Reviews of Hotel Rathausglöckel

We had a lovely meal here on the terrace on. our evening in Baden-Baden. Delicious food and great service

A seriously old fashioned hotel located right by the the main spa yet very quiet.Charming staff and a good breakfast including freshly cooked eggs(fried for me).I ate dinner in their restaurant which was a sombre experience.Dreadful "coq au vin" but when I said I had not enjoyed it there were sincere apologies and the offer of a free dessert which was delicious.Perhaps better to eat there when /if it is busy.

Great authentic restaurant with traditional decor, helpful staff and delicious food! Strawberry soup was unusual and tasty and the salmon with vegetables was very good!

We had a lovely stay in this hotel. We reserved the family suite, which was very, very roomy - one big bed in one area and two separate twins in a separate area - my teens appreciated this extra space after being cramped (and having to share a pull out double bed) so often on our trip. Mattresses were comfortable. The breakfast was a classic German buffet which had lots of fresh food to offer. The staff was lovely. The one point to be considered is that the family suite was on the top floor - requiring navigating two flights of narrow stairs with our suitcases and backpacks. Not a deal breaker at all, but to be considered if you have lousy knees (as I do). Also, there was one window A/C unit, which likely would not be enough to cool the entire space during high heat of summer - but it was fine for us with slightly cooler weather. Overall highly recommend!

Wow! What a great meal. My wife said it was one of the best meals she’s ever had. It was certainly one of the best in recent times for me. Great service and a well designed menu with something for everyone. The seasoning was spot on and the choice of wine excellent to match the food. It was reasonably priced too! What’s not to like

What a wonder charming authentic hotel. Parking was near by they were very accommodating we booked extra room by mistake and they helped us out. Breakfast buffet was delightful. Close to main streets for shopping restaurants, cafes, spa's. Would definitely come back again. Too short a visit

The restaurant in the hotel is very good and is a local institution. The hotel room was really clean and very well appointed - very nice hotel room! The room was very spacious and the shower / hot water etc was superb. The front desk staff were always lovely, chatty and very helpful.

Charming hotel in the middle of Baden Baden. Our room was lovely with a very nice view of the city rooftops and the hills. It was quiet even though you can walk to everything from here. Breakfast was very nice and our dinner at the restaurant was quite good. The staff was very accommodating- no language barrier. Would definitely stay here again.

An excellent hotel in a superb central location. Close to all of the major sights and a very short walk from the Friedrichsbad and the Caracalla spa [both of which are well worth visiting]. Reception staff very friendly and helpful. The hotel restaurant is superb, and I had two magnificent meals there. Very highly recommended.

The most lovely hotel! VERY Spacious rooms and hotel staff were so kind! We did not have a reservation during the Christmas Market Season in December 2024, however they were very accommodating and even let us see the few rooms they had available so we could choose. The eating area was decorated to very charming!! Very close to the markets area. Totally recommend!

We loved our stay at this 16th century guesthouse with 21st century amenities. The double room was large, furnished with antiques, and very clean. A kettle, instant coffee and tea were provided. The receptionist was a delight - very welcoming and gave us individualized attention at all times. The hotel is easy to find and there is a spot right in front to stop and unload luggage before parking at the discounted Vincenti Garage (receptionist will give you the special key card). There is no lift, but the staff assist with luggage. The location is ideal for exploring the city on foot, and very close to the thermal baths. After a long day of exploring we decided to relax and dine in the hotel restaurant, (something we never do.) Our dinner was a highlight of the stay! Very cozy German experience. My husband had rabbit cordon bleu, I had duck confit. Both amazing! While waiting in our room for the dining room to open for dinner service, I went into the dining room and asked if I could buy a bottle of wine to enjoy in the room and then bring to dinner. A young man graciously helped me choose the wine from a vast selection, then miutes later brought it to our room with glasses, and opened it with pleasure! The breakfast buffet was abundant and also offered cook to order hot food. The only restaurant in a 10 city tour that offered German pancakes (crepes) which I adore. All in all this was my favorite hotel (out of ten) on our road trip in Germany.

Wonderful old guest house! Beautiful huge original timbers in the room. Great reception and service from the Moment we arrived. Excellent location to all stores, park, sights, spas. We highly recommend this guest house and will stay here again for the historic prominence and location. Breakfast was good too!

Excellent location right in the middle of town....short walk to the baths, down to the old town, or to historic church with a neat walking path overlooking the town. Check-in was very welcoming and she gave us some good tips for enjoying the town....also provided us towels for going to the thermal baths. Summer festival at the Kurhaus was neat and watching the Germany Euro match at an outdoor restaurant was a lot of fun (though the result was not good). Room was very comfortable and large with a nice view of the town. Rooftop patio was fun for lunch one day (though next door they were re-roofing so it was rather loud). Baden-Baden is not the best destination for train travel....not hotel's problem but a consideration when planning your travels....its about 20 min from the train station to the town....either by bus/trolley or by taxi Hotel has a lot of steps, both within and going down into town....if thats a problem, its not for you....Breakfast was delicious. it was in the hotel restaurant which is very gemutlich....also dinner in the hotel restaurant one night was also very good. Everyone working at the hotel was very friendly and welcoming. Made our visit very enjoyable.

This hotel is great. Right in the heart of Baden-Baden, the two famous bath houses are just a few blocks away. We reserved a room for three and received a two bedroom space on the second floor, each room with its own bath. The decor of this place is antique style, and the furnishings in our room and in the breakfast area were all in beautiful condition. The staff was all super friendly and helpful, from check-in to planning nearby hikes (there is a great one into the Black Forest Hills that begins just a few blocks from the front door), and providing info about the town. There was a very good buffet breakfast. It was quite warm while we were there, and there was no AC in our room. You could open windows, but it was hard to get air to circulate, even with the floor fans in the rooms. We were comfortable enough though. There is no parking at the hotel, and the city frowns on unloading vehicles in front of the hotel. There is garage parking about a five minute walk away, about $22 a day, and we had no trouble finding space in it. The old town center is just a few flights of stairs down, and there are plenty of restaurants for all different budgets. We thought Amadeus was delicious. Also, don't miss a stroll along the river front. One of the most beautiful we've been to in Europe. Overall we just loved the character this place has, and the genuine staff members who are glad to help you plan your time in Baden Baden.
