We loved staying at this hotel and wished we could have stayed longer than two nights. When we…read morearrived at our room there were robes (to include a cute robe for a child) along with slippers to wear to their spa services and/or pool/hot tub. I thought it was a nice touch. We also had free sparkling water. We had a king bed and sofa sleeper. While the bed was comfortable, the sofa sleeper was not. If you have a third person see if there are any other options available. This was the only downside to our stay. The bathroom was separated into two areas- a room with the toilet and the other with the shower/tub. We had a small balcony with views of the Bavarian Alps. It was at the front of the hotel. Now onto what we loved the most: There was an indoor pool on the top floor. It wasn't warm but it wasn't cold. We had it completely to ourselves on both days. It also has great views. Note: On one end of the pool is a button where you can turn on the jets for a lap pool option. Our favorite though was the huge outdoor rooftop hot tub. This is where you really want to go. One evening there was 7 of us in there with plenty of space left. The views of the mountains from this hot tub were probably some of the best views I've ever had. We had the hot tub to ourselves one evening. I question if half the guests knew about the pool and hot tub as apparently the hotel was fully booked but it was a ghost town up there. I will say it is tricky to find. The elevator does not take you directly to it, rather you have to take the stairs and enter through the spa services area. Within walking distance are several restaurants, a convenience store and grocery store. Make note that everything in this area pretty much shuts down at 6 p.m. The only thing that is open past that time is an ice cream shop. I would absolutely return to this hotel in the future. I would try for a week's stay if possible as there is so much to do in the area.

Absolutely flawless hotel experience. Beautifully decorated, fantastic food, quiet and comfortable…read more Excellent location in the middle of Berchtesgaden. Very friendly, multilingual staff will take care of every need you have. Highly recommend.

We did eat outside on their patio overlooking the Königssee Lake and the food was incredible! Definitely American inspired. Probably the best meal we've had in Germany so far. I had the char grilled fillet and my husband had the rump steak with fried onions and fried potatoes. My fish scared me when it came out but it was very delicious and cooked perfectly!

The Mr and I recently spent 5 nights at Hotel Bavaria in the Kehlstein room. There was lots to love…read moreabout our room and this hotel. I'll start with the room. It was clean, spacious, & comfortable. We loved our little balcony. The staff was super friendly and helpful. There were many breakfast options including savory and sweet items, a fabulous coffee machine, & a large bright breakfast room to enjoy it all in. I loved the fact they did a whole basket of laundry for €10.00! After two weeks of traveling and one trip to a laundromat in Munich, this was a huge treat! The only con we had was parking was somewhat of an issue and the WiFi was sketchy at times. However, neither issue would keep us from staying here again!

My wife and I had a wonderful two-day stay here. The first night we got checked in and we were…read morepleased to discover the hotel is a short walk from the main railway station. Later we walked up the hill to a great little village area for some delicious food. The next morning we stayed most of the day inside due to heavy rains. The staff recommended we try their spa at the hotel. We had the entire spa to ourselves, which included a hot tub, steam room and dry sauna, all no extra cost! The breakfast is top-notch, including pretty much anything you can think of to eat: eggs, meats, breads etc.and was included. The staff couldn't have been better. This place is a must!!!

Stayed at the Alpenhof for a few nights in August on our honeymoon. The accommodations were…read morefantastic. Staff were very friendly and excited to make our honeymoon feel special! The included breakfast lunch and dinner were always delicious, and overall the stay was very affordable considering food, lodging, and access to the pool were all included. We also got full body massages during our stay which were excellent. The location is accessible only really by car, but as long as you have a car it is not far from Berchtesgaden or the Königssee. Would recommend and I hope to return someday!

Surprised to see so few Yelp reviews since this is the #1-rated hotel in Berchtesgaden on…read moreTripadvisor. A beautiful hotel that is privately owned and does an excellent job with customer service. I wouldn't say that the hotel is "luxurious" in the fancy sense of the word --- but it is spotlessly clean, charming and beautifully located in the mountains just above the town of Berchtesgaden (an amazing place in itself - check out the stunning Nazi history of the area). The prices here are not cheap, but you are paying for the view and food - most of the room packages come with food. The breakfast is wonderful -- seriously, in Germany do any of the hotels serve bad breakfasts? -- being a wonderful assortment of cheeses, smoked salmon, cold cuts, croissants, breads, pastries, eggs, bacon, different sausages etc.. Make sure to check out this place for dinner as well. Even though it's a little cliched, this was the place that I FELL IN LOVE with Käsespätzle. Luscious bitter-ish Emmantaler cheese, crunchy onions and chewy egg noodles. It was really good. The meal plan includes a table reserved Just for You (!) for every meal, wonderful service, and a lovely multi-course selection. Highly recommend. Stayed here for our anniversary and thoroughly enjoyed!

This is a new hotel (as of March 2015) in Berchtesgaden Land and the first of the small chain of…read moreAustrian-based outdoor-sports hotels to land in Germany. The hotel is located at the base of Grünstein Mountain and within easy walking distance of ski and hiking trails and the boats that ply the Königssee. The rooms are bright and modern, accented with aged barn-board. Common to many European hotels, the beds in a double room are two single beds pushed together. Also common for Germany, no soap or shampoo. There are enormous 3-D murals in the lobby that help you plan either your winter or summer excursions, and also an English-speaking and friendly staff. There is an after-activity bar open from 16:00 that also serves light lunch-style meals that worked well for us after heavy lunches of German sausages. Also a spa with various kinds of hot rooms. While it sells itself to the 30-something crowd, I would say that during our stay in early May that there were as many retirees as there were the target group. Generous and varied breakfast is included. The fastest free WiFi I have ever encountered. This hotel is a great place to stay and eat, in the nicest part of Germany that I have encountered. Worth the visit - a 3.5 hour train ride from Munich.

A nice and cheap hotel with decent rooms (a lot of storage space and hooks for sports gear). It's a…read morefive minute walk to the Koenigssee and there is plenty of restaurants around. The hotel is especially nice for younger people. The only negative point is that you have to make your own breakfast (scrambled eggs) which I think is not ideal. It wouldn't be a lot more expensive for the hotel if there was an additional chef. Overall, I can recommend this hotel though.
