Alte Bauernschänke, Assmannshausen

Our hotel in Assmannshausen is the family owned 3-Star superior Alte Bauernschänke, which celebrated its 600th anniversary in 2008. Originally a wine tavern dating from the 15th century, this half-timbered hotel stands in the centre of the village. The Berg family has owned the Bauernschänke for three generations.

The rooms are individually decorated and feature a television, telephone and safe.
