Our hotel
Welcome to the Rügenschmiede vis-à-vis Hiddensee, where each stay becomes a cherished memory and every moment tells its own story. Our passion for nature, genuine hospitality, and unique experiences shapes each day – transforming our establishment into a place of tranquillity, authenticity, and unforgettable moments.
Our Story – A Place Where Memories Are Made
It all starts with an idea: to create a place where tranquillity and nature are at the forefront. A retreat where you arrive and immediately feel – here I can breathe deeply. From this idea arose the Rügenschmiede vis à vis Hiddensee, a boutique hotel that uniquely combines tradition and modernity, simplicity and comfort, nature and hospitality.
Our establishment is located where the Baltic Sea shows its tranquil side – on the island of Rügen, directly opposite the car-free island of Hiddensee. Formerly a site of craftsmanship, the 'Schmiede' is now a place of well-being. We have made it our mission to create a space here that feels not like a hotel, but like a second home.
Our passion is evident in every detail: in the lovingly furnished rooms, the smell of a fresh breakfast in the morning, and the warmth of our team. And because every guest has different desires, we focus on individuality – whether it's a cosy double room, a spacious family suite, or a thatched holiday home.
Our goal is not just to offer you a stay, but to create memories: of sunsets by the water, walks with views of Hiddensee, moments of peace and arriving.
Welcome to Rügenschmiede vis à vis Hiddensee – a place where every journey becomes a story you'd love to continue writing.
