Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Set beside Hinterzarten's baroque church, the estate borders evergreen woodlands and walking trails throughout the Southern Black Forest Nature Park.
The rooms
Hardwood floors, Art Deco light fixtures, and slipper chairs in bright fabrics bring a tailored warmth to the updated quarters.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
Heated indoor and outdoor pools sit alongside jetted hot tubs, looking out across the private parkland.
Saunas and relaxation
A log cabin sauna centers on an illuminated stone fireplace, beside a circular relaxation lounge with hand-painted murals.
Dogs stay too.
Lobby-Bar & Conservatory
Tufted velvet seats and a curved bar lead into a sunlit conservatory looking out on the grounds.

Adler Stuben
Five dining rooms occupy the 1639 timber house, serving regional Baden fare around a traditional tiled stove.
How it began

The same family has stewarded the estate since 1446, expanding from a 1639 timber house into a multi-century retreat.
