Dorint Sporthotel in Garmisch-Partenkirchen

Rocked store! Room smells musty and old. Interior is worn everywhere and has been worn for years. The purest disaster, we cannot and will not recommend this house! But 1 positive aspect. The beds were good!

Great location, great staff, unfortunately very old.

A quiet place offering good Services. Price quality is a plus.

The rooms are okay, nothing extraordinary What we weren't happy with was the service We asked at the reception if there was a short and pleasant route, as we had really heavy and large suitcases with us, but the receptionist had no idea. The receptionist told us, the houses are connected underground, no worries “Afterwards we walked for about 15 minutes or more, climbing stairs and hallways with suitcases weighing about 23kg, I know she can't help it (after a day of hiking you just want to relax), when we finally arrived in the room We realized that there was a shorter and much more pleasant way to get to the room. We spoke to her and asked why she sent us all the way, she couldn't say anything and didn't apologize either

We are very satisfied with the restaurant and the children's play area. But since we were with 3 children (1 year 8 months and twins 4 months) we didn't find it well organized to get a room on the top floor without an elevator. The door couldn't be locked either. The children were also counted like adults in the restaurant.

The Dorint Sporthotel does what the name says. It is aimed at sporting activities. Although it is a bit old, it exudes a pleasant charm. The room we had was very large with a comfortable dining area. What was to be criticized was that the pedestrian exit to the main street was not sufficiently cleared and that - as announced in advance - one was not informed about the availability of the room.

A sports hotel that only opens its sauna to guests at 3 p.m. and the fitness room only at 10 a.m. on weekends should, in my opinion, reconsider whether the term sports hotel is permissible... even the employees at the sports reception shake their heads about it when asked just the head...

This is a very good place to stay in Garmisch-Partenkirchen for families with children. It was cleaned every day and the food 🍴 is delicious 😋. Thank you .

Hello and welcome to the Bus Hotel Dorint Garmisch Partenkirchen, If you like mass processing, this is the place for you. Rooms are completely worn out, a total renovation would definitely be recommended. Indoor/outdoor parking fees of €15 per day are unfortunately not mentioned by the travel agent Travelzoo. Not recommended!

I was there for the first time. There are so many differences, it's crazy. I find it really bad to only move into the room at 4:30 p.m. The rooms are tip top, modern. Swimming pool, sauna, fitness, solarium for 6 minutes. €7 is really expensive, something should be changed. From breakfast, to all menus, to buffet meals. I was sad about the buffet, because there was a lot of mushrooms served to eat, in the goulash, as a cream soup, too many mushrooms, just too much, and the taste wasn't overwhelmingly good either. And the prices are pretty steep. I personally find it cheeky to charge €15 for parking. The accommodation was also expensive for 3 nights with breakfast. 😠😠😠 I won't go there again. Unfortunately the pictures aren't the best but they're easy to see.

Wonderful winter days with a view of the Olympic ski jump👍The hotel/mountain village is ideally located on the sunny southern slope and is only a few steps away from the Olympic ski jump ⛷️🎿 Gladly again.

Hello The hotel is well located. The staff very friendly and helpful. The rooms are large and well divided. The breakfast is more than sufficient and the evening buffet is good. Unfortunately, renovations are necessary on every corner, the equipment is from the early 90s, it's a shame that there is a need for action because the facility offers more.

Our feel-good hotel. Rooms very spacious and clean. The staff incredibly friendly. The pool very warm. The food was very tasty. The New Year's Eve party was a blast :-)

A bit outdated sports hotel in a great location near the ski jump. However, it exudes the brittle charm of the 80s with some construction defects and defective furnishings.

We stayed at Dorint over Christmas and really enjoyed our stay. The staff are extremely friendly and accommodating, the breakfast and dinner were varied and delicious. Our room was very spacious. The gym is huge and the sauna is also very good. There are even indoor tennis courts. However, the hotel is getting a bit old, and it was particularly noticeable in our bathroom and hallways that they needed to be modernized.

