A sophisticated Bavarian resort spanning two hotels with luxury spa, six pools, upscale dining, and a strong cultural program (chamber music recitals, Daniel Hope Week around Easter draw repeat top-of-stay praise). Staff (Nora, Kersten in the bookstore, Karoline at front desk, Britney in La Salle restaurant, Sarah in cultural affairs, plus Barbara/Kristine/Judith at reservations all named) consistently warm. Mountain hiking trails. One reviewer notes the high-tech room lighting and heating are tricky — sometimes window-opening was the only way to adjust temperature.
Curated collection of independent boutique hotels, accessible via Hyatt's points program.
