Rewelacyjne położenie bardzo blisko jeziora, wyposażenie hotelu na wysokim poziomie, dźwiękoszczelny pokój, bardzo blisko szlaków turystycznych, bardzo duży parking (płatne osobno) wspaniały widok z okna.
Brak czytelnej i jednoznacznej informacji na temat płatności za parking nie były to jakieś bardzo wysokie kwoty (11 €) bo całodzienne parkowanie w Gdyni kosztuje więcej.

自然豊かで景色もよくケンニッヒゼーも徒歩圏内
エコを意識した施設でその目的の反映した施設・運営をしていることが施設案内からは読み取れなかった。予め読み取れていたら、事前準備もできより楽しめたと思います。

Friendly staff, we were allowed to check in a little earlier than check-in time, and the room is very clean, enough to sleep after a tiring day. Breakfast items have very good variety. Room with tiny balcony, we are lucky enough to face the mountains with beautiful view to enjoy early morning. With a nice cuppa would be perfect, unfortunately it is not available like other hotels.
There are no glasses for brush tooth or cups to make tea or coffee in the evening, bed is not thick enough, it's ok for a couple days stay, view is irreplaceable.

The area was beautiful and the hotel itself was quite clean.
Breakfast options were poor, only one alt milk available, just soy. Not much else in terms of vegan options, basically just fruit and granola. There was no shower gel or shampoo, not a massive deal but it's good to know in advance. Unfortunately the staff weren't great, pretty unwelcoming in general. We arrived a little early to make sure we had time to get to a tour and asked for either early check-in or to use the luggage room. Early check-in is €50 per person which is fine but they were quite confused and seemingly inconvenienced when we asked for luggage storage instead. At other points during our stay staff again seemed inconvenienced when I asked for fresh towels despite the service being advertised on signs throughout the halls.

Room is spacious and comfortable. Location is good within walking or drive to nearby attraction and restaurant. We like the breakfast. Cook our own eggs. Food there also reasonable pricing.
2 of the rooms that we booked has some water flow issues at bath area. Water flow out very slow. One of the room encountered encountered waste water flow backwards to the bath area.

The breakfast is awesome you can cook eggs and bacons yourself, and the manager is kind, nice, and awesome. Great guy, great hotel to stay
6.0
The location is great, especially for people who do not own a car. There are a lot of hotels and Airbnbs in the area, but there are few that in such good distance to the main hiking trails. Each room also has a little roofed balcony, which I think was a great touch.
The facilities are nothing to write home about. The hotel itself is on the shabbier side, and I was not a fan of the decoration (rather aggressive with the bright green and purple.) The beds were fine but nothing exceptional. They were on the firmer side, which I am fine with but others might not be.
8.0
Clean, big room with practical layout, lots of storage, balcony, bright functional bathroom.
Only one washer and dryer, considering many guests did sport activities. Spa area small for such a big hotel.
7.0
The location of the hotel is good: not far from center, surrounded by mountains. Breakfast was very good. Was also possible to cook eggs. There was a sauna that was almost empty, which was nice. WiFi worked properly. The design of the hotel is modern, which is fine, although I find a bit weird to look at the photo of the guy on the ceiling.
In general everything is expensive. You need to pay for the towels for the sauna, also for the tea and coffee. There is no kettle in the room, so own tea is not possible to make. There was no shower gel in the sauna. The balcony is too narrow with a bench and no separation from the neighbour balcony. So, not practical. It seems it's usage is just for smoking.

Beautiful surroundings with mountains. Best reception explanation I get on tourist information from Moriz! Thank you
There are very few buses running to this hotel, so if you rely on public transport, plan ahead.

It was an outstanding breakfast buffet which met everyone's needs. Location near Konigsee was great.
Check-in took over 30 minutes and demanded our passports--WHY?
4.0
Location is close to great MTB tours
They gave us the wrong code number at late arrival. We stood in front of a locked entrance door at 2 am.
They balcony is for very short people. We bumped the head several times.
We returned with completely wet mountain bike shoes. Our polite question if they have any possibility to get shoes somewhere dry remained without solution. Ok, we did the tour on our last day with wet shoes. It was beautiful anyway because Berchtesgadener National Park is stunning beautiful.

Nice location, friendly staff, very clean.
We didn't think much of the room: there is no fridge, no kettle; the shower is poorly designed and lacking ventilation.

clean, good location only a short drive to Königssee
the cleaning staff almost lost my pet. i checked beforehand with the hotel if a cat is allowed and they answered me yes it’s welcomed. we extended the checkout so that we can go hike without bringing my cat in a carrier and so it can use the litter whenever, but when I came back to the hotel, all I found was a cleaned room where all of my stuff including the litter box, carrier, harness were gone. we got extremely lucky that our cat hid during the cleaning instead of running away. when confronted with the staff, front desk was terrified by the mistake but the cleaning staff responsible was joking and laughing. she even said oh I was wondering if there’s cat since there’s a fresh litter box in here, that’s funny. it is not funny.