Great employees and one of the most beautiful beer gardens in Werdenfelser Land! Hopefully we'll see each other again in the summer... Thank you from KoitabochMusi from Garmisch-Partenkirchen!

The hotel lives up to its name. Sports fans will get their money's worth. Great studio with high-quality furnishings, indoor tennis court, pool and much more Beautiful rooms and also a mega breakfast (also good for athletes) We were super satisfied and will definitely come back

The swimming staff yelled at us because we went into the sauna without towels because we didn't know that textiles had to be shown. They also made pizza for us because our entire kitchen didn't work and in the end it was underbaked but the service was good

Good hotel but very rustic and in desperate need of renovation. Charging stations in front of the hotel and service, highly recommended

Spectacular place, well located, at the foot of the mountains, with beautiful views of the Valley

Very nice hotel in a great location and a fantastic breakfast and especially dinner buffet, the latter every evening based on a specific regional cuisine and therefore very varied. Top recommendation!!

Very nice hotel and is ideal for families with children. The rooms are big enough and the staff is very friendly. A great hotel for short breaks and ski holidays

A perfect hotel for athletes or people who want to explore the surrounding area and relax in the wellness area in the evening. The food was very good, varied and diverse. Our room was also very nice, spacious with a beautiful view of the mountains. Unfortunately we received a towel with a stain twice. In addition, some parts of the hotel are a bit old and need renovation (e.g. the wallpaper over the large pool, which is partly peeling off or the partly worn carpet or wooden furniture). However, the hotel seems to have been renovated in places, and there is a very nice, modern winter garden in the dining area. Unfortunately the parking space is very expensive at €11 per day. The spa area includes a sauna area with two saunas, a steam bath and a whirlpool as well as the large pool. Unfortunately, once in the sauna area my towel, which was hanging on a hook next to the pool, was simply taken away by an employee because she probably thought a guest had forgotten it there. The employee who did the infusion was great, he was very attentive and caring and placed a lot of importance on making sure everyone felt comfortable.

Nice staff, we got a free upgrade to a large apartment. Quietly located, but the path to the apartment is very difficult. You have to carry or drag everything. This is not advantageous, especially in winter. The bathroom needs to be renovated, the tub is not suitable for older people to shower. Breakfast delicious and varied. But you have to go to the main building.

I was a guest at the hotel with a friend from October 2nd to 5th. We particularly liked the size of the room, the view and the breakfast. The employees were quite friendly and accommodating. That was really great. We've already booked for next year - mid-June with mom and dog as a 55th birthday present. We're looking forward to it. ☺️

- The price in the low season is absolutely top - very flexible and friendly reservation management - tasty and rich breakfast buffet with a large selection - great sauna area with sauna master and infusions - nice indoor pool where you can even swim a few strokes :-) - some employees should speak much better German for a 4* hotel - Transporting luggage to the rooms is really difficult due to the space

It is a somewhat outdated but definitely nice hotel. It ultimately consists of several buildings connected by tunnels. This means that it takes quite a long time to get to house 5. Running times of around 10 minutes for the dinner buffet are sometimes a bit difficult to manage, especially with children. The family room was spacious and well-equipped, but the carpet seemed a bit worn and could use replacing. The small kitchen, which can be booked for €30, has everything you need to prepare a small meal. The food on offer for breakfast and dinner is very good and of high quality. All in all a good holiday at a fair price.

Great rooms with balcony, service was close to perfect. It is a long walk to many of the locations.

Beautiful place, everything 100%

A very nice hotel, suitable for the location. The food was excellent, the staff very friendly. Absolutely child-friendly with a newly renovated playroom. The pool area was inviting and the water was very warm. You can also have a longer vacation here. The individual apartment houses are quiet. The tunnel system is great for moving dry between houses. The paths are long. This might be worth knowing if you have restrictions here, but there is certainly a solution.

