Romantik Hotel Markusturm

I couldn’t improve one thing at this hotel if I tried. The room and bathroom were perfect (We had a tub for me a fan for sleeping/white noise for him). Breakfast and restaurant was divine. Location superb. Helpfulness of staff amazing. This was literally the most romantic hotel in Rothenburg. Each time we approached to enter the building we would hear passers-by being remorseful that they were not staying at this location. We got really lucky. This was without a doubt one of the highlights of all my European travels.

We spent 3 nights in room 106 on the first floor, a very large room by European standards. It featured a canopy bed with two singles pushed together, two couches, plenty of luggage storage space, a stand alone tub, walk in shower, coffee maker, and two tower fans at the ready for hot weather. There were storks in their nest at the top of the Markusturm. Breakfast was superb and varied: yogurt & muesli, brezel & rolls, smoked salmon, coffee, tea, orange juice, meats (salami, pork, speck, liverwurst), cherry tomatoes, brie with herbs, Swiss cheese, clementine, butter, cream cheese, jams, plus an egg any way you like it, all served by friendly hosts in a delightful dining room. The staff throughout the hotel are warm and welcoming. The hotel is mere steps from everything, especially the Marktplatz, and the Plönlein is an easy walk. Parking is convenient and the parkplatz is near the Gerlachschmiede. The hotel provides brollies on rainy days - hope you don't have any reason to use them. We walked the town walls, visited St.-Jakobs-Kirche, took in the Christmas Museum, the Medieval Crime Museum, and participated in the Night Watchman's Tour - recommended! One day we drove out to the Franconian Open Air Museum at Bad Windsheim. A day trip to this town is insufficient - do yourself a favour and stay for at least a couple of nights, and do so at the Romantik Hotel Markusturm. You won't regret it. Pro tip: If you're going to get a schneeball, get the marzipan & amaretto one.

Super centrally located in the heart of Rothenburg. If you like historical buildings, you will fall in love at first sight. Extremely warm welcome and cheerful atmosphere throughout the entire stay. Our room was not large, but clean and unique - here the word "romance" comes to life. Kitchen and breakfast homemade and fresh. After the parachute jump, we were simply invited to champagne. This is customer proximity.
