Laundry in Bamberg / Rothenburg, Germany?
 
We'll need to do a load of laundry half way through our trip, while we're in Bamberg or Rothenburg.

Any suggestions on where to find a place to do it ourselves?

We have done laundry at a launderette in Rothenburg very near the train station: Johanitergasse 9. It was popular and there was a wait.

If you happen to stay at the Gasthof Goldener Greifen in Rothenburg, they will either do a load for you or allow you to do it yourself, for a fee in both cases. We had a load done. It is handy to go about your day and come back to the room to find a basket of nicely folded clean clothes.

Regards, Gary

Here's what many German vacationers do - rent an apartment like this one and do the wash "at home" at your convenience:

Russ,
It looks like a nice place, but it does not have a washer or a dryer.

The x's mean it DOES have a washer and dryer. CJ

oops! Sorry for my mistake!

Gary_Mc - Thanks for the info for Rothenburg. We actually enjoy our launderette visit when we are travelling, and usually come away with some kind of interesting experience as a memory.

Russ - We leave in 5 days and all the hotel rooms have already been booked, so apartment staying is not the answer to our laundry problem. However, thanks for the suggestion.

Anybody - Still looking for a suggestion for Bamberg...

artstuff; I'm envious of your trip! Be sure to enjoy a smoke beer in Bamberg. It's unusual but delicious!

Thank you for your Bamberg launderette info. I think perhaps we'll have more time to do our laundry in Bamberg, between visiting breweries. At least it will make doing the laundry more fun.

Yes, we plan on trying a Rauchbier while in Bamberg. I also want to try a Radler at some point on our trip, since I'm already a 7-up drinker.

Beers for everyone!!! Thanks, Robyn :)>-