This hotel is an absolute architectural highlight, but unfortunately it seems almost run-down in many places. From wobbling chairs to wobbling armchairs to wood that hasn't been painted in ages, something has to change here quickly. In this condition it is no longer worthy of Dorint and therefore too expensive. If an extensive renovation takes place here, we will definitely come back, as the conditions for a great holiday are absolutely there. Apart from the poor condition, everything is fine

No, I won't come here again. Dorint. Where everything is possible... In fact, there are some things I've never experienced before. I'm currently in Garmisch-Partenkirche. The wellness area, swimming pool and sauna are highly advertised. At least the sauna was still working yesterday. Swimming pool was closed. No information on the homepage when booking. The sauna is also closed today. There is an alternative location in another hotel. But who wants to get dressed in the car after the sauna and drive back? There is also a buzzing noise in the room. Some refrigerator behind a closed wooden wall. Incredible at night. In general the room is very shabby. Stains on the carpet. No.. Won't be coming back.

- Parking costs a whopping €11 per day - ordered two pizzas to take away for €14.50 each, the photo speaks for itself! After we complained, our parking fees were waived - the path from the parking lot to the room, house 5 in our house, is a short hike - Swimming pool, sauna etc., reception and rooms are all in different buildings + Swimming pool is quite nice + nice view Unfortunately, the price doesn't match the performance in any way

Everything is fine. Service perfect.

A very nice hotel, with very great service. The wellness area is very nice. Delicious food

The hotel is in great need of renovation. The rooms are not cleaned properly. The carpet in the room and also in the hotel is dirty. The sauna area is also outdated. The entire facility is getting old.

Positive: - Large room - Very good, large breakfast buffet - Nice staff Negative: - The whole complex is very spacious and connected with tunnels - Room with 2 bathrooms, but only one toilet, with an awkwardly positioned toilet - The hotel is visibly old, wear and tear is evident in many places. But nobody seems to be interested in the condition, many things could have been replaced or repaired with little effort (e.g. wobbly steps, doormats in front of the front door, coat hooks on the bathroom door, doorstops underground). All little things that, when taken together, simply leave a negative impression. - TV remote control was empty (or broken) - The parking garage and parking spaces are VERY narrow and they also charge €11 per day. Almost outrageous. - 2 parking decks were closed, the evening search for a parking space became a gauntlet - Cleanliness was so-so, there was dirt in front of the room (probably a potted plant once stood here), the floor behind the door was not thoroughly cleaned - Trash cans in the bathroom were not emptied Would I come here again? Probably not.

All in all recommended. Unfortunately there is no free parking. Breakfast very good. Room was quite warm. Even though the heating was set to frost position. The room had a bathtub and enough space for the clothes you brought with you. A small refrigerator was also available. What was annoying was that some electrical device turned on every hour for about 5 minutes. There are also opportunities for swimming and sauna. Price-wise it was ok.

Super nicely located staff super nice 1 with star

Unfortunately it is getting old, some of it needs renovation. Our apartment was equipped with a dishwasher and oven, but unfortunately they didn't work. A technician was supposed to come by the next day, but unfortunately he didn't come. Unfortunately there is no information that the sauna can be used without textiles.

Good authentic hotel. Family friendly.

I enjoyed my stay there. The place is beautiful and big. The location is good too. The bus stop is near the hotel. The breakfast good with a lot of option to eat. The service of all workers good, they are so friendly, respectful and sweet. The atmosphere is very old Bavarian!! I would come back!!

I've been coming here for 20 years, used to go regularly, then stopped for a while and now we're back. Positive: The hotel is still great, the swimming pool and sauna are great. The rooms are great too. It's a shame that the sauna is only open in the evenings. Unfortunately, you can see that renovation is urgently needed in many corners. I hope the timing isn't overlooked as it's really about time. The corridors and corridors in particular have seen better days. The breakfast is also great, even though there used to be more choice. The staff is friendly. Conclusion: the hotel has seen better days, but with a renovation I see the hotel in a positive future.

Very nice hotel, great spa area, mega breakfast buffet.

