Ammergauer Zeitgeist Medical & Spa Hotel

Excellent service and food. The finest dining we enjoyed during our whole trip. The breakfast is top tier also. The attached spa (pool, saunas, etc) is a huge added bonus. The staff are friendly and attentive. Conveniently located to visit the leading tourist attractions such as Neuschwanstein, Zugspitze, and so much more).

This is not a hotel but a guesthouse of sorts. The rooms are small and there is no coffee/tea etc in the rooms. The double beds have single duvets on ?? The food was ok - nothing to get excited about - but ok... The manager is unfriendly and would not discuss corkage for our own wine, wanted cash paid immediately for wine - even though we were still booked for another night , wanted 6euro for portage! and got annoyed when questioning his reasoning. Maybe he should not be in hospitality!

This hotel is very over rated. I was traveling with a Tauck group and we stayed here to see the Passion Play. The Oberammergau committee selected this hotel for us. Tauck had zero input into the decision. My room was old and dirty. I wouldn’t walk on the carpet in bare feet. I tried to change rooms but the manager was not accommodating. I looked at another room and was debating whether I should stay near my group or move. The other room was on the second floor and there wasn’t an elevator so I didn’t trust that they would handle my luggage without damaging it. As I was trying to decide which room to stay in, the very grumpy owner looked at me and my tour director and said “well which room is it?”. His tone was nasty and he was obviously not happy with me. Ultimately I decided to stay near my group. The room furniture was cheaply made and the front piece of the desk furniture fell off when I tried to close it. My balcony had a huge spider web on it with a very large spider hanging in it. The outdoor furniture was very worn and also cheaply made. I made the mistake of looking for a plug only to notice how dirty the carpet and plugs were. We were there for two nights and I was very happy to leave. I did look at the pictures that are posted here on TripAdvisor. The room pictures are all from the management of the hotel. You should be suspicious when there are zero traveler pictures.

Unfortunately we only stayed here one night when we went to the Passion Play in Oberammergau. This place was lovely & I wished we would have stayed a second night just to explore area. Rooms were comfortable & quiet. The grounds were just beautiful. Wish we would have been able to go to the spa!

Stayed here for 2 nights as part of a Passion Play Package. Lovely room with a balcony - the bathroom was cramped though. The shower door hit the toilet on opening and leaked all over the floor ! Gorgeous gardens with splendid backdrop of mountains . Breakfast was lavish and extensive and good evening meal. As stated, no tea/coffee facilities in room , but, not usual in many European hotels. A very comfortable , brief stop over .

Friendly staff, very unfriendly manager / owner. No kettles or coffee in rooms, charged Euro 4 for tap water ! Shower very cramped. Hotel very clean, excellent breakfast. Good setting, close to station. If it wasn't for the unfriendly and rude manager, rating would have been 5
