Hotel Bären

Fantastic breakfast!

We stayed at Hotel Baren on our bike tour along the Neckartalradweg. Our group of three remembers it as one of the best hotels we stayed at on our trip! It's the perfect mix of old-style German gasthaus charm and updated, modern facilities. The family that runs it was very helpful and friendly. Our three-person room was large and nicely appointed, and was great value for the money. But what really stood out was the AMAZING breakfast buffet made up of all locally sourced ingredients, including meats and cheeses from the in-house metgerei (butcher shop). Honestly, we would go out of our way to stay there again just for the breakfast. As bicycle tourists we appreciate the locked bike storage area where we could leave our bikes overnight. The town of Marbach itself is a very interesting small walled city that overlooks the Neckar. Although we didn't appreciate the steep uphill to the town at the end of a day of biking, it was worth it to get to this hotel and town. We had an excellent Italian dinner (pizza and pasta dishes) at the nearby Trattoria Toscana resturant. We'd 100% stay at Hotel Baren again.

Excellent stay with no issues to note.

Nice hotel right in the centro of a tiny and lovely town.
