This is the best place to stay if you want a clean room with a spectacular view of Tegernsee. Also included is one of the best breakfast buffets we’ve ever had in our travels to Germany. …

TL;DR lovely place, great service, highly recommended hotel in TegernseeROOM AND RECEPTIONWe stayed in a deluxe room, and it was just the perfect size. The balcony had a stunning lake view, which is why I chose this specific room anyway. Reception was lovely and very welcoming.FOOD AND AMENITIESThere are free drinks in the fridge, refilled every day.The breakfast buffet was solid, with a nice mix of options, including some Bavarian items like obatzda. Plus, they serve free cakes and coffee in the afternoon!They’ve also got a sauna and a big outdoor garden where you can just chill.HOW TO GET THEREHeads up, the hotel’s perched on a hill, hence the lovely view. If you’re coming by public transport, you'll have to hike about 1.5km (20-30mins depending on your pace). There’s a proper trail with steps, so it’s not too bad.

My family and I recently stayed at Der Westerhof. We so enjoyed our stay. The staff were very friendly, the rooms were clean, and a delicious breakfast was served every morning. We had a gorgeous view of lake Tegernsee from our room. We would definitely recommend Der Westerhof for a stay in Tegernsee.

Unfortunately one of the most uncomfortable beds I've ever layed in. The mattress was super worn down and that's something you do not expect when paying 280€ per night.The hotel itself is a little bit worn down. (dark corroidors, carpet floors, old smell).The service although was super nice and the location amazing.

We stayed early September 2020 (during the pandemic) and were made to feel very safe. The hotel had made good plans for the breakfast room to ensure everyone was protected, and kept away from each other.  …

A really nice place! The views are wonderful, staff is very friendly and the hotel management is really helpful. It was a pleasant stay but you have to come with you expectations checked. Here are a few tips to consider:1. There's no food in the hotel after around 8 pm so either have snacks with you or book to visit a restaurant in town.2. Wish I knew this sooner, there is a free shuttle to the town from the hotel. Ask about this service pre or during your visit.3. If you're arriving late via train make arrangements with a taxi service or the hotel to pick you up from the station or you will be stranded in darkness.4. The coffee machine in the breakfast area is FREE, so enjoy that!5. There's a self service bar at reception 24/7, you just note down your room number and what you've taken.Otherwise enjoy this beautiful authentic hotel and all it has to offer.
