The property is grand and unique: an old church (or monastery). The rooms feel almost like a dormitory, but are spacious and comfortable. Each room has a bathroom, as if someone put dropped a pre-fab bathroom in a dorm room. Rooms feel newly remodeled and very clean.
With the church atmosphere comes a sense of calm. We took morning walks through the wooded area and sat along the river, just listening to the water and leaves. We explored the top floor which had a chapel and some explanations for the history of the hotel. The property is massive and would make for a great retreat or conference center. There is a kids' playroom.
At the back of the property are a set of stairs (~3 flights) which lead up to the southern gate of Rothenburg. It's a 5-10 minute walk to the City Center, depending on how distracted you get along the way. Very convenient, although notably not within the city walls itself.
Breakfast was simple, but good.
For the price, we found this to be an extremely worthwhile stay.

This guest house is an 800-year-old building in the heart of Rothenburg ob der Tauber. Gästehaus am weißen Turm offers country-style rooms with classic wooden furniture.
The location is great and the room is quite comfy.
The half-timbered buildings, cobbled streets and brightly painted façades of medieval Rothenburg ob der Tauber wouldn’t be out of place in a fairytale. Several fantastical films have been set in this gem on the scenic Romantic Road, passing from Würzburg to Füssen via Bavaria’s most enchanting towns.
Uniquely designed gates allow access to the historic centre through walls partly covered with tiled roofs. Walking along the walls offers a different perspective of the town’s colourful flowers, step gables and towers. The town hall has the tallest tower, whose far-reaching views include the large Marktplatz, home of the Christmas market. The Christmas Museum is a year-round winter wonderland, as is the shop of Käthe Wohlfahrt, the internationally renowned German Christmas decoration producer.
On a different note, the Crime Museum houses medieval torture instruments including a ducking stool. Holy Blood and Last Supper altarpieces form the focal point of towering St James’ Church, a stop on the Santiago de Compostela pilgrimage route.
In the River Tauber valley outside the centre are lush gardens, one containing Toppler Castle, a bizarre structure resembling a house on a tower. Also in the valley is a double-arched stone bridge.
The Rothenburg ob der Tauber accommodation on Booking.com includes traditional guest houses and family hotels with a spa and parking.

The town itself is really a great example of a medieval walled town. Getting to walk the walls, look inside the old churches, and eat/stay in local establishments adds to the experience. The topper for us was the added bonus of a festival occurring during our visit!

Rothenburg ob der Tauber has met my expectations of cute, romantic well preserved medieval town , loved the historic museum of the torture , learned lot of things there , definitely loved that we stayed for couple nights unlike most of tourists come only for a day.
We loved walking around the fortress where we took great photos and explored some of the insides too.
Walking around is easy coz everything is very near.
I can highly recommend Zur Holle Restaurant, lovely staff and food.
Highly recommend this town to every travellers and especially those who love history.
I would definitely come back again.

Beautiful town and we were very happy we included it on our tour. Walking the wall was a great experience but you really don't have to walk the whole thing. We were there in the shoulder season, March, and pretty much nothing opened, shops & museums, until 2pm when the tour busses arrived. We specifically stayed overnight because of advice to be there without "hordes" of tourists and to see the town lit up. Problem was that there isn't any exterior lighting and we had the town pretty much to ourselves all morning. When the tour busses leave it turns into a ghost town. Shops close, which are all cheap tourist shops and not interesting anyway. Also, we had an extremely difficult time finding a place for dinner. There aren't many restaurants and because of that reservations are required. Happy we saw the town but spending six hours would have been enough.

Old town is the place to be.
Old town is the place to be. Beautiful architecture, history and it really feels like you are in Pinocchio’s fairytale village. Worth visiting and you don’t need more than 2-3 nights to fully explore it. And you can walk everywhere.

We stayed three nights and spent 2-1/2 days in the old town. We’ve been here many times but there’s plenty to see and do. We recommend the Rothenberger Handworker’s house tour, an ancient house unchanged since the 1700s, St Jakob’s church, the criminal museum, the night watchman’s tour, and walking the town’s perimeter walls and towers. These help illustrate medieval life and how people lived back then, and how good we have it today!

This is a stunning walled medieval town!
This is a stunning walled medieval town! You can walk around most of the wall - stork nests can be seen if you look carefully! Every street is beautiful with gift shops and cafes. The castle gardens are great to relax in and at the bottom you are rewarded with an amazing view down to the river Tauber.

