What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
The rooms are attractive with clean-lined design and the latest technology. In summer, the roof terrace is the ideal place to enjoy a relaxing cocktail.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
The Ach river flows through quiet Schelklingen. Just beyond town, hiking trails climb into the Swabian Alb hills.
The rooms
Bedrooms keep to a clean, functional layout, with box-spring beds and digital tablets on the nightstand.
Bar
Vinothek
Wooden barrels serve as standing tables beside floor-to-ceiling wine racks, and the counter pours draft beer.
At the table
Bistro³ serves seasonal dinners beneath dome pendants, and mornings start at a buffet counter with a chalkboard menu.
How it began
The hotel takes its name from its street address. The building was Schelklingen's civic retirement home until a 2014 conversion.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.

Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
