We stayed at this delightful hotel a while back and are planning to return. The owner/chef was VERY helpful. Carried our bags to our room and parked our car for us in the parking garage...and after seeing the narrow streets we were very grateful! We stayed in one of the turret rooms and it was clean and somewhat whimsical. We... More

We just loved the quaintness and beauty of Meersburg. We are glad we went out of our way to see the town and spend the night. We probably needed two nights so that we could have taken a boat ride to the island or around the lake. The Inn is very cute. When we checked in at 2:20 pm, they... More

The Gasthof zum Baeren truly deserves its place as the Number 1 hotel in Meersburg. My wife and I have stayed there twice and are going back again this year. The hotel is utterly charming, and has a magical atmosphere all of its own that will bring you back in time. The staff are extremely helpful and charming also. The... More

We decided to add 2 nights on the Bodensee to our Bavaria/Black Forest vacation prior to checking in to our week's timeshare exchange in Oberstaufen. We were able to book Gasthof zum Baren via email. Booking was easy, responses were quick, and all questions cheerfully answered. Rates were very reasonable, I thought. We had room #14, which was on the... More

As this place isn't listed separately under restaurant, I'd like to take the chance to share my restaurant experience. Stayed at the hotel many years ago and returned to have lunch on our way along Lake Constance as I kept the whole place with its antique rooms in a good memory. Great choice of dishes and a great selection of... More

Charming host (who insisted on carrying bags up the stairs!) and perfect location. Although the weather took the sparkle out of the Bodensee we enjoyed our time in Meersburg. Walking beside the lakefront, touring the castle and enjoying the history of the town. Parking in a covered garage and the excellent on-site restaurant pluses. More

Our room was bright and clean and the bed was like floating on a cloud. What a sweet memory to have of our time in Meersburg! More

This hotel is utterly charming and delightful. Perfect preserved facade with clean, well kept rooms and pristine white linen. Restaurant was also good (be sure to try the berry dessert, which is a mix of slightly sweetened summer berries with cream/ice cream, or the apple dessert of cinnamon apple filled donuts with icecream - all at incredibly reasonable prices). We... More

A great place to stay. The restaurant food was magnificent. Rooms were very well maintained. Only complaint was that the rooms weren't cleaned until later in the afternoon, thereby preventing an afternoon nap. But this was typical of other German towns. The hotel is situated in the upper town area of Meersburg, so going to the shoreline to catch the... More

Stayed for two nights with my husband on a driving trip to Salzburg. On arrival beautiful building and had car directed to tiny garage- beware as easy to catch car on pillars in the garage! Next we were told our room was on top floor! I am partially disabled and as we knew there was no elevator had asked for... More
