Germany - The 5 star Hotel Römerbad in Badenweiler throughout its long history traditionally known as the "Cultural Residence" has been purchased by the Von der Heyden Group. It is stunningly located at the hill of the Castle Square and surrounded by 25.000 sqm owned park and forests overlooking French Vosges Mountains, Rhein intervale and the Old Town of Badenweiler in the Markgräfler Region, Germany. Basel and Mulhouse are only a 20 minutes drive away.

Von der Heyden Group have purchased the Hotel Römerbad from Mr Karl-Heinz Berkner who owned the Hotel since 2005. He once came to Badenweiler to heal his broken hand with thermal waters and together with Mrs Brigitte Leitner saved the Hotel from insolvency, after the building went into serious financial problems following the death of the Joner's family. Between 2005-2009 thorough renovation works were conducted and reached 4 mln Euros. The Hotel Römerbad was promoted from "First Class Superior" to "Luxury Class".

Starting from October 1, 2009, the Hotel Römerbad will be managed by the IBB Hotels, a Spanish origin hotel chain that has been now operating for some 17 years on the Spanish, Polish and German markets.

Nowadays, the Hotel Römerbad offers to its guests 76 ample rooms and suites designed individually and overlooking the French Vosges Mountains, the Castle and a huge 2,5 hectare park surrounding the Hotel.
