Markgraeflerland
The Hirschen at Hauptstrasse 69 in Sulzburg is Douce Steiner's hotel as well as her restaurant, a small Markgraeflerland house where the rooms and the dining room share one booking desk.
The list: Rooms sit over Douce Steiner's dining room, so the restaurant's Markgraeflerland-led list is the house list.
Tip: Rooms are few and tied to the restaurant's Wednesday-to-Saturday rhythm, so book both together.
Black Forest
The Traube Tonbach sits on the Tonbach valley road above Baiersbronn and houses the three-star Schwarzwaldstube with its chef sommelier, so the hotel cellar doubles as the restaurant's.
The list: Cellar shared with the three-MICHELIN-star Schwarzwaldstube and run by chef sommelier Stéphane Gass, holder of the MICHELIN Sommelier Award.
Tip: Schwarzwaldstube tables go through the hotel's own reservations desk and are taken months ahead.
Black Forest
A five-star family house at Baiersbronn-Mitteltal whose dining rooms include the three-star Restaurant Bareiss, with sommelier Teoman Mezda covering the wine across the whole property.
The list: Sommelier Teoman Mezda covers the wine across the property, including the three-star Restaurant Bareiss list.
Tip: Several restaurants share the one address, so name the room you want when booking; only one carries three stars.
Kaiserstuhl
Rooms above and beside the Keller family's Schwarzer Adler at Badbergstrasse 23 on the Kaiserstuhl, a house whose cellar MICHELIN rates among the strongest wine lists in Germany.
The list: Guests eat and drink from a cellar MICHELIN rates among the best in Germany, built on the family's own Weingut Franz Keller and deep Bordeaux stocks.
Tip: The Weingut itself is a short walk up the same street at number 44, with its own tasting room.
Ortenau
A four-star-superior house at Tal 1 in Durbach that bills itself as a Weinhotel on the Badische Weinstrasse, with the Makidan restaurant and Ortenau vineyards starting at the door.
The list: Presents itself as a Weinhotel on the Badische Weinstrasse, with wine carried through the Makidan restaurant menu.
Tip: Durbach's vineyard footpaths start within walking distance, so a morning walk needs no car.
Ortenau
The Baumann family's hotel at Halbguetle 30 looks down the Durbach valley, pairing individually furnished rooms with its own restaurant and a list of Ortenau growers from the slopes around it.
The list: The house restaurant pours a list drawn from Durbach and the wider Ortenau, served indoors and on the valley terrace.
Tip: Valley-facing rooms share the restaurant terrace's view, so ask for that side when you book direct.
