Hotel Stolz

This charming hotel is set in the beautiful, Austrian landscape. I stayed here with a friend as part of a road trip, so we only stayed here one night. We ate a lovely meal in the evening and a vast spread for breakfast the next morning. I've rarely seen such a wide range of things to eat for breakfast in a European hotel. The hotel was extensively refurbished in 2019 and the internal decoration is amazing. I spoke to the owner who told me that he came to stay at the hotel 35 years ago, and fell in love with the hotel owner's daughter, he married her and he's been running the hotel ever since! He also told me that his wife had sadly died just 4 weeks ago. He was a lovely host and I wish him and his hotel all the best.

We stayed as part of a tour group. After missing a connection we arrived very late and the owner was waiting for us and had prepared a meal for us since we missed dinner. They provided breakfast and dinner for our group and the meals were very good with plenty of morning options and usually five courses the dinner. The room was clean and we were on the main floor at the back facing the mountains. We kept the windows open at night but remember to turn off the lights first so you do not attract bugs. We had good storage areas in the room and a sitting area with a table next to a small desk. Every room seemed to be different and we had a pretty large bathroom that was long and narrow. Keys are large so remember to leave them at the desk as you travel during the day. We did not really have enough time to enjoy other amenities but we did use a large conference room for group meetings. There were nice views from the hotel and it was convenient to areas we were visiting in Southern Germany and Austria. Even in August temperatures were mild and pleasant.

Stayed here with a tour group for 6 nights. Great midpoint location between Munich, Innsbruck, Salzburg, and Ettal, all visits during our tour. Our room (215) had a huge balcony and 2 skylights. The bathroom had a large shower and a mirror spanning the wall with the sink and toilet (unfortunately not at an appropriate height for my 5’ roommate. However, there was a full-length mirror right outside the bathroom. The beds, two twins set in a wooden frame next to each other, were very comfortable and we had LOTS of room with a breakfast seating area below the skylights, as well as a desk and chair on another wall. There was ample closet/storage space with enough hangers for both of us, as well as 2 coat hooks near the room entrance. Our group was provided breakfast and dinner and the owner even had to go lunches made for us on our overnight at another hotel near Oberammergau and for our departure to the airport at 3 am on our last day! I enjoyed the food and especially the service, provided by Sveton and Darrin, who were so very accommodating for our large group. The only negatives were: only air circulation was from open patio door or skylights. Because of rainy weather, we couldn’t open skylights every night so slept with patio door wide open (our group was in the next room and our balconies connected!) The door also tilts inward for more privacy, but that didn’t provide enough air for us Americans used to sleeping in air conditioning nearly year-round! The weather was not too hot (upper 70’s F when we arrived) but without the open door/windows would have been very stuffy, especially later in summer. Our room faced the street, so lots of highway noise until the late hours of the night. Balcony lights automatically come on at dusk and off at 10 pm. If you need dark to sleep, bring a sleep mask. As mentioned by another reviewer, wash cloths and toiletries are not provided. However, there is a refillable bottle of hand wash at the sink and a bottle of shampoo/body wash in the shower.
