We loved staying at this hotel and wished we could have stayed longer than two nights. When we…read morearrived at our room there were robes (to include a cute robe for a child) along with slippers to wear to their spa services and/or pool/hot tub. I thought it was a nice touch. We also had free sparkling water. We had a king bed and sofa sleeper. While the bed was comfortable, the sofa sleeper was not. If you have a third person see if there are any other options available. This was the only downside to our stay. The bathroom was separated into two areas- a room with the toilet and the other with the shower/tub. We had a small balcony with views of the Bavarian Alps. It was at the front of the hotel. Now onto what we loved the most: There was an indoor pool on the top floor. It wasn't warm but it wasn't cold. We had it completely to ourselves on both days. It also has great views. Note: On one end of the pool is a button where you can turn on the jets for a lap pool option. Our favorite though was the huge outdoor rooftop hot tub. This is where you really want to go. One evening there was 7 of us in there with plenty of space left. The views of the mountains from this hot tub were probably some of the best views I've ever had. We had the hot tub to ourselves one evening. I question if half the guests knew about the pool and hot tub as apparently the hotel was fully booked but it was a ghost town up there. I will say it is tricky to find. The elevator does not take you directly to it, rather you have to take the stairs and enter through the spa services area. Within walking distance are several restaurants, a convenience store and grocery store. Make note that everything in this area pretty much shuts down at 6 p.m. The only thing that is open past that time is an ice cream shop. I would absolutely return to this hotel in the future. I would try for a week's stay if possible as there is so much to do in the area.

Absolutely flawless hotel experience. Beautifully decorated, fantastic food, quiet and comfortable…read more Excellent location in the middle of Berchtesgaden. Very friendly, multilingual staff will take care of every need you have. Highly recommend.

Raus aus dem Bett, Kleidung an und in einen vielversprechenden Tag starten.

My husband and I stayed here during August of 2014 and we absolutely loved it! We stayed in a…read morebalcony room on the third floor and it was gorgeous. Sitting on the balcony, right on the lake, with a glass of wine. I told my husband that I never wanted to leave! We also had dinner at their lakefront outdoor dining area and it was fantastic! I had the trout fillet with a lemon sauce that was out of this world. It was probably swimming in the lake one hour before I ordered it. Seriously, one of the best pieces of fish I ever had. It came with baby potatoes that were cooked with butter and parsley. The people there are wonderful and very helpful, they don't provide refrigerators in the rooms, but when I brought a bottle of wine from the supermarket back to the kitchen, they were happy to chill it for us in the refrigerator downstairs. If you ever get to visit this wonderful place, do stay or have a meal there, it is really special.

Schattige Wälder und gleich vor der Hoteltür ein malerisch gelegener Bade- und Eislaufsee. Doch das wohl einzigartigste ist die Lage direkt am See. Nicht nur unsere Gäste, sondern auch die Mitarbeiter des Ritzenhofs kommen in den Genuss der Facettenvielfalt des Sees. Zu jeder Jahreszeit ergibt sich ein anderes unbeschreibliches Farbenspiel aus See, Landschaft und der Bergwelt. Nicht umsonst ist der Ritzensee das wohl meist fotografierte Urlaubsmotiv.
