Our hotel occupies a very special spot in the St. Georgen district of Freiburg. We appreciate our location to the full, and so do our guests – whether they come as holidaymakers, business travellers, conference attendees or diners at our restaurant. Here in the district of St. Georgen, the sheer vibrancy of the Black Forest city of Freiburg is especially magnetic. If you feel like heading into town, you can simply catch a bus from right outside the hotel. Your car will be quite safe in one of our parking areas or the underground car park – which are free of charge.
A peerless gem
Close to town with vineyard views. For business trips with that holiday feel.
About us:
A tradition of hospitality!
The Hotel Zum Schiff has been owned by the Frey family for more than two centuries. Hospitality and a personal touch guests can rely on are core elements of our business philosophy. Many of our staff members have been with us for 10 years or more – and we are proud of that too!
About the hotel
Why choose the Hotel Zum Schiff?
Situated on the site of a Roman road, St. Georgen has always been a strategically important place. Carriages bearing goods and passengers to or from the nearby Rhine ports would stop over here. Back then the ‘Zum Schiff’ was a stagecoach inn and customs station with its own blacksmith’s workshop and a large farm building. For this reason, those making their way to or from the shipping ports would gratefully stop for sustenance.
