Hotel Oswald

© Matthias Dengler

The Hotel Oswald in the Bavarian Forest is indeed romantic - it's a place of longing for connoisseurs of upscale comfort and winter delights. The warmth of the heart can be felt in every room. Regional dark wood and natural materials were used in the construction, giving everything a traditional but high-quality chalet character. Minimalist details provide a luxurious twist. When the surroundings turn into a winter wonderland, hiking trails become cross-country ski trails and pistes. The immune-boosting saunas in the wellness area warm you up again after a snowy excursion. In Oswald's Gourmetstube, high-quality delicacies are served all year round. Head chef Thomas Gerber uses classic dishes to creatively reinterpret them as haute cuisine.

Spa & Resort Bachmair Weissach

Lake Tegernsee winds its way through the snow-covered mountains of southern Bavaria like a fairytale oasis, giving the word winter dream a whole new meaning. The Spa & Resort Bachmair Weissach is well aware of the visual richness of the surroundings. And yet it's the magic of the Far East that pervades the hotel. Japanese elements can be found everywhere, such as in the Mizu Sushi Bar or in the Mizu Onsen Spa with cold and warm pools for a typical bathing ceremony, saunas and saltwater pool. Because you like to share beautiful moments with your loved ones, there are separate wellness and play areas as well as a Kids Club for the youngest - for an all-round carefree winter break for young and old. The hotel was recently named Luxury Family Resort of the Year.

Klosterhof

The Berchtesgadener Land region in south-eastern Germany exudes a very special magic, especially in the winter months. It's not without reason that the Klosterhof wellness hotel with just 65 rooms, suites and spa lofts has settled here - in an absolutely secluded location between forests and meadows on the north side of the Alps. Tranquillity is a precious commodity here, which is used for deep relaxation in the 1,500 square meter Artemacur Spa. For example, floating in the Soledom. The centerpiece is the indoor pool, at the end of which a cozy fireplace lounge awaits guests; free spirits can dive into the heated panorama pool outdoors. Contrasting cuisine is a top priority at the Klosterhof. That's why chef Sascha Förster uses well-known regional delicacies and international flavors to create completely new creations.
