Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Burg Colmberg

This 13th-century castle 18 miles east of Rothenburg has been converted into a hotel and maintains a high standard of comfort within its original medieval walls without sacrificing the atmosphere. Logs are often burning in the fireplace of the entrance hall, illuminating an original Tin Lizzy Model T Ford from 1917. The restaurant Zur Remise serves venison from the castle's own hunting grounds, and the hotel will organize guided hiking tours, including with Theobald von Colmberg. The original castle chapel is a popular spot for weddings, and the castle often books out for them in summer.
