We spent a long weekend in the renovated Unterberg holiday apartment. Mrs. Graßl and the two farm dogs gave us a very warm welcome and we felt completely at home. The location is perfect on the hillside overlooking the mountains and it's a dream to wake up in the morning with a view of the horse paddocks. Inns and hiking trails are not far. For more demanding hikers we can recommend the climb to the Blaueishütte. We recommend the accommodation to anyone who would like to spend a holiday in Berchtesgaden.

I can't say anything about the accommodation - unfortunately - because we (5 people) would of course have liked to spend our extended and booked weekend there and celebrate our friends' silver wedding anniversary. But with a weather forecast of 50 liters of rain per square meter and 2 - 6° C, even traveling there could have been risky. We now pay 90% cancellation costs. Yes, that was agreed in the terms and conditions. But wouldn't it have made sense to show goodwill and offer us an alternative travel date!? That didn't have to be during the peak travel season, when the accommodation is fully booked anyway, but in a low season. The landlords would have received their money ONCE, but would have gained five satisfied guests who would perhaps have visited the accommodation again and recommended it to others. Thank God we've experienced this with other landlords.The landlady offered our friend to list the apartments on booking.com; if they were rented out, we wouldn't have to pay any cancellation fees. What was strange was that of the three apartments only one was visible on booking.com.We don't want to be bothered any further and will of course pay the fees.We just think it's a real shame because the contact so far has actually been very nice and friendly.

This is our second time there, the view and the location are fantastic. There are newly renovated holiday apartments on the lower floor. Above, still in unrenovated but well-maintained condition. The landlady is super nice and is a great contact person. Beautiful here and best location!!!

We had a very good time in our accommodation, which we found through Booking. The Untersberg holiday apartment including the kitchen was recently renovated and is also spacious and modernly equipped.The kitchen has basic equipment, but there were also a few things that you might not want (casserole dish, second pan, mixer or hand blender).There is also a new sauna downstairs and we really enjoyed using it.From the balcony you have a wonderful view of the surrounding mountains. Outside there are horses, chickens and two dogs. Unfortunately, one of them didn't like us, but was kindly kept on a leash for the duration of our stay, so we didn't have to worry.We also thought it was great that there was a fridge with drinks as well as fresh eggs and homemade jam, where you could help yourself at any time using the trust fund.Since we arrived without a car, we were dependent on the bus, which unfortunately didn't run often and the last one left the main station shortly after 7 p.m.I can absolutely recommend the accommodation to anyone who doesn't mind the somewhat remote location.
