Sonnenbichl Hotel at the Rotfischbach

About us

Hotel Sonnenbichl - near Oberstdorf

The Allgäu is our home and we would like to win you over to Sonnenbichl as an “Allgäu fan”. It holds treasures, some of which are obvious how
  • the sublime nature that touches our heart and soul when we move or rest in it consciously and with amazed eyes. Our thoughts become quiet in it and the essence of life emerges again.
  • our wellness area “Vitaldörfle”, where you can forget your everyday life and
  • Our Allgäu cuisine at its finest.

But there is a lot, from Allgäu games, films, crime novels, myths, legends and fairy tales to cultural and traditional events that you can still discover as a guest with us. Our greatest joy would be if you went home fully refreshed and took with you many Allgäu stories and experiences and said:

"It was so beautiful in Allgäu and Sonnenbichl - I'll be back."


In the fourth generation
Alois and Therese Besler made the start in 1926 - the “Pension Rotfisch” emerged from a small farm. From 1949 onwards, holiday guests could feel comfortable in a cozy guest room and Georg and Therese Scheuerl, who were the second generation to take over the house in 1952, transformed the simple guesthouse into the "Spa and Sport Hotel Sonnenbichl". In 1981, third generation Wolfgang and Anita Scheuerl expanded the house for 98 guests and in 1999 with the construction of the all-weather adventure terrace and the "Vitaldörfle ". In 2001 you received support from the fourth generation, Katrin and Martin Scheuerl, who today welcome you as your host family in Sonnenbichl. In 2005 and 2008, all south-facing balcony rooms and the exterior facade were redesigned. Since the turn of the year 2014/2015, our guests have been able to enjoy a completely redesigned indoor swimming pool. Elegant tiles in combination with natural stones, underwater lighting and a new entrance give our swimming pool a modern look.

In 2018 we had a new elevator installed for you and renovated some rooms.

Since 2020, you have been able to help yourself to our new breakfast buffet and be welcomed by our employees at the new reception. In the new lobby lounge area you can make yourself comfortable, browse the books in the library and sit together in the living room.

In 2021, our standard rooms in the guest house were modernized and a new family apartment was created.

In 2023 we installed a photovoltaic system with 170 kW peak on our roofs. In addition, the focus was on the renewal of our heating control, hot water preparation, heat recovery and the integration of the existing solar thermal system.
