Guests mention

Finding the Hotel: Guests say the name on the building differs from the one online, so it's worth checking the exact address and signage before arrival.
Steep Access: Reviews mention the hotel sits up a long, steep and narrow road, which can be tiring with luggage or without a car.
Staff Availability: Several guests note staff can be hard to find at times, especially at check-in, so it's worth confirming arrival time in advance.

Visited in March ‘26 with my wife, we both fell in love with GAP many years ago.. we booked a week off and decided that we needed a few days in Germany.. the plan was 3 nights in GAP, 3 in Nuremberg and then 2 in Cologne, well we did 2 nights somewhere else and shock horror like the last few trips to GAP we decided that we wanted to stay!! Unfortunately our host couldn’t accommodate us and it was back to Booking.com … where we found this spot!|Just outside of Gap, on the side of a hill and overlooking some truly amazing scenery!|Everything in a kitted out apartment was there… just needed some groceries.|The view is truly something spectacular, we arrived on a beautiful spring day.. and left on a winter morning following several hours of snowfall.|The apartment was clean, tidy and very well kitted out, our hosts looked after us. | Read reviews about this cracking spot on Booking.com and they honestly did not make sense… yes the door key opens the main door and the room to my apartment, that does not mean it is going to open the door to their apartments. Also the concern for people who traveled there on foot as opposed to by car… so what!! It is outside of town |… and up a hill, that has to be part of the charm.|I very much loved this place, all of the boxes were ticked.. clean, tidy, fresh, well looked after.. etc!!|But it is about personal preference.. it was somewherei enjoyed staying.. and somewhere I will go back to!|.

Not a great stay. We were travelling so only a 1 night stay. The name on the front of the hotel does not match the name of the place online so it was very confusing to find the place. It took 45 minutes to find someone to check us in when we got there. Staff (seemingly just two men) were always difficult to find, until after dark when they sit outside and talk loudly while people are trying to sleep. I heard their voices until about 1:30am. The window to our small room was only a couple of feet from the road so people walking by could look right in. Cars driving by roughly 8 lineal feet from our heads. My pillow was the sorriest excuse for a pillow I have ever seen. (see photo) Like a couple of old rags stuffed into a pillowcase. The only thing I liked about the place was the free parking and excellent water pressure in the shower. Overall, I would not recommend this place.

Title: Not Worth the Trouble Review: This was one of the most frustrating hotel stays I’ve had. The room looked nothing like the photos shown online, and from the moment we arrived, things went downhill. At check-in, we were suddenly told to pay extra charges that had never been mentioned before — a very unpleasant surprise. The room was stuffy with no proper ventilation, and the toilet was blocked, which was simply unacceptable. The location is another problem: getting there involves climbing a long, steep route that’s exhausting, especially with luggage. Breakfast was clearly listed in our booking, but we were told it wasn’t available. To make matters worse, the attitude from the front desk was unfriendly and dismissive, both at check-in and check-out. It felt like guests were more of a burden than anything else. If you value honesty, basic comfort, and respectful service, I would strongly suggest looking elsewhere.

This hotel was fantastic for the weekend. Vintage style hotel ran by an amazing guy. Very welcoming, great breakfast variety, and amazing view. Parking is available across the street in gravel lot. (No Fee as of Jan 2026) Definitely will return to this lovely place.

Insane ! They just refused to take my luggage till 4 pm :) also they don’t pick up the phone and the people working there are a nightmare . There are 1000 nicer places in Garmisch where they treat you properly with a Bavarian lifestyle . These people are no true Bavarians !!!

The rooms is vintage and clean, best thing is the view from the hotel room, you can get views of the alps and can see Zugspitze. The breakfast is also good and hotel staff were friendly.

Cheap and if you just need a place to sleep at this place works. The drive up to the hotel is a disaster because of narrow and steep roads. But they have free parking which is nice. Breakfast is 6€ per person which is alright but we didn't pay/use the breakfast option so I can't say anything about that. The room we stayed in was small and the bed made a squeaking sound at every movement. The bathroom was okay.

Awful dormitory! Don't book it!It had only 1 bathroom for 8-9 rooms in 1 floor which was broken several times and we couldn't use toilet. It wasn't said about it in the booking com. So when someone took shower or used toilet there were a quieu of people waiting . It was far away from bus station,we don't have a car. They charge for child bed although it was written in booking com that it's included. Awful place, never go there, such a disappointment for so expensive money . Never go there,if you don't want to spoil your vacation
