I booked this hotel because of what I read in Frommers about the hotels military significance during the second world war. Well it was fantastic. The staff at teh hotel were more than friendly, the rooms were, spotless and our balcony view was to die for. The Eagles nest is above the hotel and you can see it, Hitlers Berghof... more

My wife and I stayed at the Hotel Zum Türken during May of 2007, and would reccomend it to anyone looking for a relaxing retreat into the Bavarian Alps. Frau Ingrid Scharfenberg has the most wonderful personality, and is an absolute joy to speak with. The hotel has been in her family for three generations, and it shows through in... more

Had the great pleasure of staying at the zum Turken over the May Day holiday. Frau Scharfenberg, the owner of the Hotel (it's been in her family for over 100 years!) is a treasure, she speaks english, she is very helful and friendly and she is a great cook! The rooms are very clean and offer great panoramic views of... more

My wife and I spent 2 days here. We weren't really expecting a lot so we weren't surprised or disappointed. The history of the hotel and the area is worth the price of admission., which was $140 euros per night. If you go online and read about the hotel and see the pictures you will have a good idea what... more

Frau Scharfenberg is an unbelievable dynamo and is also very sweet. My room had a balcony facing over the valley and overlooking the site of Hitlers famed Berghof where he spent significant time. When I went... more

We stayed one night in this historical hotel. This is a lovely property and I am sure was at one time a fabulous resort. The room that we had was reasonable size with a lovely balcony. the "bathroom" was interesting, a very small shower and a toilet behind a curtain. However, the Frau that runs the hotel is the granddaughter... more

The history alone would make a stay in this hotel worthwhile. But the architecture and beauty of the building was just an added bonus. I'm a bit of a WW2 buff, so it was eerie to stand on my balcony and look at Hitler's driveway and see the same breathtaking views that I've seen in so many historical photos. The... more
