Excellent service and food. The finest dining we enjoyed during our whole trip. The breakfast is top tier also. The attached spa (pool, saunas, etc) is a huge added bonus. The staff are friendly and attentive. Conveniently located to visit the leading tourist attractions such as Neuschwanstein, Zugspitze, and so much more).

Tucked away in Bad Kohlgrub, this hotel is a hidden gem. Reasonably priced, with a ton of amenities. Typical European scheduling at the front desk (i.e. closes at 10pm and there is no night shift). The parking lot is very small (again, typical for Europe) but as we were on motorcycles we had no issues. The on-site restaurant is also very nice, and the food is well above par. Of particular note is that the breakfast in the restaurant is a mix of European-style with some Americanisms thrown in (scrambled eggs, bacon, and sausage were available), which was a pleasant surprise. The entire hotel/restaurant looks like it is kept very clean, or was recently renovated, or both. The outdoor seating area furniture all looked new, and the overall arrangement is conductive to gathering around the table with friends at the end of a long day of vacation activities.

Top class customer service
From the moment you walk into this hotel you are welcomed and treated as valued customers. The welcome from the reception staff was exceptional. The hotel exudes a calming ambiance. The interior decor is wonderfully Bavarian. We thoroughly enjoyed dining in the hotel restaurant. We did find the bedroom rather warm at nightime due to an absence of air conditioning. The spa and wellness facilities are very good. We experienced only the best from all the staff members we encountered during our stay. The customer service is outstanding at this hotel. It is definitely a hotel to which we would wish to return. Finally, the area of Bad Kohlgrub is beautiful and wonderful for hiking/cycling and well worth a visit.

Enjoy the rising Alps
Very nice staff, helpful and friendly. The room was small, but comfortable, clean and cosy. The breakfast was plentiful and food always fresh. I did not try the Spa, but I could see that it is really big, and a variety of offers. I went out hiking all the time. Views are striking and there are plenty of activities. The hotel even offers FOC rental bikes and they have an indoor pool

Did not get to take advantage of spa, deeply regret. Too short of trip. Staff, food, everything was excellent, even though it rained everyday, the gardens and view were still beautiful. Most comfortable bed we had in Germany.

Begeistert war ich vom Wellnessbereich im Untergeschoss und dem schönen Garten mit vielen kleinen Sitzgruppen. Das Frühstücksbüfett war überschaubar aber ausreichend, frisch und lecker. Das Personal im Frühstücksraums war höflich, aber leider etwas sehr distanziert und kühl. Das Personal an der Rezeption und die Zimmerfrauen sehr freundlich und entgegen kommend. Das Hotel ist schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Die meisten Zimmer wurden aber scheinbar saniert und liebevoll her gerichtet. Was allerdings sehr unangenehm auffällt, ist das in vielen Bereichen noch ein Teppichboden liegt und mache Räume dadurch stickig wirken. Ohne diesen ollen Teppichboden wäre der erste Eindruck viel positiver. Insgesamt war ich mit meinem Aufenthalt im Johannesbad aber sehr zufrieden, hatte ein schönes Zimmer, mit modernen Bad und Balkon zum Garten. Vieles war fußläufig gut zu erreichen und bei schlechtem Wetter gab es im Hotel nebst Wellnessbereich viele Möglichkeiten sich die Zeit angenehm zu vertreiben. Auch den Hol-und Bringservice, zum nächstgelegenen Bahnhof, bei der Anreise mit dem Zug, möchte ich lobenswert erwähnen. Aber aufgepasst beim Buchen, leider gibt es tatsächlich auch noch winzige Zimmer im Altbau unterm Dach, die man eher einen kleinen Pension zuordnen würde und nicht in einem 4 Sterne Hotel. Die Minibar war übrigens leer und wird nur auf Bestellung bestückt. Wenn man dann auf dem Zimmer Durst bekommt, zahlt man für einen Flasche Sprudel über 7,
