Seminars for up to 30 participants, private dinners and family celebrations for up to 45 guests, and residential meetings with full board all take place at Prinzhotel Rothenburg, a privately run hotel on the old town wall of Rothenburg ob der Tauber. Its restaurant, Topinambur, and its cocktail bar take care of meals from the coffee break to the evening drink.
Seminars and company events
The hotel has a new meeting room for up to 30 people, with plenty of daylight and a view of the garden. It can be set up in rows, as a block, as a banquet, in a U-shape or in parliament style. Equipment includes an HDMI ceiling projector, a moderator's table and case, flipcharts and Metaplan pens. The room is fully air-conditioned, the chairs are ergonomic with lumbar support, and lighting scenes can be adjusted to avoid glare. Three packages are offered: a day seminar with a two-course lunch, a residential package with half board, and a residential package with full board, which adds a three-course dinner at Topinambur and time at the cocktail bar. Coffee breaks are included in each package and can be upgraded, while meeting drinks and materials are unlimited. Room hire is charged separately and depends on the size of the booking.
Weddings and receptions
The official site does not present weddings. For private celebrations, the restaurant has a separate, air-conditioned room for up to 45 guests that can be arranged as needed. It opens directly onto a sunny terrace, which works well for an aperitif, and the adjoining Kraftstube can be added as a dance floor. The hotel lists birthdays, anniversaries, family celebrations and business dinners among the events it hosts.
Rooms and capacities
The meeting room seats up to 30 people. The event room at Topinambur takes up to 45 guests, with the Kraftstube next door for dancing. The site does not give surface areas for either space.
Accommodation
Bedrooms come in several categories: Standard rooms of 20 to 23 square meters, Superior rooms of 22 to 26 square meters with an optional whirlpool tub, and Bel Etage rooms of 24 to 29 square meters. A family room of about 40 square meters sleeps up to six. Two private wellness suites of about 50 square meters complete the range, one with a double whirlpool and one with a steam bath. The hotel describes itself as barrier-free.
Catering
Topinambur serves seasonal, regional cooking and has a sun terrace. For group events, the kitchen writes a menu for each occasion, and from 15 guests it can serve a starter buffet before the main course and a dessert buffet. Breakfast is a daily buffet. In the evening, TopinamBAR serves cocktails.
History and setting
The hotel stands at An der Hofstatt 3, in the historic old town, right by the medieval town wall. The Marktplatz and the Plönlein, two of the most photographed corners of Rothenburg, are within walking distance, which makes a guided walk through the old town easy to add to a program.
Getting there
Public car park P4 is about two minutes on foot, and cars can drive up to the entrance to load and unload. The hotel also has a page for coach and group arrivals.
