Best Luxury Hotels In Baden-Baden

The natural hot springs of this spa town made it a hotspot for fashionable 19th-century visitors seeking to take the salt and radon rich thermal waters. Ensconced in the Black Forest, it has a beautiful backdrop, with healing air and baths. Indeed its name actually means baths (x2) and the Oos River flows through the town centre, making it especially scenic. However, it’s not all about the spa, with many outdoor pursuits and culture being a big part of the appeal here. Baden-Baden was considered to be the capital of Europe come summertime, during the Belle Époque era and much of the architecture of this heyday can still be seen.
