Hotel Garni Gablerhof in Bad Reichenhall

Lovely,tranquil quaint setting. Friendly and personable owner Heidi. Spacious rooms. Delicious gourmet breakfast.

We only had the pleasure of staying one night due to being fully booked. We even asked to stay in the barn or not pay so we would have to work our debt off to stay longer in this wonderful place lol.

Every room has a view of the mountains and forests surrounding Berchesgaden and Obersalzberg.

Will arrange to come back. Heidi the owner and host is fantastic. Full of information, ideas and energy.

Wonderful place full of happy memories

Here I found a little gem, nice host, great wifi, great running track at the Hotel, great rooms, beautiful views, and and and....happy again :)

Addendum: The Breakfast buffet would be a sixth star!

To recommend just !
Beautiful quiet location with a private pond (rowing boat session?) :-) We really had nothing to complain about, the Breakfast buffet rich and with a lot of love designed rooms and especially the bathroom was very spacious, Service is excellent, super friendly and funny ! Feel-good character 1A+ !
If we should break to the rich hall of the Gablerhof is again the first choice. Thank you for the beautiful days !

We visited this hotel second time and both visits war extraordinary experience. Very friendly and helpful staff, very clean and wonderful location.

I Berta contempt for the Gablerhof as a tip, in which one is always in doubt whether you should let Others be a part of, or prefer to be alone.
The lovable Boss is a joy when you have Breakfast Buffet in the morning to the sensational early.She is always there and no request is too much for her. Particularly the daily changing ,fantastic desserts and cakes ,are a heavy temptation for the figure.
The idyllic lake, with rowing boat, conveys an entirely new holiday feeling. This is not least due to the magnificent location of the farm.
The rooms, with large bathroom and balcony,clean and quiet.
The team is friendly and always responsive when it comes to special requests.
I'm always happy to come back , even if it's only for a couple of days.

Our third stay, we were impressed by the Gablerhof. Alone, Arriving in the picturesque surroundings relaxed - the Hof is idyllically situated on the edge of the forest with stunning views over a small lake and mountain panorama in the Background, you can from (almost) all of the rooms. The owners are exceptionally friendly, helpful, give tips for excursions and restaurants, and especially an excellent Breakfast (in a cosy Stube): The eggs are from the farmers and not out of the bag, the coffee is not a typical hotel mix, and every day there is homemade: cakes, tube pasta, Zwetschgendatschi, etc. The rooms are spacious, clean and with a lot of sense, especially for practical Details. The Gablerhof offers a lot of personal touch (and not of the hotel of the rod), such as one finds only rarely. The unbeatable price/performance ratio makes the Pension finally to a recommendation. We have not visited this unique, certainly for the last Time.

We have traveled all around the world, and we make it a point never to return to the same place twice. The Hotel Gablerhof made us violate our own rules! We stayed there for 5 nights in 2013 (see previous review), and we returned for 6 nights this May.

There was plenty more hiking to do, and many more castles to see, but we would not have returned if it weren't for the Gablerhof. And everything was just as perfect as it was before!

As I said in the previous review, the room was perfect - comfortable bed, plenty of space, modern bathroom with great shower, a comfortable sitting area for the evening, a great big wardrobe to hang things, a lovely view over the lake and mountains from the balcony. Everything immaculately clean!! And great attention to detail. For example, there were two sets of towels in the bathroom each set a different color, so you knew whose towels were whose. And two towel racks so everyone had a place to hang their towels. (Good luck finding that in another hotel!) Loved the double sinks, so we each had our own.

The Gablerhof is in a peaceful residential neighborhood just outside the town. Very quiet. Plenty of car parking for the hotel. A nice little church nearby for a pleasant evening walk. A 5-minute drive into the town for dinner. About a half-hour drive to Berchtesgaden area and wonderful hiking!!

Our hosts, Heidi and Georg, were delightful as before - very friendly and helpful and efficient with everything.

The breakfasts are amazing!!! Georg is more behind the scenes doing cooking and baking. Along with all of the other breakfast items on the buffet, Georg bakes a fresh homemade cake every day. My husband and I fell in love with his erdbeer kuchen(fresh strawberries atop a short-bread-type cake) and his rhubarb cake topped with meringue. And as before, the buffet is full of excellent choices. If you want to be healthy, there is always fresh fruit and fresh vegetables, yogurt, muesli-type stuff like nuts and dried fruit, cereals, whole-grain breads, fruit jams, and some type of fish. Or, if you just want deliciousness, there are always eggs and breakfast meats, fresh croissants, sliced lunchmeats/salami/ham and cheeses. And the cakes!

Heidi is amazing. She runs around clearing tables and replenishing the buffet, all the while smiling, asking people if everything is ok, answering questions about sightseeing and hiking, and conversing with guests in a variety of languages. And her delightful humor started our day with a smile!

I can't even believe we're saying this, but it looks like we will be returning year after next!

We spent 5 nights in June at the wonderful Gablerhof, and wished we could have stayed longer! We had a spacious double room with balcony overlooking the little lake and the mountains. The room was spotlessly clean, with a very comfortable king-size bed, sofa and chair. There was a large wardrobe in which to hang things, and plenty of drawers. The bathroom was clean and fairly large (by European standards) with a double vanity and good stall shower, and plenty of room to hang your towels. Good toiletries. A beautiful, restful place to return to at the end of fun-filled days of hiking in the alps and sightseeing in Salzburg.

The breakfasts that Heidi and Georg served each morning were amazing! Plenty of fresh and dried fruits ...especially the fresh strawberries, which were in season. A variety of fresh breads and jams and cereals. A variety of sliced cold cuts and cheeses. A hot egg dish and a hot meat dish that varied each morning. And some sort of fish - shrimp, smoked salmon, herring - each day. And it was so lovely eating out on the terrace each morning, overlooking the fields and a pretty church and the mountains. How could you not have a good day with a start like that?

The Gablerhof is not in downtown Bad Reichenhall, but across the river Saalach in a quiet residential area. We found this to be a very GOOD thing. We had the peace and quiet and ease of parking outside town, but were only a few minutes away by car. Heidi showed us a little free parking area on the hotel side of the river, and you could just walk across the bridge and into town...about 15 minutes. There was also a little lot just on the edge of the Old Town where we parked every night for dinner.

The Gablerhof's location is perfect. It is an easy half-hour train ride from Bad Reichenhall into Salzburg, where we found one full day of sightseeing to be enough. Better still, it is an easy 45-minute drive to the heart of Berchtesgadenerland National Park. We spent four glorious days hiking and exploring the beautiful Konigssee, the Jenner, the Hintersee and Ramsau area....

For dinner near the hotel, we highly recommend Delphi Greek Restaurant in Old Town Bad Reichenhall, where we ate four of our nights...it was THAT good.

Delightful hotel with excellent food, convenient location, and very pleasant, helpful, efficient hosts with an eye for making every detail perfect!! We would return any time, and we highly recommend it!!

We really felt welcome. Very clean airy rooms, great view from the balcony, excellent breakfast with different menus every day. Rooms and breakfast area are well designed and in impeccable conditions. We really enjoyed our stay and would like to come back.

Great, beautiful and quiet location. Plenty of hiking tracks in the area. Accommodation was spacious and clean. Beautiful views. There is a small lake where you can swim and row. Free parking available. Breakfast was decent. The lady who is running it is very polite and friendly.
