The Hotel Merian does not have a lot of curb appeal, but inside it is fresh, clean, and well-lit. It has great access to the city walls, just a short walk. So for the price, the location is very good! The breakfast has nice choices.  …

The hotel is less than ten minutes' walk from the railway station, and about the same into the lovely, fairytale old town of Rothenburg. Staff were friendly and welcoming and very helpful. My room on the first floor was large, with a door to the balcony which is shared and runs around the whole first floor. The views are rather basic (backs of houses/businesses), but the old town makes up for it. There is a service station close by with a supermarket for supplies, should you need anything. Breakfast was good, with a variety of hot and cold food, juices, coffee, tea etc. It was great for a two-night stay (note, there is no bar area). Reception is on the first floor, but there is a lift to this and upper floors. The bed was comfortable, plenty of storage space and seating area. A good shower with plenty of hot water.

We came late to stay here and the staff was very nice to call us to confirm our stay. The hotel was family business and was not large but very nice. The room was nice with comfy bed and nice room. The staff was very nice and friendly, But the very best was breakfast which was very tasty and delicious. Highly recommended.

Family of 4 visited Hotel Merian during Dec 2023.We were given 2 single rooms and a double room and all the rooms were adjoining which worked out really well as we had two teenagers. They got to experience their own hotel room for a bit and the parents got some room to regain their sanity 😊Rooms were clean, brightly lit and smoke-free.We loved our stay and highly recommend you give it a try.Attached a map so you can see how far it is from the town center. It is at most a 15 to 20 min walk.

Not a gem yet, a bit struggling after the pandemic, but the personnel are trying really hard to make the stay as pleasurable as possible. The room’s furniture is old, but the bathroom is top notch. The breakfast is modest, yet offers everything to get a hungry tourist started off for a great day in this amazing town.
