2 Best Hotels in Titisee, The Black Forest

In this charming property right on the lake and just a short drive from the busy town, guests can take a dip in the water from the private beach or relax in the sauna or steam room cleverly built inside wine barrels. Most of the Alpine-style wood-lined guest rooms with beamed ceilings have balconies overlooking the lake. Meals are served in the cozy restaurant downstairs with views onto the lake; dinner features specialties like duck breast with carrots, celery, and pomegranate. The hotel has a small pool inside plus the wine barrel areas outside.

Right on the lake, this hotel has the best location in town, and most rooms have a balcony with great views. A spa and pool area makes for a great escape from both the summer heat and the winter doldrums (the outdoor infinity pool is heated); special packages in winter include skates and snowshoes for rent.
