The Rainhof Barn, Freiburg / Germany
.
In the year 1790, the historic Rainhof barn in the south of Germany served the post coaches as a horse-changing station on their way from France to Austria. Today it is a hotel for people to bide awhile and relax –a very pretty one, we believe.
For those worldly-wise people in the know, they are aware that the “Dreisamvalley” near Freiburg is often described as the warmest point in Germany. Many travellers use the region as a stop off place on their way to Italy, France and Switzerland. All three countries are just around the corner, so to speak. That was also the case all those years ago when the Rainhof offered the coachmen a safe shelter. Since Didi and Johanna Broscheit took over and renovated the building, it has become a small hideaway.

There are 14 double rooms and two suites available within the heritage-protected and refurbished walls. Every room has been individually remodeled and is dedicated to a particular theme. You live between unplastered walls and lots of old wood. One thing that positively attracted our attention was: As soon as you enter the room you feel comfortable – by the way, this is one of the most important criteria we use to recommend a hotel.
On the top floor is a lovely wellness area, with a sauna, steam bath, quiet zone and cosmetic spa. This is a nice place to relax, especially since the large panorama windows and warm, comfortable furnishings invite you to do so.

Ideal for:
A restorative, extended weekend in a region, that doesn’t want to be a second St. Tropez – and has many advantages because of this. There is also a function room in the barn with space for weddings and other festivities.
