Landgasthof Sonne

What Landgasthof Sonne does

Landgasthof Sonne is a family-operated traditional German inn (Landgasthof) located at Dorfstraße 7 in Stötten am Auerberg, in the Allgäu region of Bavaria. The establishment is run by proprietor Elmar Vogler and a team of six, and offers four integrated hospitality lines: a traditional restaurant and Gaststube serving German regional cuisine with a daily rotating lunch menu (Mittagstisch); a seasonal beer garden; two banquet venues — the traditional Allgäuer Stuben function rooms and the larger Festsaal festival hall — used for weddings, birthdays, family celebrations, and corporate events; and a small number of single and double guest rooms for overnight stays. The venue positions itself on approximately 150 years of heritage in the Allgäuer Stuben design, fresh regional cooking, and full-service event hosting in a rural Bavarian setting.

The business sells exclusively direct-to-consumer at the physical site, taking reservations and event inquiries through its website (landgasthofsonne.de) and by telephone. Online channels include a Tischreservierung (table reservation) form, an Angebotsanfrage (event quote request) form, and a Speisekarte "to go" (take-out) menu with prices ranging from €4.00 to €22.20. Technology is intentionally light: a content-managed website, basic contact and inquiry forms, and a Bing Maps integration for directions; there is no mobile app, no social media presence, no paid digital marketing, and no disclosed API or integration ecosystem. The business is registered as a sole proprietorship under Elmar Vogler (VAT ID DE 198604373) and is a member of DEHOGA, the German Hotel and Restaurant Association. Operating hours are constrained by Monday and Tuesday closures and by current personnel shortages that have already caused short-notice changes to published hours.
