Asperg, Germany
From Michelin Guide
Dedicated, cordial and consistent service is the name of the game in the Ottenbacher family establishment, a fact which can be put down to their long tradition of hospitality, which spans four generations! Here, they cultivate tradition and yet continue to evolve – as you can see in the spruce half-timbered house with its green shutters, where historical charm meets more modern and elegant design features. Moritz Feichtinger's classic cuisine also draws on the region for inspiration. There is a choice of three menus - including a vegan menu - and à la carte dishes. Diners can also look forward to an excellent wine list. Hotel Adler has comfortable guestrooms.
