The Stairs! I was on the 3rd floor, so 4 sections of stairs to carry 2 pieces of luggage. But not so bad, as you only need to go up with luggage once! This is not a deal breaker for me, just inconvinient.

This place is great, super close to Old Town, you can basically walk everywhere from there. Eight minutes from Train Station too. The furthest place i had to walk to was the Topler Castle, 30 minutes away, which is still pretty close, and a lovely walk. The room was fine, modern, clean. There is a common kitchen on the ground level with a large dining table, first class. Staff is very nice and polite. When I visit again, I hope to stay here. Highly recommend it.

We liked everything about our visit (except that we arrived on a Sunday, and many places were closed).

We loved the location, and after a long drive, being able to access the honor bar was a nice way to relax. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We would love to come back for another visit.

The property is beautiful and the location is perfect!

All is perfect.

Beautiful little hotel with all the modern comforts, the interior is fully refurbished with modern touches. There is a kitchen with tea, coffee and snacks. Very good parking facility at a fee and location is perfect just outside the city walls

Easy to reach by car. Very clean. Excellent common kitchen that all hotels should have, with attention to detail. Comfortable room. I would stay here again!

Nothing of any significance. There is no lift which didn't hinder us but may be an issue for some.

This property is next to and clearly a modern addition to the main hotel. As such the decor is sharp, contemporary, well appointed and clean. Bed was large and comfortable. Wifi and A/C worked well. At ground level is a guest area which allows cooking, coffee making and has a basic snacks on an honesty box basis. The hotel is 2 minutes from Rothenburg city wall and main gate. The staff were very friendly, helpful and always smiled

Bathroom not suitable for family, more for couple.

Good air conditioning & comfy bed.

As seems common in some countries - no tea or coffee making facilities in room, but there was a nicely done communal area for making such drinks. Leaf tea and teapots available but no tea bags.

Buffet breakfast with choice of eggs. Buffet had a wide range to choose from. Room very comfortable and air conditioning promotes a comfortable nights sleep. Staff very friendly and efficient. Parking available but at extra cost to room.

I think, check-in at the Alter Ego would be better

Nothing, it was great!

Beautiful, modern hotel with excellent service. Our train from Berlin was delayed, thereby making us late to our rental car booking in Bamberg after-hours. We were stranded there until we figured out alternative travel to Rothenburg. We ended up arriving very late to the hotel and the staff were very accommodating. Beautiful, modern furnishings with very comfortable beds. We had 2 rooms next to each other. Our teenage kids weren't crazy about the open, see-through shower door in their room, but ours was enclosed. Location is excellent right outside the town gate.

Nothing really

The room was very nicely setup. Although the outside of the building is "old" looking, the inside is very modern and functional. The breakfast was very good and primarily the staff was exceptional.

The doors bang loudly when other guests arrive back

Lovely quirky building, seating outside, shared well equipped kitchen with tea/coffee and fruit included. Trust bar. Funky room decor. Excellent breakfast!

The air conditioning in our room wasn’t very effective, it never reached a comfortable temperature and infact didn't feel like it was blowing cold air, which was disappointing given how good everything else was. Although the windows are well soundproofed, we had to leave them open due to the heat, and traffic noise disturbed our sleep. Also, the bathroom door is made of glass and doesn’t offer much privacy, so you’ll need to be very comfortable with whoever you’re staying with.

The communal facilities were excellent, from the quality coffee machine (Moccamaster) to the trust bar stocked with local wine and snacks at great prices. Every detail felt stylish, thoughtful, and premium. The rooms were trendy, with exposed brickwork and a very comfortable bed. The TV setup worked perfectly (we used our Netflix easily). The hotel’s location is ideal, with safe, convenient paid parking right out front and easy access to the town. The staff were also really friendly and kindly reduced the dog fee for our small dog because of his size, which was a lovely touch.

Had the air conditioning set at 18 degrees but never felt that cool.

Very clean and modern design. Massive shower was nice. Only steps away from the city wall and the historic part of town. Also enjoyed the complimentary cafe amenities and made myself an espresso in the morning. Would stay here again no question. Staff was pleasant and easy to converse with in English.

Nothing.

We did not realize this was a Michelin Star Hotel AND Restaurant! We loved our room at the Alter Ego. There was a common kitchen area with a fun farm table and supplies to make snacks or even a meal if you wanted! We entertained some family for a birthday celebration with appetizers and champagne. The owner [Christian Mittermeiers] and main chef for the restaurant made sure the staff had a bucket with ice for the champagne! Christian also gave us a recommendation for lunch at another Michelin Star restaurant near Fussen which was fantastic. I highly recommend this hotel and order the breakfast as it was spectacular. The location is just outside the walled City perfect to take in all the beauty Rothenburg has to offer. Maria at check in was equally wonderful.

There are a lot of stairs but we managed 😊

Great location just outside the old city walls. The room was clean and modern. Breakfast was very nice with a good variety of food. Parking was ample beside the hotel.

Excellent staff and it’s a boutique style hotel which we loved. The breakfast was excellent and had a home prepared vibe! Beautiful property.

The shower is glass and open to the bedroom. It was fine for us but you need to be very comfortable with who you are traveling with.

Great location, parking, and super modern and clean.

There's NOTHING to dislike

First and above all, there is the reception team (Lady Andrea, Lady Itzel, Mr. Denis, Lady Vera, and Lady Anna). Besides the beautiful facility (building and room-wise) and amazing location, this extraordinary professional team was so attentive, welcoming, cheerful with the best positive energy. From the communication before our arrival, throughout our stay and the unfortunately goodbye, the team was there for us. The location of the hotel is 7min beautiful walk from the Christmas Matket (right in the center) with an attached car park. The hotel is very modern and peaceful attached to the first and main Mittermeiers hotel. The hotel Restaurant serves outstanding dinner with an incredible group of individuals that facilitate the Resturant. Its the first time i saw that every dish comes with a brief acknowledgment of a staff member. The Restaurant

Our group of 4 cannot think of anything we didn't like.

An excellent hotel in a great location. Rooms were comfortable with everything you needed for a good stay and the bed and pillows were fantastic. The honour kitchen was great, well stocked and very comfortable. Staff were very friendly and helpful and the owner even offered to take a group photo at the end of our stay. Location was close to the old town without being in the hustle and bustle of the crowd which made it much easier accessing by car and free on-site parking was very much appreciated. We cannot rate this hotel highly enough, it was excellent!.
