12. Pilgrim Haus, Germany
Since 1304
This hotel, next on our list of oldest hotels in the world that still exist was built under the patronage of the Monastery of Paradise in Soest, and dedicated to Saint Jacob, and hence visited mostly by Jakobspilgern (pilgrims who were visiting the shrine of st. James in Santiago de Compostela in Galicia, Spain). It had a distillery and brewery famous for their beer Hanse-Stube.
