Rathausglöckel
About
The Hotel Rathausglöckel is a charming 4‑star boutique property tucked into the historic heart of Baden‑Baden. With only 14 rooms and suites spread over three floors and two heritage buildings, it offers an intimate atmosphere that feels like a home away from home. The building dates back to the 17th century and has evolved through many eras—first a simple dwelling, then a 19th‑century restaurant, and today a renovated hotel that blends historic charm with modern comforts. Its crystal‑blue clock tower, the namesake "Rathausglöckel", is a local landmark that adds to its unique story. Guests can choose from a range of individually designed rooms, including Junior Suites and conventional single or double rooms. The on‑site restaurant serves a daily breakfast buffet and a nightly dinner menu that is available Wednesday through Sunday from 5:30 p.m. The elegant wine cellar provides a quiet setting for evening drinks, while the rooftop terrace offers panoramic views of the nearby Hohenbaden ridge. The hotel’s central location places it just steps from Baden‑Baden’s thermal baths, the famous Friedrichsbad, and the Caracalla Spa, making it an ideal base for both leisure and business travelers. Because the property is not wheelchair accessible and has no elevator, guests with mobility needs may wish to plan accordingly.