Yep, no comparison to Dorint Hotels in larger cities. Here, people seem to rely completely on the location, and unfortunately that shows up everywhere. Inside and outside with the charm of the 70s, renovations were only made where absolutely necessary. The furniture, apart from the beds, really comes from antediluvian times. The kitchenette is advertised online, but costs an extra €13 per night. The bathrooms apparently received their last coat of paint shortly after the change. The swimming pool has seen better days (there is no plaster on the ceiling, no counter-current system, etc.), the small children's pool could have been left out, the water was almost colder than in the large pool. Unfortunately, the price of the restaurant evening buffet (€38 pp) does not correspond to what is on offer. A la carte is similar, it is simply bland with many details that were negatively noticeable. (Baked potatoes served without sour cream, pizza is frozen, no children's menu offered despite children at the table). The taste is also rather below average, for example salt is mainly used for seasoning... and not much else. In any case not appropriate for the price. What should be positively highlighted is the apparently newly installed children's playground in the inner courtyard, which has good equipment. The staff is also extremely friendly and helpful. I know all of this much better from Dorint Hotels, which is why I didn't expect a situation like this. Too bad we won't stay here again.

Sauna area was not as advertised. One of two saunas was broken. Everything is clearly getting old. Showers there are only lukewarm. Rooms are good, big, tidy.

We were there with a tour group of around 50 people. Check-in went quickly and smoothly. The staff at the reception were extremely friendly.

Nice hotel. Very good location! Food good too. The breakfast buffet had everything available and was very tasty

The hotel is a bit old, but is gradually being renovated. Despite the stains on the carpets, it is a very well-maintained hotel. These carpet stains didn't bother me or my husband. The rooms are not in the main house, but in the separate houses that are connected to each other underground. Or you can reach it via the beer garden. The service is great, very friendly even in the event of mishaps. The only thing that bothered me a little was the horrendous price for a bottle of water in the room. The parking space at €11 a day is also really steep. Maybe think about it again ☺️. And the toilet bowl in the bathroom, which was a little too low, wasn't really a big deal either. The lighting concept in the bathroom also needs to be reconsidered. I found it very dark. Otherwise we were satisfied, the breakfast buffet was very good, there was everything your heart could desire. The food itself in the hotel is also highly recommended. Simply delicious. A special thanks to Ms. Hiltmann. They were simply great. We have rarely met such a hotel manager 😄. If we come back to Garmisch, we will go back to the Dorint Sporthotel.

Wine spritzer 0.2 for €6.9 borders on a rip-off times three. What's more, it has no mineral water taste.

We stayed at the hotel for 3 nights. The investment backlog in all parts of the building is obvious. Most carpets need to be replaced because cleaning is no longer possible. Tiles are missing on the stairs to the indoor swimming pool. Almost everywhere needs to be painted. The location of the hotel is great with a view of the ski jump and Zugspitze etc. The staff is very friendly. The breakfast leaves nothing to be desired. The wellness area is very good. The additional costs (€11.00/day) for the underground car park are excessive.

Room clean, comfortable, great mattress. Service from reception to restaurant and at all other contact points was friendly, quick and competent. Fantastic view and great location.

The Dorint Sporthotel Garmisch-Partenkirchen seems to have left a very positive impression, especially in terms of cleanliness and room quality. However, the stay was quite expensive, especially for one night without breakfast. The breakfast with an additional charge of 25€ per person and the additional fee for the garage are highlighted as negative points. The bar area gets positive mention, with a good selection and friendly service. It's a shame that the spa wasn't used as this might have made the stay more enjoyable.

The stay was very nice. The food is good, especially the breakfast has a very large selection of high quality. The service is top. The hotel room "apartment" is great in terms of size and layout, but it's just getting a bit old. Highly recommended.

