Restaurant 5/5- The portions here are insane! I would recommend sharing plates (seriously!)…read moreeverything we ordered was great! And service was very attentive and helpful. You cannot go wrong here. Hotel 3/5 - we are staying here as well and I would say the hotel is just okay. The hallway smells a but like old cooking oil and grease. The rooms are not vented very well and even with the windows open it gets very warm. We are here in June. The rooms are clean so no complaints there.

At first there was only outside seating but they moved us in before we ordered food. They provide blankets to help keep warm. The food is in full German so you'll need Google Translate but is easy. Portions are huge and authentic.

Went here for our final family dinner before the family flew back from their vacation.

As this neighborhood is known for mosquitoes, it might be good to bring some mosquito spray with you, especially if you want to sit outside. There are several rooms inside, so they have capacity to host a lot of people. The server was friendly. It was patient with our family since not everyone spoke German in our group.

Chiemgauhof features a gourmet restaurant, late night beach bar and hotel…read more The restaurant: Especially outside in the Biergarten, the atmosphere is awesome. Underneath big trees you are invited to enjoy a panoramic view on lake Chiemsee with the alpine foothills in the background. While enjoying the fantastic view, you may want to have a look at the menu. It's quite big, so I'm sure you'll find something that fits your taste. They serve mainly bavarian food and - most importantly - fish that comes directly out of lake Chiemsee! The food I've had over the course of my many visits was always great. One important thing though: It's pricey. Actually, it's quite expensive. Maybe a little too expensive, even considering the great quality. It's nice to go there, but I would only recommend for a special occasion. You could leave quite some cash there if you spend a long evening. I will give a special recommendation to the blueberry pancakes with vanilla ice cream. They are Chiemgauhof's signature dessert dish and absolutely phenomenal. The bar: The "sundownder" Bar is an outside beach bar with many couches and some fire places. Again, the atmosphere is awesome when you're going there on a lush summer evening, sit by the fire as you watch it get dark on the lake. It's remarkable. The prices of beverages (alcoholic & non-alcoholic) still aren't exactly cheap, but definitely more reasonable than in the restaurant. Besides typical bar-beverages, they occasionally serve new, small brands of special kinds which are almost always worth a try. Because I live nearby, I haven't had the opportunity to spend some nights in a room of theirs. What I'm being told repeatedly, though, is that the rooms are quite expensive and service is actually not that great... But again, that's just what I'm told. I'll leave the hotel part to somebody who has actually stayed with them.
