This traditional family-run hotel is set in a picturesque location in the Bavarian market-village of Kastl, in the Lauterachtal (River Lauterach Valley), amid the Franconian Jura mountain range. A former monastery and a series of fine half-timbered houses provide a beautiful backdrop to the Gasthof Schwarzer Bär. Kastl is a state-recognised recuperation resort, and the hiking and cycling paths will ensure you enjoy your stay in the area, whether you are seeking an activity holiday or mere relaxation in these calm surroundings. You can enjoy a good relaxing night's sleep here in these quiet rooms by the market square, 150 metres from the main road. Wake up in the mornings to a rich hotel breakfast (included in the rate). For dinner you should try out the full range of regional and seasonal delicacies, such as local trout or game. Hire a bicycle directly from the hotel, and go and explore the scenic area on 2 wheels.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 8.4 for a two-person trip.
