"What a beautiful garden" Louis the 14th called out
As he gazed into the Ortenau's blossoming Landscape!
And our hotel is located right in the middle - a pearl in the mid-Black Forest. Our Hotel in Durbach is located in one of the most beautiful valleys in the Ortenau region, an enchanting landscape beween forests and sunny vineyards where the famous Baden wines grow.
Between the gentle mountain vineyards and the woody mountain ranges there are wonderful opportunities to hike, bike or ride horses - from winding paths and picturesque view points your eyes will sweep to far beyond the Rhine Valley, past the Strasbourg Cathedral to the Vosges Mountains.
The west side of the Black Forest is pampered by the sun and offers ideal conditions for vineyards - and right in the middle of this blessed landscape in the Ortenau you will find our nature hotel: The Rebstock Durbach.
You can even look down on us - our hotel is situated between gentle rolling hills and when you look from the heights of the Durbach Valley it seems to be embedded like a pearl in a seashell.
And the pearl in these hills is the park landscape that surrounds our hotel and guest house - the surrounding landscape is complemented by Mediterranean quotes, flowers, lake, sun terrace and sculptures.
You can feel our love of the Mediterranean culture and you will understand why this region is called "Germany's Tuscany".
Close to the Europa-Park, Strasbourg and the Vosges Mountains, we are located in a central yet quiet location.

The Rhine Valley for viniculture & Durbacher Wine
A tradition that continues to this day - even in our hotel
Just like in most regions where good wine is cultivated, cultural diversity and "joie de vivre" have become a part of life in the Ortenau. If you look to the cities and towns in the region, you will be surprised with the quality of the offers. The Rebstock Durbach, one of the leading hotels in the mid Rhine Valley, has been committed to this standard for 5 generations - and profits at the same time from the privileged location in the midst of one of Germany's top viniculture areas.
But Durbach is not just one of the many excellent wine towns in the Rhine Valley. Rather it is something of a "primus inter pares", the first among equals, because year for year the Durbach wines are selected as the best in the region.
It's no surprise - you really could say Durbach lives professionally and passionately from wine. 13 traditional Wineries and a winegrower's cooperative with more than 320 members cultivate wines that consistently delight the jurors. They have received countless prizes.
We will be happy to organize wine tastings with selected wineries for you. And we have chosen a select few of our favorites as part of our "Rebstock Durbach Edition". Quality wines at an attractive price - you will be thrilled! Many of the events in our hotel, in Durbach and in the Rhine Valley revolve around wine the whole year through. Indulge in the moment and see for yourself!
