Ruhpoldinger Hof

A beautiful traditional Bavarian building in the heart of the village. We had a family suite, which was very big - very large main bedroom/sitting area, large shower room and smaller room with two single beds for children. Hallway for bags etc and good storage. Balcony overlooking the mountains. Staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. Allowed me to try my German but able to speak very good English when I stumbled! Good breakfast each morning included in the price. We were able to park outside reception each time we returned to the hotel. The pool is far nicer in real life than the photos suggest - underfloor heating, sauna and reasonably sized pool - more for laps than serious fitness. Well-equipped gym in a separate building. The restaurant wells excellent for two evening meals - better than the online reviews might suggest. The village is beautiful and has we trying you would need. The area is stunning. Rolling mountains, beautiful lakes, verdant landscape (we visited during the summer). Local Chiemgau card gives free or discounted activities - good to take the gondola up Hochfelln and see the paragliders taking off and sweeping views of Chiemsee. Local gondola and chairlift were closed during our stay. Chiemsee boat tours about 30 min drive away. Konigsee/Berchtesgaden about 50 mins. Lots to see and do locally and a good range of restaurants

Beautiful, family-run hotel with a homely relaxed feeling. Rooms were large, comfortable - modern with a traditional twist. The restaurant service was fine with normal orders, but struggled with special requests due to allergies. However the rooms are comfortable, the staff are friendly and the village of Ruhpolding is very picturesque. Can strongly recommend.

A great hotel for the price! The breakfast was what one expects from a traditional German family-owned hotel, and the staff are very friendly. If you want to experience southern Germany, this is a good place to start and end your days out.
