Roomers Baden-Baden, Autograph Collection
A rooftop pool and award-winning bar next to the Festspielhaus
About this hotel
The hotel sits close to the Festspielhaus, one of Europe's largest concert and opera venues, and builds its stay around a rooftop that works from morning to night. An outdoor pool sits one floor below the rooftop bar and terrace, so a swim can flow straight into a cocktail with a view over the Black Forest hills. The bar itself has picked up awards for its cocktail program, and a gym with the same forest view rounds out the wellness side of a stay. It is a compact, design-led property built around one excellent shared space rather than several competing venues.

- Near the Festspielhaus
- Own spa facilities
- Award-winning cocktails
Our take
The rooftop is the reason to book Roomers Baden-Baden: an outdoor pool with an award-winning cocktail bar and terrace on the floor above. Add the hotel's own spa and a gym with a view of the Black Forest, and a whole day can pass without leaving the property. It sits close to the Festspielhaus, which suits a concert night. I recommend it for couples and groups of friends; families with young children may find the bar-led atmosphere less suited to them.
- Book a rooftop table for sunset if the view over the Black Forest matters as much as the cocktail
- Reserve a cabana or pool spot early on weekends, the rooftop deck fills up fast
- Pair a Festspielhaus performance with a drink at the rooftop bar before or after the show
Why we love it

Why guests love itRoomers Baden-Baden, Autograph Collection is built around its roof: an outdoor pool on the upper floor, with an award-winning bar and terrace one level above it. Families can spend a full day between the pool, the hotel's own spa and a gym that looks out toward the Black Forest without leaving the building. The Festspielhaus is close by for parents planning an evening concert. The mood leans toward cocktails and design, so I would choose it for older children rather than toddlers.
