Here follows a list of Hotels I stayed in while traveling through Germany during the past 6 years. I selected them either as being recommended by the Lonely Planet Guide or having a high rating on Booking.com

Germany	Altenahr - Hotel zum Schwarzen Kreuz This 1,000 years old historic hotel is excellent value and great to stay. Located right on the Ahr river and at the beginning of the Rote Wein Strasse and in the centre of a wide range of nature walks.
	Altenahr - Hotel Ruland Upmarket hotel at moderate prices. Overlooking the Ahr river. Free Wifi. Excellent restaurant. Located right on the Ahr river and at the beginning of the Rote Wein Strasse and in the centre of a wide range of nature walks.
	Baden Baden - Hotel am Markt Great budget hotel in the very centre of this stylish and very elegant city and only 200 meters from the main spa baths. Have a glass of wine and lunch at Wallstreet im Hamilton's terrace right on the tiny Oos river. Trying some delicious pastry (perhaps with a glass of bubbly) from Peter's am Leo on Leopoldplatz is also a must !
	Baden Baden - Hotel Bischoff Gernbacher Str.10-12 Tel. : +49 7221 3060 Also a good choice hotel in the centre and just 100 meters from the main spa baths.
	Bernkastel-Kues - Sankt Maximillian On the Mosel river. The hotel has its own winery and wine cellar. Free wine tasting every Friday evening, great place to stay. It also has a great collection of antique Ofentafeln.
	Boppard - Rhein Hotel Rebstock Right on the river's edge of the "Romantic Rhine, opposite the ferry. Budget prices, great art deco dining room. The nearby treacherous rock of the Lorelei no longer exists these days (removed to facilitate shipping), so have a drink or meal in town instead right at the river's edge and watch the ships go by.
	Boppard - Hotel Baudobriga Right on the river's edge of the "Romantic Rhine.   Blog entry Quality accomodation at a moderate price. Friendly staff. Free Wifi. Flatscreen TV. Quality wines from their own winery.
Romantische Strasse	Füssen - Gasthof zum Hechten If you must see that King Ludwig II (quite ugly) castle, then stay at this lovely hotel in Füssen, the starting point of the "Romantische Strasse". The hotel's Medieval breakfast room is quite spectacular, and the Füssen indoor markets are a sheer delight for both eye and palate.
	Nördlingen - Keiserhof Hotel Sonne As it was good enough for 4 German Emperors, 3 Kings and even Goethe, then it certainly should be good enough for you. A historic place to overnight, in the most authentic and least touristic Medieval town along the Romantische Strasse. When there, don't forget to pay a visit to the eccentric Cafe Radlos.
	Sankt Peter - Steingrubenhof Not a hotel, but three self contained holiday apartments attached to a diary farm in the Black Forest. A great place to have as base for nature walks. Just 50 meters from the Waldcafe and 1 km from the St. Peters village centre.
