A little rustic, but this is traditional bavarian-hütte style hotel. Close to everything, restaurants & train platform as well as the Kochelsee are in walking proximity. Rooms are clean & bed comfortable, breakfast was also containing all the basics. Only comment is, that price-wise could be cheaper.

Good location, great breakfast. For me the extreme donwgrade was the bed. It was extremely soft and hence quickly made an alpine relief under my body.

We very much enjoyed staying two nights. Super friendly staff and superb breakfast. |Very nice rooms and good location. |Would like to return and only downside was a slightly high price. For all I know, this might be the price in this area and if so, five stars.

I was in town for work and put up at the Hotel. The room was clean and comfortable, and the location right in the center of the small town was perfect - accessible to bike paths, the nearby lake, and restaurants. …
