Weis Stue

We loved this place! As advertised, it’s several hundred years old, located in a city that is much older than that, across the street from a church founded around the year 800. Ribe is really marvelous, and the Weis Stue is a unique and ideally located spot to explore it. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The food is delicious. If you love history and want to feel a part of it, we highly recommend it.

A lovely historic place to stay

Love the city! It was nice to stay at a place reflecting the style of the town. TV was not working though but the 2 main staffs were great and suave.

Central location, friendly staff, good beer garden. Old quaint pub accommodation good value for money.

The 1704 Weis Stu is a historic inn on the main square in Ribe. It is a halftimbered inn with restaurant on the ground floor and rooms on the 1st floor. Nothing like waking up to the cathedral bells tolling at 8 am each morning.

Very unique experience for us to stay in such a little inn of 424-year-old

Stair were very steep. Hard to handle luggage up and down. Had to go down stairs steep stairs to bathroom.

It is a very lovely listed building, but staying here comes at a price as there is only one shower to share between all the rooms. There are other toilets fortunately in the building. The rooms are nice, clean, the bed was fine, large and comfortable - the main problem is as there is little to no insulation it can be noisy and we were woken by banging doors etc through the night. If you're a heavy sleeper it's fine - otherwise make sure you drink plenty of ale before you hit the sack! It's cheaper than other places nearby and worth a night but I wouldn't recommend more than one purely due to the inconvenience of the single shower for all the guests and noisiness. Also you can't see anything at night the bulbs are about 3 lumens which is less than a dying firefly so dont. Expect to read anything without going blind - I'm not sure if this is to give the feel of medieval sleeping arrangements or whether they simply don't want you to see anything! The staff were nice but the food was definitely overpriced and for me disappointingly mediocre, actually I ordered ribs and they were one of the worst I've had - very tough and dry I wouldn't eat there. All in all it's an experience, nice for a night but no more and the food is definitely nothing to go there for.

I wanted something old and unique and right in the heart of everything. We got exactly that. The only reason I gave it a 3 for condition is because some things are falling apart and the beds are not comfortable. I did really still like it though.

We love this type of accommodation—a lovely environment. Wonderful atmosphere. Simply cosy.

Charming and simple. The shared bathroom (between 8 rooms) is a challenge but was quite fun in a querky way. Location is brilliant and puts you right at the historic centre of a wonderful heritage site.

This is an old building. As such it has a lot of charm. The bed was soft & my room nicely decorated. I loved it, but the floors are crooked & the stairs steep, so it's not a good pick if you have mobility issues.

Chance to stay in a rare piece of history. Forget about all the usual hotel parafanalia, you are staying in a medieval hotel, how do you compare that to anything from today. You are getting the chance to experience what a hotel may have been like back in the 1600's.

It was amazing staying in such an old beautiful place. We loved everything about it.

Great stay , friendly staff , fantastic location and living in history. Loved the quirkiness of a 400 year oldbuilding.

Weis Stue is a stunning inn - rustic and quirky, rich with local history, and the staff were lovely and perfectly hospitable. We ate in the restaurant two of our three nights there and each dish was delicious, with tasty beers from the local brewery. Each dining area was different with its own story, and absolutely loved the old stairwell and antique decor. The old town location was fantastic for walking to any site of interest. Our visit to Ribe was one of our top - if not the top - highlights of our European holiday. Fingers crossed we can stay again one day!!

An authentic experience

Understood it is an old property but it doesn’t have nearly the basic. It does feel like living in a poor medieval age family though. Location is great though.

This is a VERY old hotel. Getting to the room is crawling up steep stair. No water or restroom in room - all are in the hallway. For sure an experience but maybe more for adventures. No parking onsite.

This was a cute inn with a restaurant on the ground floor. The building itself was cute but not very comfortable. The stairs to get to the guest rooms were so steep it almost felt like a ladder. The floors were uneven and the room that I stayed in was on a slant so I felt like I was going to fall out of the bed all night. The guests above me sounded like they were going to fall through my cieling whenever they walked around. The building really doesn't feel stable.
