Rathausglöckel

Baden-Baden


Right in the thick of things, this super-friendly family-run hotel occupies a 16th-century townhouse. The attractively renovated rooms (some with rooftop views) are dressed in muted tones with pine furniture – those on the 3rd floor command the best views over Baden-Baden's rooftops. Breakfast is a generous spread of fresh bread, fruit and pastries, homemade jam and bacon and eggs.
