Dating from 1850, this family run, traditional hotel offers cozy accommodations in the small Franconian town of Gößweinstein, right in the heart of the Franconian Switzerland Veldenstein Forest Nature Park. The comfortable rooms of the Gasthof zum Löwen hotel are furnished in a rustic style, and you can wake up to a delicious breakfast buffet each morning. Coffee and tempting homemade cake and pastries are available in the afternoons. Let the traditional restaurant spoil you in the evenings with some excellent, home-style cooking. Located in the center of town, right across from the Basilica, Gasthof zum Löwen makes an ideal base for exploring this picturesque town. The rural location of the town also makes it ideal for hiking and cycling adventures in the surrounding countryside.