To be honest i only liked the location of the hotel no one will help you with your luggage My room was not cleaned for three days even when i went to the reception and told them to tell house keeping to clean the room they didn’t and i told the at least just take the garbage and give me new towels also no buddy showed up

Originally a great hotel that is getting very old. Stained and worn carpets and sofa and some obvious construction sites (e.g. dripping water from the ceiling, etc.). For us the price-performance ratio is no longer right. Breakfast for 25 euros is definitely not worth it. There is a large selection, but the quality does not correspond to this price (some of the bread comes from the day before). The staff is very friendly. The location is great with a view of the Olympic ski jump and the Zugspitze.

We were there three nights. Of course the hotel is getting old and you could list deficiencies here, some of which I'm surprised would be easy to eliminate to leave a better impression and you would generally have to start with the renovation. But Location really great Very nice staff Very nice boss who takes care of everything The breakfast was great If the weather is bad, you can take a sauna, swim, play tennis or go to the gym - all of this is included in the price Go beyond Extra charge for massage etc. Book And that's why we get 5 stars in the hotel category for the price we paid for a large apartment here We'll be back Greetings from Saarland

Price/performance is not right, the carpets in the hallways and in the room are worn out. Everything is a bit old... The swimming pool was clean and very large for swimming. The breakfast is very good and the atmosphere there is good and the service is friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, the price for one night with breakfast is not justified overall.

Good food and good service. I'd love to come back.

As many people write here, the hotel is very outdated. And Dorint's response is always to renovate. The only question is when. Check-in is only possible from 4:30 PM. Which is a ridiculous time. At 4 p.m. the lobby was full of people waiting. The rooms still needed to be cleaned. Would I go here again? No, not even after the renovation.

Pretty old. Chairs stained, wood z. T. rotten. Beer garden very pretty. Very quiet location.

A beautiful and vast resort with multiple sports facilities, including a tennis court, indoor swimming pool and yoga room. We are indulged in the holiday atmosphere and the beer garden is good too. Originally we reserved an family apartment for 4 people but instead were offered with two double rooms which is OK for us except in different building. We urged them to manage to put us in the same building. The interior of the room is spacious, and the aged bar showed that it was originally designed as an apartment. However, decorative panels were installed to cover the original kitchen sink and stove. We experienced two power outages, which were strange because we didn't turn on all the lights or use any appliances that used electricity. Thanks to the staff for the quick response to check the fuse and the power switch. Overall, the interior was clean and suitable for an overnight stay. The cost for overnight parking was higher than our expectation which standed at 11 EUR. We didn't have the dinner buffet also for its high charge. Instead we ordered pizzas to take back to our room, which was delicious and the staff were friendly to offer us enough plates and utensils and tell us to just leave it in the room when checking out. All buildings including the front desk and restaurant are connected through a underground pass which is good in rainy days, except for the trouble to take 2 time elevators and a few stairs. It should be renewed as some slopes to facilitate the barrier-free accessibility, considered for guests with wheelchair or large luggages. The aging carpet showing stained shall be replaced too. They've offered a wide variety and rich items for breakfast all you can eat. So still I would recommend this hotel considering its location and price compared to nearby accommodations.

