Dining
Rössle
This family-run restaurant serves delicious, fresh food made with choice ingredients. Alongside the interesting "Chef's Menu" and classics, the specials are written up on the blackboard – it is well worth taking a punt on the likes of "house-made venison patties with juniper cream" or "medallions of Breton monkfish with saffron sauce". Add to that attentive service, a friendly atmosphere and a lovely terrace. Tip: The guestrooms feature an attractive blend of warm wood and sleek design.
WebsiteSchäck's Adler
Christoph and Sandra Schäck have brought to life this picture-perfect hotel. The atmosphere in the wood-panelled dining rooms is really cosy, the service is very friendly, the cuisine is ambitious and tasty – the emphasis is on regional ingredients and seasonal produce. There is also the appealing Strumbel Bar and a number of extremely well-kept rooms.
WebsiteHugenhof
Inside Hugenhof is every bit as attractive as its exterior suggests with its lovely high ceilings, cosy old beams and a roaring open fire in winter. Every evening brings a different 4-course menu, which chef Klaus Ditz will announce at your table. This is accompanied by expert wine selections from his fellow chef and sommelier. The rooms are simple but smart.
