Your hosts
The Rindenmühle, steeped in history, has been owned by today's host family Weißer since 1611. In 1988, they had the property converted into today's four-star hotel. Surrounded by magnificent gardens and lush meadows, the Romantik Hotel Rindenmühle presents itself with all the amenities of a first-class establishment without neglecting Black Forest tradition. The Weißer family is always on the lookout to make your stay even better, more pleasant and more beautiful.
