Hotels near Jöchel (1787m), Mittenwald

Clean and free water was provided. I also found my lost wallet and the counter staff was so friendly. It was a pity that it leaked a little even if it was watered by the bathtub, but it was only a sense of the bathtub. Recommended

At a rate of EUR 220+ per night, we expected a calm, well-maintained, scenic and professional hotel experience. Unfortunately, we found neither. Rooms are equipped with kitchenettes which are unlocked at an extra charge of EUR 30 (we did not opt for this). The (locked-in) old kitchenette fridge kept us awake all of our first night. Staff acknowledged the poor state of this equipment and admitted several guests had complained about this noise before us. Thankfully they turned the fridge off for our second night. But why was this on in the first place when we had not booked the kitchenette extra? We came for Alp calm - not noise of an old fridge we did not even have access to. Hotel facilities were old - all of it - all dated from when constructed (early or mid 70s?). Wall-to-wall carpets in room. Our roomed smelled of old cigarette smoke. We were tempted by beautiful looking photos of the hotel where balconies had unspoiled views of the Alps. Unfortunately our room was dark and had no view whatsoever - expect for a few trees and a railway track that had trains spoiling the tranquility we came for. Website photos for not live up to expectations! Waiters repeatedly did not take our requests seriously, whether we asked for frites to be replaced by potatoes, chicken to be added to our the vegetarian dish (waiter shrugged this request off, before eventually accepting for an extra charge), or forgetting to prop up our breakfast table (no butter on day one, no yoghurt on day two - all paid for). English skills also questionable. Aargh - for this price we expected so much more - this was unfortunately a disappointing stay for us. This is a pity because the hotel location is good and the place has some good potential if owners would only pay to maintain the place.

We were so happy to be back here finally! We come here and stay every year at our favorite Ettal hotel. Covid 19 derailed last years trip, so finally getting back was a piece of heaven! It's like coming home! It was so good to see all the familiar faces, in housekeeping, Jens at the front desk, Melanie and everyone in the dining room, like coming back to family! We have our favorite room overlooking the Kloster, {thank you SO much, Jens, and I love to hear the bells chiming. There are also rooms that overlook the glorious countryside. The staff is amazing, everyone from the front desk check in, the housekeepers, and house keeping, the rooms are spotless. Breakfast is always, fresh and with something for everyone. You will hot go away hungry here! We love their scrambled and fried eggs! and everything else is perfect too much to name it all. The dining staff is so friendly and welcoming, as is everyone at this hotel. The hotel is a mile drive from Oberammergau, and Garmisch and Mittenwald are with in a 30 to 40 minute drive. There is SO much beauty in this area of Bavaria, our favorite place on the planet! We stayed 6 nights this time, and next year we may stay longer. We really did not want to leave, it was so nice to escape the goings on at home, and be in a peaceful place, Bavaria . If you stay here you will not be disappointed .

We found this hotel simply by searching „best hotel with SPA in the Alps“ and it showed up in multiple rankings. For a long weekend it seemed perfect, and almost perfect it was: Professional, warm, welcoming staff all along. Every single interaction, from the check-in to the restaurant, the bar, everywhere, we could experience authentic, nice and hospital staff. That part could not be better. And the meals…to die for. Amazing breakfast buffets, great snack mid afternoon, and the the 5-course dinner have set new benchmarks in my book. We loved the gym and the SPA. The pool is not huge, yet there is plenty of space, and the saunas and steambaths are in excellent shape. The whole hotel and everything around it feels new, modern, clean, yet with that Austrian/Alpine touch. The room have a decent size, all come with a balcony from which one can admire the beautiful surroundings. So, where is the „issue“? The hotel is just next to a quite busy road with fast traffic. Somehow the experience could have been totally perfect if one could sleep with open windows (it was warm) or if laying on a sunset in the garden it would be „mountain quiet“. But it was not, you clearly hear the traffic all the time. Without this acoustics disturbance this hotel, its staff, its service offering, its infrastructure, would deserve top votes in every regards. May be there is a way to build sound barriers like in many other places, and hide them behind bushes or small trees?

Bayerische Gemütlichkeit stellt man sich anders vor. Beim Frühstück schrie das Personal obszön herum und verbreitete eine sehr unangenehme schlechte Stimmung. Fragen, die für einen Hotelbetrieb selbstverständlich sein sollten, werden aggressiv abgewiesen und nur mit äußerster Umständlichkeit und Widerwilligkeit weiter bearbeitet, inklusive die Bitte nach einer Rechnung. ”Was soll ich machen, der Chef ist nicht da und ich hab hier keinen Drucker”. Den Zimmern fehlt jegliche Ausstattung, die für das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis angemessen wären (etwa Seife oder Rauchmelder). Beim Frühstücksbuffet konnte man sich mit bereits benutzten Tellern bedienen (die Krümel waren darauf noch zu sehen). Auf dem Gang riecht es unhygienisch und es liegen rechtsradikale Zeitschriften aus. Insofern kann ich nur bestätigen, was hier bisher geschrieben wurde. Nie wieder - der Titel ”zum Rassen” deutet leider nicht auf ein Traditionslokal hin, sondern ist Programm.
