Hotel Müller Hohenschwangau

Hotel Müller Hohenschwangau

10/10 Excellent
"I knew what I was buying after reading reviews. The hotel is right in the center of the tourist area and very convenient to all sites. Neat old hotel but modernized and usually ok with no ac. However some of the hottest days This week mid upper eighties so a bit warm at night but I didn’t mind. Quite nights a plus after a busy tourist days. Wonderful staff, great location and breakfast great. I would stay again."

Hotel Rheinischer Hof

8/10 Good
"We had a very pleasant stay at this property. The hotel was clean and well-maintained, and the breakfast was excellent fresh, varied, and a great way to start the day. The location is a major highlight: it’s only about 15 minutes by car to Eibsee and Zugspitze, and just 5 minutes to the city center. You can also enjoy a comfortable 15-minute walk into town, and there’s a convenient bus stop right in front of the property. The room itself offered an amazing view, which really added to the overall experience. The staff were friendly and welcoming throughout our stay. There are a couple of minor downsides. The pillows were not very comfortable, and the bed was made up of two single beds pushed together rather than a true queen or king. The shower is also on the smaller side, though it’s manageable and the water pressure is good. Overall, a great stay with a few small areas for improvement."
