Very unique hotel with a hip and modern vibe. If you do skiing or biking, you will likely find this hotel very useful because there are many amenities for sports that I have not seen in other hotels, such as gear lockers and a workbench for repairs. The hotel is clean and the basic double room was of a good size. We always travel with our dog, so we were glad that he could stay with us. Parking was easy, and available both underground and open-air. The breakfast was adequate. There was a self-service egg counter. While it is in a peaceful location, it is of walking distance to the lake. The price was also quite good for the region. Overall, I would recommend this hotel for an enjoyable and comfortable stay.

Best location!! Best breakfast!!

We had a two-night stay at this hotel. The staffs were friendly, and the room was clean. Loved the breakfast which you could choose the egg you want and cook it by yourself. We’d definitely like to stay here again if we are going to visit Königssee.

The size of the hotel is quite good and very comfortable. Simple is the best. Many storage area. We love the breakfast but bit crowded in self service area. Easy to reach the hotel even taking bus from station.

Great service, nice accommodations, and convenient location.

More like Ibis hotel which is in favor of local outside sports fan. Better to drive your own car can here you will enjoy the beautiful view and quiet suburb life. But if for casual tourists traveling with family, it’s also can be decided to choose hotel in Berchtesgadener, where is more convenient for shopping stuff.

The hotel was in an excellent location within a short walk to the Königssee lake. The hotel was super clean and offered good food for breakfast. The one negative was the location of our room. We were on the ground floor immediately next to the parking lot. We could not even have curtains open or else people could see us very well.

Nice hotel with green element and comfortable environment

My experience with this "Explorer Hotel Berchtesgaden" is very bad, I have booked two nights' hotel room at this hotel in March 2019 because by looking at the photos and info on website, it looks good. On my check-in date, as I have booked two nights but eventually only stay for one night due to my problem calculating the time difference wrongly between my home place and Germany. I tried to cancel when I know that I have over-booked one night, but the hotel rejected. The most frustrated thing is that on the day I check-in (around 7.30 pm), the receptionist insisted that I have made three rooms' booking and insisted me to pay another 3 rooms' fee. I told her many times that I have only booked once and now paying for two nights but only stay for one night. The receptionist very insisted and saying that some visitors will make this stupid mistake, I have totally have no idea why would that happen in Germany, people should be reasonable and logical. I have made the booking in March 2019 and the trip in August, what made us (a family of 3) make a booking for 3 rooms? Of course, we refused to pay another 3 rooms' fee and that receptionist has dragged us 2 hours for handling for the check-in. That night, we had not took any dinner because of the check-in problem. The most ridiculous is that when we asked for one more pillow, the receptionist replied the hotel is fully booked and no extra pillow available.

Very modern and clean

It was simple but all worked and well organised. Very clean, great breakfast. Reception staff were chatty, restaurant bar staff not.

It is a motel not a hotel. No amenities in the room even a mug/glass for teeth brushing. My room is a connection room with the other room, but haven’t locked the door between us. Only one staff serve for reception and the bar when I check in.

Had issues with checkin as I arrived after the reception closed. Was told I would receive a pin code for entrance, but I never got it. Then I spend 1 hour upon arrival to reach the hotel via different phone numbers and finally got through to a person that could give me the pin code

Staff was the best and you can't get much closer to the mountains

The room was clean and spacious enough. The wifi is good. The bathroom is clean and modern. The check in was very fast and I could get the room 1h before.

Nice and friendly front desk staff, unique room interior. Delicious breakfast.

This hotel should classified as a Motel. No room amenities

Everything was excellent and the staff were incredibly helpful. The only minor area for improvement could be the pillows as they do not provide a lot of support.

Very likely a great hotel for out doors lovers. Though new it is very rustic. Bath room amenities were very sparse. Breakfast was ok. Location was good for exploration of Koenigsee

A hotel without A/C which you have to open your window to get fresh air and let the cold air in. Bugs just keep flying in since this place surrounded by greens and mountain. It is a very very basic facility, Beautiful view. No water boiler to borrow, if you want hot water, pay 2.40 euro (as i remember) in the coffee machine to get a small cups of hot water, the stuff really didnt try to help with this matter. Breakfast area is hot with no A/C (at least I didnt feel it at all). Not enough parking space even we pay for it, we can only park on the grass.

A nice hotel for sporty folks. Nice breakfast.

This is a wonderful hotel in the Bavarian Alps close to Berchtesgaden. It is a fairly new property so everything is nice and fresh. The rooms are a little on the small side, but the bed was very comfortable, had a nice TV with plenty of international channels. The room and bathroom were very clean. Breakfast was ample and very tasty. I can definitely recommend this hotel and will stay there again when I come back to the area.

The Hotel Explorer was a nice hotel in a very scenic setting close to a lot of the great things to do in the area. The rooms were nice and the breakfasts were great. Great value for the money and geared for the active person.

The location is about 4 km out of the central area, so getting something to eat is a drive. However, as a kicking off point for outdoor activities, this is probably the best location. Breakfast buffet was good. Room was pretty good, but the balconies sort of all connect and loud next room neighbors were out on their balcony until wee hours. Unfortunately, we left an electronic device in the room; called about it and have never heard back. Some of the staff could be more friendly and helpful. Overall, thought it was a little pricey for what you get.

Very good staff hotel is clean and modern. Setup for hikers, mountain bikers etc but hotel also seemed full of older guests who like the eco angle. Only downside was no air-con and limited food choice on site, but there is a McDonalds up the road and restaurants near by if u want them. Ideal stop if u plan to see the Eagles Nest as we did. We stayed here when it first opened and the price per night was good value, it seems to be creeping up into high quality hotel price range now though. Good Wi-Fi and easy parking also

Hotel staff were helpful and friendly. A great place to stay as the hotel is a 10 min walk away from the ferry pier at Lake Konigssee. Hotel provides free bus card for guests - making it easy to explore Berchtesgaden town & Ramsau. Eagle's nest is a few minutes'drive away too. Parking space at hotel is ample and convenient. Breakfast provided by hotel is quality fresh food. A very enjoyable stay in Berchtesgaden!
