This welcoming family-run number lodges in a half-timbered house a couple of minutes' stroll from the monastery. Light, spacious rooms are done out in modern Black Forest style, with pale wood, forest-green tones and stag-embossed cushions. Connecting rooms are available for families. There's a highly regarded, region-focused restaurant (mains €19 to €26) and a lounge warmed by an open fire.
