So, I literally Googled "best towns in Germany" and saw people talking about Meersburg -- never heard of it before, but was planning a driving trip through Southern Germany, Austria and Switzerland -- and decided to stay two days at the Hotel Zum Schiff. I'll just sum it up and say that Meersburg was the hightlight of our two-week trip.... More

Booked one of the suites, great value for money, great views from the room on the bodensee, very nice and spacious private terrace. Food in the restaurant is ok, nothing more, but again a great view. Excelently located on the lakeside walk. Very good service, private parking in hotel (necessary in meersburg). Great place.

What a great hotel, with fab views of the lake. The staff were friendly and efficient. The room clean and with a very large comfy bed plus the essential extra pillows! The view from the bed room window was stunning, the moon lite lake at night and the sun rise later. Oops nearly forgot those mountains in the back ground... More

Stayed here for one night traveling through with my husband and two small kids. The best part is the location and view of this hotel! It's right on the lake, with beautiful views. Our room was quite spacious, very clean, and more modern than I expected. I was quite impressed with the room itself and then looking out onto the... More

I know this hotel has been in business since at least 1937, because my father stayed there then! So it must be doing something right. With the main street behind and the lake in front, it is perfectly located. Rooms facing the lake must have wonderful views, but ours overlooked the courtyard at the rear. Breakfast was good. Guests eating... More

This hotel is fabulous. Wonderful location on the lake, well appointed rooms (dodgy pillows but I think all the hotels would have them!) and very convenient fit everything. Spotlessly clean too. I would recommend this hotel highly, especially for the price.

For our first visit to Meersburg, the Hotel Zum Schiff initially offered a pleasant surprise with it's wonderful location. Likewise, the staff we encountered the evening of our arrival were both pleasant and helpful. The room was large and comfortable, though dated to be sure. Some of the lights worked, some didn't, some worked sometimes and not other times... couldn't... More

The hotel, is on the lakeside, I think all the rooms would have a lake view, ours did and was spacious and clean. We spent many an hour in the comfortable armchairs gazing at the lake activity. A small boat gave trips from alongside the hotel. Parking in Meersburg is a problem, but the manager for only €5 a day... More

Part of the hotel is refurbished without loosing the touch of an excellent traditional old house. Reception very friendly, hotel restaurant with its terrace towards the lake Bodensee invites to relax with good fish dishes and local wines. Brakefast buffet couled not be better, offers dishes for all tastes due to the location of the hotel, parking is a little... More