So many little things done completely wrong. At the end of this review I will list all of them and I also gave the manager the same information. So generally the employees there don’t appear to have any interest in customer service or running a good hotel, for them it’s just a job and we (the customer) are just not really important. On top of that the facility is really old, the rooms are very old in terms of style and quality. And in the end, the food and drink is broadly under quality and expensive which is a poor combination. However, the wellness and spa area is really great and the location is perfect. So here are all the problems. We were a group of 6 (3 rooms) and had the same thing across different rooms. 1. Room has a kettle but no coffee or mugs or anything to use with the kettle 2. Room has a wine bottle opener but no wine glasses 3. There’s no bathrobe or slippers in the room so you have to walk to the spa in your bathing suit. Or fully dressed and get changed there (weird) 4. There’s only one towel per person. But a lot of empty storage space for extras. Upon checkin there were NO towels. 5. The pillows were yellow and lumpy. 6. We ordered a lunch pack instead of breakfast which was one white bread sandwich with a piece of cheese, apply and a Joghurt. Really sub-par 7. At 7:30 they Gardner decided to wake us all up with his truck and start cutting bushes with a trimmer. After being yelled at he went away. 8. A juice costs 6 euros and you can only pay with card on a minimum 10 euro purchase. When we paid with cash the bartender had no change. Absolutely ridiculous, even with EC card, minimum purchase. 9. Majority of staff don’t speak German or English very well. 10. The fried eggs we ordered at breakfast on day 2 was microwaved… absolutely disgusting. We had to reorder our fried eggs actually fried which took quite a long time. 11. Breakfast is generally low quality, with cost saving ingredients. Scrambled egg from powder, fruit without taste, cheap meats, old coffee machine etc. 12. Parking gate was broken, car was stuck in parking for a while as we debated costs. 13. We were surprised with city tax of 12 euros even though booking.com said all taxes included. In the end, this is my second time here. Last time in 2022 it was ok. Now it’s NOT ok. And I feel like this hotel should be converted to holiday homes and just close the hotel part because these business clearly isn’t striving. But the older clientele 70+ seemed very happy.

Great atmosphere in a cute “mountain village”! Perfect for young, sporty families!

The condition of the carpets is clearly worth mentioning, but I think the dog owners are also not entirely uninvolved. In our room, as soon as we entered The smell of dogs in the room wasn't great. But we weren't impressed by that. Tip for you, create rooms on the ground floor that are intended exclusively for dogs.

I will not recommend the hotel, too expensive, basic for the service, rooms, parking etc.

Rooms should URGENTLY be renovated...bathroom etc is original from 1985. Location and concept are still good.

Nice location, but that's almost all. The staff are hard-working and the waiters are very friendly. The rooms and the whole hotel are really getting old. You can find defects everywhere. From the room where the boxes hardly open, not so nice carpets, tiles that are missing in the indoor pool, and so on. You have to pay for parking... The location is great and 4 stars for the staff and service. -5 stars for hotel and price....

Overall ok..., Due to the room (see comments there), other, more modern accommodations will be preferred for future stays.

All in all, I would give the Dorint in Garmisch-Partenkirchen 4 out of 5 stars. The hotel itself is already getting old. Renovation backlog is probably the right word here. It exudes the charm of the late 90s or early 2000s. Nevertheless, we would book again at any time, even as a family (4 people). We were guests for 4 days. A new playground was built or modernized for the very little ones. The rooms and bathrooms are clean. All "residential" houses are connected to each other via a tunnel to the reception + restaurant (main building), SPA and underground car park. This is ideal, especially in bad weather. The breakfast is varied and very good. We optionally booked it on site. There are several tennis courts, a swimming pool and a GYM available. The hotel is located on the eastern edge of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, about 3 km from the center, and is therefore in a very quiet location. From our room we had an almost unobstructed view of the ski jump. The Partnachklamm is very easy to reach on foot. What should be highlighted is the service in the hotel and the extremely friendly and very helpful staff. We would like to see the hotel and the rooms renovated soon, but we are already looking forward to seeing you again!

Nice location, very nice and attentive staff, room was tidy and clean, very good and rich breakfast, negative actually only parking fees, according to the statement the underground car park costs, we parked outside the underground car park, but the costs are the same, so please park in the Communication. Unfortunately, the evening buffet is from 38€/p.p. Far away in terms of quality

Great location, very nice and courteous staff, great structure of the hotel. Beer garden is great. Any time.

The location is good and our dog had access to a terrace with a "garden" in a large comfortable room. Otherwise the price-performance ratio is simply not right. Everything is in need of renovation and is really getting old and everything there is just way too expensive.

Large family apartment rooms, nice Biergarten & pool. The grounds are very noisy after 12 am even on a Sunday night. Loud music with no quiet hours.

old, in need of renovation. Horrible carpet (everywhere) and scary elevators.. We also preferred to go home at night rather than use the (logically paid for) room. This says a lot... Good location for excursions, but I definitely wouldn't recommend the hotel. Nice staff but unfortunately that doesn't help with the condition of the hotel.

