Seminars for up to 30 people, family celebrations and weddings for up to 70 guests, and 30 bedrooms on site: the Lamm in Rotensol, a village of Bad Herrenalb in the Northern Black Forest, combines a hotel, a restaurant and a wine cellar under one roof. It is a family business, and its setting, a plateau of meadows and forest away from city traffic, suits small groups who want to work and stay in one place.
Seminars and company events
The hotel has three meeting rooms and a vaulted wine cellar that can also be booked for a meeting. The largest room, Saal Gaistal, measures about 90 m² and takes up to 30 people. It divides into the two smaller rooms, Saal Dobeltal (42 m², up to 10) and Saal Albtal (47 m², up to 16). The meeting request form accepts groups of up to 40 in total. Layouts on offer are parliamentary, block, horseshoe, one long table and a circle of chairs, with others on request.
Each room rental includes two pinboards, a flipchart, a moderator case and a projection screen, and the room fee covers the whole length of the meeting. Projectors, extra screens, flipcharts and pinboards can be added. Wi-Fi is free throughout the hotel. For the evening, the team suggests a wine tasting in the cellar, a barbecue at the grill hut, or outdoor activities with a partner company, from archery to paragliding. The house is EMAS certified for environmental management.
The Lamm also hosts company Christmas parties and publishes seasonal events, such as an autumn wine tasting and a New Year's Eve evening.
Weddings and receptions
The Lamm hosts weddings, birthdays and family celebrations for 2 to 70 guests. Menus are drawn up with the hosts, starting from seasonal suggestions the hotel publishes. The wine cellar is proposed for a sparkling wine reception before dinner. In the warmer months, the terrace and the Lammgarten, the hotel garden with views over forest and meadows, serve for coffee and cake or drinks outdoors. The website does not mention a ceremony space on the premises.

Saal Gaistal: about 90 m², up to 30 people, divisible. Saal Albtal: 47 m², up to 16. Saal Dobeltal: 42 m², up to 10. Weinkeller: 22 m², up to 10, no daylight.

Both are recommended in summer, for groups of 12 or more.
Accommodation
The hotel has 30 individually furnished rooms in four categories: Komfort rooms, Komfort rooms with forest view, junior suites and the Grand Suite. Meeting guests can reserve single and double rooms with their booking, and the hotel sells short-break packages built around wine, golf and nature.
Catering
The restaurant cooks seasonal, regional dishes, and menus for meetings and celebrations are put together on request. The Vinothek and the wine cellar are part of the house, and the family also sells wine online.
History and setting
The Schwemmle family runs the Lamm. Rotensol sits above the spa town of Bad Herrenalb, surrounded by the woods and hiking trails of the Northern Black Forest, which makes it easy to add a walk or an outdoor program to a meeting day.
Getting there
The hotel is at Mönchstraße 31 in Rotensol, 76332 Bad Herrenalb. Bad Herrenalb is linked to Karlsruhe by the S1 light rail line, and the closest airport is Karlsruhe/Baden-Baden.