Really comfortable room (bed, space, bathroom) and superb experience overall. Staff was attentive, helpful and sympathetic. Location can barely be any better as this is in the heart of altstadt.
The hotel restaurant is incredible! I enjoyed the most delicious schäufelle in Germany there. I also definitely recommend the local sparkling wine. The apfel strudel was a work of art. Nice and polite staff there as well.
The breakfast was good. Not hugely varietied but with all the basics for all tastes, with tasty local products as well.
Ms Liebler was super nice and considerate. We messaged and she explained everything to the last detail. When we arrived she explained things got changed up in the last minute so she had to put us in a bigger apartment (we rented studio) but told us not to worry about extra charge! Apartment was nicely decorated, equipped with everything you need and perfectly clean. Boyfriend and I are already planning to come back to Rothenburg ob der Tauber and to Gästehaus Liebler!
Clean room. Modern ensuite. Staircase to rooms. Parking out the front is limited but once restaurant guests leave it frees up room for hotel guests. The restaurant downstairs is one of the best. The chef is simply amazing and it’s worth staying here just for his homemade apple strudel !!!! All the desserts are impressive (the mains are great too) and very well
priced. Staff were friendly. Short drive to Rothenburg ob der Tauber. Would stay again.
The hotel is placed right in the middle of the main spots of the city, and directly on the most Instagramabeable photo of Rothenburg ob der Tauber. It's a very nice place, I had a room. on the back side of the building, connected directly to the beer garden. Nice and pretty basic old fashioned room with the vibe of the ancient city. Don't expect complimentary toiletries in the bathroom. In overall the room is enough and comfy for one person.
Hotel and location was amazing. We opted for a change of room at last minute because we could not carry luggage up flights of stairs. We were given rooms on first floor with no view. The restaurant was wonderful for breakfast. Staff were over the top friendly and handled all our needs. We will be back. And next time we will allow the Hotel to carry our bags up the stairs and be in a nicer room. Thank you......
Stayed at the hotel with the family for 1 night during our road trip. The location was great since it's located in town's center (old town), private parking at the facility. The room was cozy and clean with comfy beds except the (puffy) pillows - but that's a matter of habit. The staff was very kind and the breakfast was delicious with vast options. Would stay again when in Rothenburg ob der Tauber.
Wonderful hotel in the medieval centre of Rothenburg ob der Tauber. The room was super clean with comfy beds and a big shower. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The breakfast was super delicious with a wide variety of different cold and hot options. The hotel restaurant and wine cellar had a lot of delicious local dishes, wines, and beers.
Of the six places we stayed on our trip to Germany, France, and Switzerland Christmas markets, this was our favorite. Right in the middle of everything, very cozy, and a great host. The breakfast was a pleasant surprise. The bummer was that the Christmas markets were closed, but Rothenburg ob der Tauber was everything we hoped for.
When we went to check in, we were told there was a “problem” and were sent to another lesser quality hotel which was about a 1/4 mile from where we booked. No parking on site - had to drag our bags to the relocated room. The “new” location was not nearly as nice as the original was listed. This was an expensive disappointment.
One of the best hotels in Europe we have stayed in. There were so many cute areas to sit and relax in the hotel after spending the day walking around. The staff was superb! From hotel check in to the breakfast staff. They went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed.
Location is great, near the city center surrounded by lovely tiny shops and a good burger restaurant. The room was spacious and the bed was really comfortable. The host was friendly and provided us insightful information and pointers for spending our time in Rothenburg ob der Tauber.
One of the best hotel rooms I stayed in. We stayed in a family suite, with 3 bedrooms, a living room and a terrace on to of the city was. Friendly staff, lots of historical details with all modern conveniences and lots of ambiance.
Good hotel at one of the entrances of Rothenburg ob der Tauber, perfect for arriving with your car.
The staff was correct and helpful.
The breakfast was outstanding, with plenty of options and good quality.
Brilliant hotel on a scenic street in Rothenburg. As with many places in town, there's a historic atmosphere but with added modern comfort. The staff were lovely and helped with parking our car and so on
It is a beautiful Bavarian hotel. We felt totally at home and transmitted back in time. Our meal at the restaurant was the best we had in our two weeks in Europe.