Wonderful hotel with a beautiful setting. Great access to the Olympic Stadium and gorge. Easy to walk and easy to access with a car. Accommodations are relaxing, clean, and spacious. Our golden retriever enjoys it, too. Breakfast buffet is very nice. The only negative was the restaurant's dinner buffet which was costly and very bland - definitely not worth the price. There are many wonderful restaurants nearby.

Great starting point to discover the area.

The hotel is getting old and in need of renovation. Our room was outdated, the bathroom from another era. In addition, there was a stained carpet, stains on the bed sheet and the entire bed linen was full of dark, short hairs. We left the hotel straight away.

Nice rooms, apartment kitchens were very poorly equipped, after we let them know it was partially delivered. The cleaners don't keep an eye on it. The spa and sports area is very nice.

We can only recommend it. Been there more than 10 times and not once disappointed. Experience for young and old, with or without children, with a cat, mouse or dog... everyone will feel good

Nice resort, it's just a pity that parking costs extra (there are not many free places), i.e. plus 10 euros per car.

Overall impression: run down, careless, in need of renovation There was mold in every nook and cranny, peeling plaster, broken furniture and old mattresses were still in the hallway after 3 days, there was mold in the wellness area and most of the lights were broken. Price per night absolutely not justified. A pity. Not again and not recommended.

Location, service, food, cleanliness are all great, but the rooms are getting pretty old

Quite decent, but a bit old. Large rooms, good breakfast, nice staff. A bit away from the city center.

We stayed in the hotel for four nights. Location great for hikes. Parking is great. The breakfast was also good. Enough choice. And we found the staff very friendly. We'd love to come back.

Good food, good room, nice staff

Unfortunately I don't have much good things to say about this hotel. The hotel has a good and rich breakfast, a very nice and courteous receptionist and a good location. Unfortunately, these were all the positive points. It is assumed that this is a 4 star hotel from a large chain. But you receive what is probably the oldest object in the chain with massive defects Our vacation started out really disastrous and could only be made bearable by complaining everywhere. A big thank you goes to the head of the reception, who was able to “save” it with her friendliness and options! In retrospect, we are hardly surprised why there are so few and very artificial pictures of the hotel on the Internet. The description raises expectations and anticipation - but on site it is more than sobering. It all started with a small hotel village. There was no mention of that anywhere. Nor does it mean that you have to travel halfway around the world with suitcases or generally for breakfast. If that had been known, we would have had different expectations. Unfortunately, the first impression of the facility and room was not any better. Everything is getting pretty old and seems dreary and loveless. The room was also pretty dirty. The highlight was a board under the mattress. Which was supposedly forgotten to remove because the previous guest liked to sleep hard. Unfortunately, you could see that it was there because the box on the bed was already cracking. After complaining to the travel agency, tour guide and on site, we received a new room - the "showroom". Well, that was it at first glance - clean, modern, new. The longer we lived in the room, the more the defects became apparent. Writing everything would go beyond the scope. The worst thing for me was the poor lighting and the catastrophic electrical system. It was almost always dark in the room, whether with or without light. The lights constantly flickered and the built-in spotlight in the shower was hanging loosely on the cable. As I said, there are even more defects here that can be overlooked, but which greatly reduce the appearance and well-being. In order to raise this facility back to a 4 star level you will probably need several million euros. It's really a shame to pay so much money for a vacation and then be happy that you're only in the room to sleep. We saw new beds and mattresses being delivered every day. Something's going on. As the saying goes, better late than never. I could write so much more here, but that's just beyond the scope. Unfortunately, we cannot recommend the hotel in good conscience and would have liked to have read such honest reviews in advance. We also can't understand all the excellent comments and wonder whether we have too high a standard for a 4 star hotel. Our vacation would certainly have been better remembered with other accommodation. Unfortunately, this stay always leaves him with a bitter aftertaste.

