"Hotel Tonihof is a beautiful, charming, classical Bavarian hotel. The view are stunning. The staff couldn't be more helpful, our room was well equipped and traditional. It's the antithesis of a modern chain hotel, we stayed in 9 hotels in two weeks in Germany and Poland and Tonihof was by far the most memorable."
"The hotel welcomed us after a same-day reservation due to an issue with another hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful. The apple strudel and breakfast were delicious. It was raining, but if the weather had cleared, our view would have been wonderful! Hope to return! "
"This is an authentic Austrian guesthouse with so much character and charm. We loved everything about it!! The staff were wonderful and even accommodated my brothers gluten free dietary requirements. Don’t hesitate to book this amazing place surrounded by the Alpes and meadows covered in wildflowers. It’s only a short drive to Mittenwald . We had half board and enjoyed a wonderful breakfast and excellent dinner. I give it 10/10"
"Friendly and helpful staff at the hotel, rooms well equipped, clean and tidy. Each room has a balcony, although not all overlook the lake. Excellent restaurant in the hotel, highly recommended.
The roof top bar gives wonderful views of Tegernsee and surrounding area, definitely worth a visit. They also have the local beer on tap, and a good selection of other drinks, spirits and cocktails.
Breakfast at the hotel while good is a little pricey if you pay as you go, so if you want breakfast maybe pre-boiling is best, but otherwise zero complaints.
We learned also that visiting tourists can get free local bus travel, more info is available from the hotel reception staff and Tegernsee tourist information.
Local taxi's can be quite expensive and airport transfers can be challenging. Uber is available in Munich and at the airport but not locally in Tegernsee, so hiring a car or using the train network are good alternatives. After all the hotel is on Bahnhofstraße (station road) and is only around 200m away.
In summary, I would not hesitate to recommend the Caro & Selig, our experience was excellent."
Familienparadies Sporthotel Achensee - All Inclusive
6/10 Okay
"Some really good parts: kids club, pool, ski school, horse rides for kids. All great.
But two big downsides. Firstly, it seemed like they were trying to squeeze every penny out of us, like a budget airline would. The all-inclusive was not really - you had to pay for coffees at lunchtime for instance - and staff would come over and try to upsell. Same with alcohol: all had to be paid for as extra, and staff were trying to flog it as soon as we sat down. It makes the place feel a bit cheap and money-grabbing.
It was so odd for these things to not be included in all-inclusive. Very different to other all-inclusive places I’ve been in the past.
Then one other thing: it’s the first place I’ve stayed since at least the pandemic that didn’t have a smart-TV. Most people are there with their kids, so have to stay in the room from relatively early each evening, so the very old-fashioned TVs are not ideal - this would be such an easy thing to upgrade.
Also, there were some really odd design things. There is a baby monitor system, but it attaches to the phone line, and the phone socket is in the adults’ room not the kids’ room. So weird.
And if we had wanted to watch TV, it was mounted on the wall of the children’s room. Such a bizarre place to put it as it’s going to wake light-sleeping kids up. Literally anywhere else in the room would have been better.
So yeah. Some really good bits, but I don’t think I would recommend to friends as the above downsides took the polish off. "
