Hotel Ratsstuben

The hotel is centrally located near Lindau harbour and 5 minutes walk from the train station. The room was very clean, a comfortable bed and a good sized en-suite with a very effective shower. We were on the third floor (of 3), fine for us but if you are less mobile, there is no lift so may be a consideration. There is a suite room with a balcony patio area to sit outside, which is a sun trap for those wanting to spend time at the hotel. The owners are really lovely people, and the hotel is family run, very friendly and they go out of their way to help you with tickets, directions, ideas of places to visit etc. Continental breakfast choices are extensive including fresh fruit, cereals, yoghurt, continental meats cheese and fish, beautifully fresh bread rolls, jams, home made cake and eggs any style, including perfectly cooked poached eggs! There are numerous restaurants nearby, bars and a small tourist bus to take you around the island. You can also walk around approx 3 miles. We visited Mainau island famous for its flowers and gardens. BoT trips to Lake Constance are available from Lindau harbour. We thoroughly recommend this hotel, it is convenient for everything and a lovely place to stay
