Just a short stroll from the centre, this traditional hotel enjoys superb views of the valley and the Markbachjoch mountain. Owned by Herbert Thaler, many regulars enjoy his weekly harp playing in the nearby Gasthof Bichlwirt. A large indoor pool opens out onto a lovely sun terrace at the rear of the hotel with uninterrupted mountain views.

Transfer time: approx. 1 hour 15 mins from Innsbruck airport or 2 hours 30 mins from Salzburg airport.

  • Singles have balcony and shower
  • Larger New wing Austrian twins sleep 2-3 and bath with showerhead and balcony (the additional bed is a single sofa bed) 
  • All rooms have telephone, hairdryer, radio and TV with English speaking channels.

*In certain locations, a twin is commonly accepted as referring to two separate mattresses and duvets contained in one large frame. Most hotels have rooms that will take an extra bed if required. These extra beds may be bunk beds, fold-away beds or sofa beds, but the suitability of these beds may depend on each individual. Where an extra bed is added this may limit the space available. Rooms with extra beds are still bookable for two person occupancy although, in this case, the hotelier may allocate a standard-sized twin bedded room without extra beds. Single rooms do not always match up either in size or facilities to twin bedded rooms, even when a supplement is paid.

Journey via the romantic village of Reit im Winkl to the Chiemsee, known as the “Bavarian Sea”. The Chiemsee is the largest lake in Bavaria. The biggest of several islands on the lake and accessible only by boat is Herrenchiemsee. The name derives from a sumptuous and wildly extravagant palace built by King Ludwig II of Bavaria. Marvel at the richly decorated interior and the stunning grounds all modeled on the Palace of Versailles. A fascinating insight into the world of a truly eccentric King.
