Top Franconian Way of St. James Hotel Reviews

Hotel Rothenburger Hof

8/10 Good

"Overall, our stay was excellent. The location was fantastic for getting to the old part of town. We are very friendly and helpful staff. The breakfast was exceptional, and then an amazing array of items to choose from. I would say the only downside to our stay was that our room was on the very busy road and traffic was very loud throughout the night. Earplugs were a must."

Hotel Sonne

10/10 Excellent

"This is a beautiful family owned hotel about a block off the town market square. Owner, Lars, and his daughter, Isabelle, are gracious and helpful hosts. We were warmly welcomed and Lars assisted my husband to the parking garage. Isabelle was on hand 1st thing in the morning to greet us and escort us to our table. She speaks English, German, French and Spanish(although she says not as well) . The breakfast buffet was beautiful. The hotel is exceptionally cleaned and well-cared for - pride of ownership is evident! Really no need to look further - stay here!"
