Beautiful Lobby but uncomfortable sleep
The highlight of our 3 day stay was the super courteous service of the bellboy. The lobby terrace area is beautiful, but when your sleep is jeopardized that doesn't matter. The double bed is made of two twin matteresses that have toppers. The toppers kept sliding off the mattress and the the mattress kept slipping off the bed. Also, even with the slightest movement, the headboard would bang against the wall as it is not attached but stands loose and unstable. The slipping of the toppers kept causing the glass tops of the night tables to slide off, making you constantly cautious that anything else on it wouldn't fall off. On top off all of this, a lot of water would accumulate on the window counters in the room and the bathroom, causing our toiletry bags to become wet and there was even water build up on the back wall of the bedroom facing the parking lot. We were in rm 329. We were originally offered rm 103 but that shower stall was tiny and old. This hotel has a lot of potential but a lot more attention needs to be placed on the quality of the sleep in the rooms.

Garmish-Partenkirchen
We asked for a room facing the city on the top floor and we got it! Great view of Garmish. Big bathroom. Window over the shower/bath which could open and look out over the city while in the shower. Be sure to check out the breakfast, it was amazing: tea bar, salmon, eggs, breads, jams, so good. The hotel is not downtown, we had to drive into town for dinner.

NO AIR CONDITIONER IN ROOM
Well first of, there is no air conditions in any rooms. Horrible stay. When temps reach 40 it is very hard to breath and sleep in this hotel. To make matters worse, cannot leave windows open at night because fruit fly's, buts, spiders invested the room. Had to move out into another room at midnight. Then there were no amentie's in the rookm, such as coffee, coffee pot, tea, milk, sugar. Nothing. Very basic for the cost. Went down for a meal and paid 48 euro's for buffet. Terrible. Cooked the food before 6 and it was still sitting there after 8 pm. Same case with the breakfast. Cooked it before 6 am and it sit s there til closing.

Alps Trip Made Easy
Great location near US military facilities for US forces, and overall amazing location near Austrian border and Zugspitze. Breakfast and in-house bar are exceptional. Renovated rooms are spacious and adequately clean…. four stars earned indeed. Intend to use again when returning for skiing in the area next winter.

Excellent stay
Everything here was excellent! It's about a 10 min drive to the ski lift and only a short walk to lots of shopping and dining options. Excellent bartender and very diverse selection of drinks. We didn't eat at the restaurant but it was always busy and the menu looked delicious as well the late night bar menu. The room is also above average size and the bathroom was more than big enough. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely return!

Great Deal on a grand, but somewhat dated, hotel
This hotel was a real gem for the price. Large, clean room. Great breakfast. Decent location on the edge of town (15-minute walk to downtown) and a more comfortable than average bed. We would definitely book again despite it being somewhat beyond its glory/glamour days.

Lovely views
A huge and a really great hotel that is sadly located too far from the town center. A free bus comes once an hour, so I took it only once and walked for 30 minutes all other times. Not the end of the world, but it's a bit far. Otherwise - it's charming! Lovely, spacious rooms with big terraces and absolutely spectacular views! Woke up early just to see the sun rise over the mountains. Very good breakfast, excellent facilities, very friendly and helpful staff, big outdoor parking, very good WiFi and satellite TV - if the walking distance doesn't scare you - look for no other.

The Hotel exceeded expectations on all counts!
I can't lavish enough praise on the hotel facilites and staff! The room we received exceeded our expectations. It was large, clean and had a terrific view of the town and Zugspitze mountain. The sun poured in through the windows and provided a wonderful setting for our stay. For the holidays, trees were beautifully decorated in various meeting and dining rooms. Holiday music played softly in the background. A real wood burning fireplace near the dining rooms was a great feature. The entire hotel staff fron the front desk to servers were courteous and attentive. The breakfast was well above the expected normal fare.

Beautiful facade, but the interior could be better
The hotel is not within walking distance to the center of Garmish, which is not a huge problem. The evening front desk clerk was not very friendly or helpful when we asked questions. We had 2 rooms, one of which was dusty and didn't give the overall appearance if being very clean. However the rooms were large as well as the bathrooms. The amenities were adequate but did not go above and beyond.

Wonderful Hotel in Garmisch
This is an older style hotel on the ourskirts of Garmisch, located on a slope with great view. Easy to find too. It has an old world charm, nice restaurant, cozy bar. Sadly the pool and sauna were out of order during our brief stay, but really did not detract from our enjoyment. Meals can be enjoyed on lovely terraces with bright flowers.