We spent a very nice holiday at the Dorint Hotel in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. The hotel is a bit old, but is already being renovated. That didn't bother us. It is well equipped, clean and tidy. It is located on the outskirts of town in a quiet location. We had a nice, large room with a terrace and a fridge. The beds were very comfortable. There is an indoor pool, a sauna area and a large fitness studio that can be shared free of charge. The staff is very friendly and gave us lots of tips for excursions. The breakfast buffet is unsurpassed: it offers a huge selection, everything is very tasty. There is a lot to discover and do in the area and there are many lakes. We would love to come back again :-)

Chic hotel Nice service The sauna master is 10/10 friendly, relaxed and happy to do an extra round. We liked the all-round package! Location very good, 10 minutes walk to the Patnachtklamm. Traveling as a 9-person hiking group. The rooms were perfect and well laid out.

Rooms are a bit old - but of course in a great location.

Everything about this was great, the breakfast was amazing and the people who work there are extremely helpful. Although it was hard to get the included WiFi, everything else was great, as I said. If I ever travel to Germany again, I'll stay at this location again because, truly, it was that great. :)

A historic hotel that retains its old style and old furniture in Garmisch. The service is very bad if you do not monitor them. The manager is very helpful. The swimming pool and sauna are free. You will not miss the swimming pool. The location of the hotel and the view are beautiful. For lovers of old and historical hotels. Parking is a sum.

Nice hotel, clean and friendly staff. Some rooms can only be reached via several flights of stairs. So not really suitable for people with mobility problems. As a tip for the hotel, our mattresses needed replacing, maybe we were unlucky. And there is a nice beer garden. (See picture)

Good hotel with large apartments. Breakfast was great, the hotel bar and hotel beer garden were also very nice. The hotel complex with various houses, all of which are connected underground and can all be reached dry-footed, gives the feeling of a park. The ski jump and Partnach Gorge are within walking distance.

Super clean, spacious rooms. Service is good and fast. Food tastes great. You can get to pretty much all the excursion destinations in no time! Look directly at the ski jump from the room. We will come back!

The hotel has a typical Bavarian charm and is very conveniently located. The city center and sights (Olympic ski jump, Partnachklamm, etc.) are within walking distance. The rooms are quaint and clean. A big drawback, however, are the unair-conditioned rooms (at 28° outside temperature and facing south, it was almost unbearable); the door and windows could not be tilted for ventilation. The staff is very nice and accommodating, the service is quick and good. The hotel offers a very good breakfast. The food in the hotel restaurant is available à la carte or a changing buffet, which is also very tasty. In addition to many activities in and around Garmisch-Partenkirchen (Partnachklamm, Höllentalklamm, Zugspitze, Alpspitze, etc.), the hotel offers a fitness and spa area. Parking is available at the hotel, but is subject to a fee other than described on the booking portal. On the whole a nice hotel, which is a bit old, but is ideal for a short break or hiking holiday.

Went there for 2 people for a week in September. Former top furniture completely worn out!!! Carpets in the room and the entire hotel are unreasonably full of stains and some are probably decades old!!! One mattress in the double bed is almost new and the other is only half as high with a hollow and side slope!!! Bathroom quite OK. Staff clean certain areas well. Except for the bathroom, basement lighting in the rooms. Dinner only for 37 euros per person!!! Drinks too expensive... e.g. a beer 0.5 / 6.50 euros etc. Breakfast GOOD and plentiful if there early enough. Front desk people 50/50. Bookings via Booking, people 2nd class. If you're looking for the 80s, this is a great insider tip. *Location* and peace of mind top.

Nice place, quiet, old furniture and good breakfast

Very spacious rooms, friendly staff, Bavarian charm and very good food 👍🏼

Fantastic place for the family and easy trip to nearby attractions. Huge, quality room and the gym and pool were a bonus we didn't plan on but used quite a bit. Would for sure recommend and go back.
