Hotel Neustädter Hof
A 19th-century building close to Neustadt's own station
About this hotel
Hotel Neustädter Hof occupies a charming nineteenth-century building close to Neustadt Bahnhof, seven minutes by taxi from Badeparadies Schwarzwald and two minutes' walk from the station itself, useful for a family combining a water park trip with a wider Black Forest rail exploration. Free breakfast, free parking and free Wi-Fi are bundled into every stay, and the on-site restaurant, bar and lounge mean dinner doesn't require another trip out once everyone's exhausted from a full day of slides. Pet-friendly throughout, and reviews average 7.8 across 150 stays, a modest but workable rating for a historic, centrally positioned guesthouse near the rail line. None of this replaces the water park itself, but it rounds out the hours before and after slides in a way a bare room simply can't manage on its own.

Our take
Hotel Neustädter Hof suits a family wanting a historic building close to Neustadt's own train station, useful for combining the water park with wider regional rail trips. It's less suited to anyone wanting to walk directly to Badeparadies Schwarzwald, since this property sits a short taxi ride from the entrance instead. Families who've stayed nearby tend to agree this kind of property earns its place on a shortlist rather than topping it outright.
- ✓Use the nearby Neustadt Bahnhof for a wider Black Forest day trip beyond just Freiburg on a rest day.
- ✓Book the taxi to Badeparadies Schwarzwald in advance during peak season, since this property sits a few minutes out.
- ✓Eat at the on-site restaurant at least once, since it saves a walk out after a tiring water park day.
Why we love it
- Historic 19th-century building with genuine character throughout
- Two-minute walk to Neustadt's own train station
- Free breakfast and parking bundled into every stay
- On-site restaurant, bar and lounge for evening meals
Why guests love itBeing two minutes from Neustadt Bahnhof meant we turned one rest day into a wider Black Forest rail trip instead of another round of slides at Badeparadies Schwarzwald, which the kids ended up loving just as much. The historic building gave the whole stay a different character than the newer hotels closer to the lake. We'd return for another Badeparadies Schwarzwald trip without hesitation, mostly for how little friction the whole stay actually involved day to day.
