Obermühle Alpin Spa Resort

I had a great stay at this hotel, and the best part was that the room had proper air conditioning – a rare and much-appreciated feature in this region. The rooms were comfortable, clean, and nicely furnished. I opted for the half-board option: the breakfast buffet was very good with a wide variety of options, while the lunch buffet was average in comparison. The spa and wellness facilities were impressive – clean, well-maintained, and truly relaxing. The hotel is also very family-friendly, offering amenities like a small cinema room, billiards, PlayStation area, and more, making it a great choice for guests traveling with kids or teens. From my experience staying in Garmisch, this hotel stands out as one of the best in terms of overall facilities. Most of the staff were friendly, helpful, and made the stay even more pleasant. Highly recommended, especially for families or travelers looking for comfort and amenities.

Beautiful 4-star hotel with a family atmosphere. Very extensive and excellent breakfast, as well as dinner. Lovely wellness area. Special thanks to the owner for personally picking me up after my climb of the Alpspitze (the last shuttle had just left). If I have to make one remark: there is only one booking option, which is full board. Since we were out hiking all day, we didn’t make use of the lunch. I asked if we could get a picnic instead, and while that was possible, it came with an extra charge rather than replacing the lunch. I wasn’t too happy about that, especially considering we had already paid quite a substantial amount for five days.

Unfortunately, the hotel has significantly declined over the past two years. No welcome drink or fruit upon arrival, and the staff no longer meet 4-star standards — no assistance offered with luggage or car. We were given a room with dirty curtains and walls, clearly in need of renovation. When we requested a cleaner, equivalent room, they asked for €50 extra instead of offering an apology. For $440 per night, they also charge €15 per day for very tight, inconvenient parking — something I’ve never seen at other 4-star hotels in the Alps. No “Do Not Disturb” sign in the room, and public areas like the elevator were not clean. Sadly, it no longer compares to more affordable 4-star options in Austria. I used to love this hotel — very disappointed.
