Entering the Sorell Hotel Rüden, you immediately feel: Here, history is alive. And yet, nothing is missing that makes modern travel and work comfortable. Situated in a magnificent guild house from the 18th century, the hotel combines historic charm with contemporary comfort – personally managed, stylishly furnished, and with an open view of the needs of its guests.
The house is centrally located in Schaffhausen's pedestrian zone, just a few steps from the train station. The historic old town begins right next door – with its narrow streets, boutiques, cafes, and the nearby Rhine. If you want to combine city flair and relaxation, you are in the right place. 30 individually designed rooms invite you to arrive and unwind – with stylish interiors, free bicycles for exploring the surroundings, and a breakfast that has always held a special place in the Sorell Group.
A hotel with history – Rooms with character
The hotel's rooms tell the story of the city in their own way. Original beams, elements of old city walls, or artistic wooden details bring Schaffhausen's past into the present. A unique mix of historic flair and modern, restrained design is created – an invitation to feel good for business travelers as well as culture enthusiasts.
The room categories are versatile – from charming single rooms to spacious suites. Free Wi-Fi, high-quality beds, and an inspiring ambiance ensure a pleasant stay in a quiet atmosphere.
Breakfast with soul – Culinary excellence
Although the Rüden Hotel does not have a restaurant of its own, the breakfast is a real highlight. Prepared with love, made from regional products, and served in a bright breakfast room, it makes the start of the day a special experience. For lunch, dinner, or aperitifs, numerous restaurants, bars, and cafes are in the immediate vicinity – the hotel team is happy to recommend the best addresses.
Meetings with Atmosphere – Days in a historic setting
Hosting meetings at the Rüden Hotel benefits from a special environment: six individually designed meeting rooms – including the magnificent guild hall with stucco ceilings and chandeliers – provide the perfect setting for seminars, meetings, or workshops. Warm wooden furniture, visible beams, and plenty of natural light create a work environment that promotes concentration and creativity.
All rooms can be flexibly furnished and equipped with modern technology. Upon request, the hotel team can also provide culinary support during breaks – from simple coffee to stylish aperitifs.

Whether festive private parties, anniversaries, receptions, or small weddings: The Sorell Hotel Rüden offers the right setting. The historic rooms exude character, individuality, and elegance – ideal for events with personality. Celebrate without haste, with good accessibility and an engaged team that thinks along.
