1: Spa & Resort Bachmair Weissach

Excellent: 98 | 100 points*

It's the family-friendly wellness hotel in the south of Munich - with a family spa area, a swimming pool, a bio sauna, a whirlpool and a heated outdoor brine pool. But the stylishly designed house has much more to offer! It's like the icing on the cake for the grown-ups: the Japanese Mizu Onsen Spa with unique cold and hot water pools. What else makes the alpine-modern house so special? The Japanese Mizu Sushi Bar, for example, which reliably serves explosions of flavor. The breakfast buffet, which knows how to impress with its variety. And the recently opened multimedia experience world Tegernsee Fantastic, which combines learning with games and sports.
