchenmeister is a very charming hotel in the romantic center of Rothenburg. We loved the location, the kitchen, and the friendly staff. It was great that they offered a breakfast box on the day of our early departure. We only have one criticism. Because we wanted to leave around 6:30 AM, it turned out that the hotel's parking and charging facilities were no longer available. So we left that location and moved to a nearby public charging station. The fact that Germany isn't quite ready for the "energiewende" (energy transition) was evident from the fact that the charging station (with a regular 220-volt plug) indicated it would take at least 47 hours to charge the battery of my "fat German" to 80% (!).

The hotel offers an interesting mix of middle ages (the rustic wine bar), 80s (the breakfast room and how breakfast is presented) and the modern und lovely sauna. The food in the restaurant is good, but a bit pricey - due to the location of the hotel in the center of the tourist area. The rooms are refurbished. What struck us as odd was the 5-EUR-daily charge for air-conditioning (the rooms especially under the roof might be quite hot in summer), the dreary reading room and the more 80s-style breakfast, which, compared to other hotels in tourist areas is no longer state of the art in our eyes. All in all a conveniently located hotel with very friendly drivers to and from the hotel's parking lot and a very modern and cozy sauna/steam room area.

- :
Security - no peephole on the door to see through who’s there when the bell rings, simple key to open the door with no extra lock for extra safety. This is normally a standard. Rooms are located in a separate building with an automatic door so anyone can simply enter the building.

No slippers even upon request
No complimentary water nor water jar provided since tab water in Germany is safe to drink

Only provided 1 cotton kit for 2 people and no refilling after it has been used

Crowded and rather small wellness area in a separate building/despite booking in advance (but not their fault)

We had cafe menu , server was sooo kind and service was also good. Chocolate cake was very rich and if you order tea or coffee one sugar cookies is free. It is great place

12.10.2025 Steven

Great overall experience. The deluxe rooms are spacious and beautiful. The restaurant is excellent. Only negative is that the Weinstube was used as overflow for the restaurant and therefore we were denied entry when we just wanted to enjoy a bottle of wine. I have never been told that we have to eat a meal to enjoy a bottle of wine in a Weinstube.

I had a lovely 2 night stay! The room was comfortable and i love the windows that open! The gentleman that assisted with car parking and my bags was great! Breakfast was tasty with a decent selection. Parking add 18€, if you want the ac turned on it’s 5€ per day. Also to note the hotel is right in the heart of the walled town so there is some noise outside, the windows block out a lot but if you’re extra sensitive keep note.

23.09.2025 Martha

Fantastic hotel! So pretty and quaint in a lovely town, very near the main square. I wish we could have stayed longer than one night. Our bed was comfortable, and the room and bathroom were plenty spacious. Dinner and breakfast at the hotel were delicious, with large portions. The staff was friendly and spoke perfect English. I highly recommend staying here.
