A Special Place

We totally lucked in with finding the Klosterhotel. The hotel is traditional and beautiful in every way, and very reasonably priced for the location. The restaurant and breakfast were excellent. The kloster complex across the street was a special treat. Our only regret was that we didn’t book for a longer stay.

Fantastic overnight getaway

Delightful charming hotel with very sweet staff. We had a room for three people and it was very spacious and had all the amenities. Nice robe and bath towel for the pool and spa. The hotel is in fantastic condition so I’m wondering if it was nearly updated. The breakfast in the morning was very good and included. The grounds are wonderful and it’s close to nice little shops.

Had an interesting experience in the hotel restaurant. My soup was forgotten, but still appeared on the bill. After dessert, I pointed this out. They brought the soup instead of removing from bill. Have never had to eat soup after dessert before. Know there was a language barrier but service at the restaurant for dinner had many mistakes, not just at our table. Have never experienced this in any restaurant ever in being served soup after dessert and having to eat it. Dinner food was also the most mediocre food I had in my whole Bavaria trip. However breakfast was good! The food at breakfast was delicious and tasty. The room we stayed in was big, but a bit old and could do with an update. The bed was comfortable. The air quality in room was poor but fixed by opening the windows for a bit. The bathroom was big and lovely with a huge bath and hot water. Not a perfect stay but Ok. Just some things to improve on next time.

Beautiful authentic hotel with modern touch. The hallways are filled with antiques and interesting pictures/portraits. We arrived late but still got very warm welcome by an elderly gentleman at the reception. The suite is lovely and with a nice view of the mountains. Breakfast is also satisfying, with enough variety to start the day. The hotel is very close to Kloster Ettal, it’s definitely worth a visit. Highly recommended!

Joli mais un peu triste

Ambiance un brin monastique forcément dans cet hôtel lié au monastère local. Les chambres sont bien équipées mais un peu tristes. Le petit déjeuner est correct sans plus. Pratique pour visiter ke château de Linderhof.

5-Star Stay!

Wonderful monastery hotel, beautifully nestled in the Bavarian Alps. The front desk staff were super welcoming—kind, caring, and helpful. Our room was clean, cozy, and quiet. If you're looking for a hotel with charm, character, and intimacy, I highly recommend!

Large hotel, we got spacious rooms. The hotel is a bit old but beautiful. Big free parking available. Breakfast is a standard European style. Room cleanliness is decent, and towels are replaced properly. The bar in the lobby is very small and I didn’t really like it. In one of the rooms, there was a clogged shower that caused flooding, and it was only fixed the next day, which was quite unpleasant.
