This was a deal booking and such a lovely surprise.
The hotel staff and the owners were so friendly and helpful (make sure to go on the tour provided by the owners to learn a bit about the hotel and peak behind the scenes).

We wanted to have a spa getaway and that’s exactly what we got. The spa and wellness area were accommodating all of our expectations. Indoor and outdoor saunas and pool options, as well as two relax areas spread out all the guests enough that we had a good time anywhere we went.

But the highlight was the breakfast. It offered anything you could wish for.

Making use of their partner restaurants/huts we hiked up there for lunch (be aware it’s not an easy one, so come prepared if it’s icy). It was well worth it, but exhausting if you are not hiking on a daily basis.

I can't wait to stay at this hotel again. Great service, lovely rooms, wonderful spa amenities. The restaurant is good but the breakfast spread is fabulous. Easily the best hotel breakfast I've ever had. The hot tubs werent hot enough but all the different saunas and the steam room were just wonderful.

Hotel Das Rübezahl is a charming Bavarian hotel with a fantastic location near Neuschwanstein Castle. The rooms are cozy and well maintained, and the wellness area is a real highlight, offering a relaxing atmosphere with beautiful views. One special experience was the torch walk, a unique and memorable touch to our stay. The food is an absolute dream, beautifully presented and exceptional in taste. The staff are friendly, attentive, and make you feel truly welcome. A wonderful place for a relaxing and memorable getaway in Bavaria.

We stayed at Boutique Hotel Das Rübezahl for a weekend, and the experience was fantastic. The hotel is in a stunning location, right across from Neuschwanstein Castle, which creates an incredible atmosphere. The rooms are spacious, modern, and most offer amazing views of the mountains and the castle. I especially loved the room with a fireplace — cozy and romantic. The staff is very friendly and attentive. Upon check-in, we were welcomed with a drink by the fireplace, which immediately set a relaxing tone. Breakfasts are varied and delicious, and dinner at the Louis II restaurant was an absolute culinary delight. The spa area deserves special mention. The Turkish bath, sauna with mountain views, and jacuzzi make it the perfect place to unwind after a day of sightseeing. There’s also an indoor and outdoor pool where you can relax and enjoy the scenery.

I loved it all. The food, free bike rental, free parking, the cows and scenery, the spa area, the cleanliness and care for the whole property, and the water fountain in the room. Lots of spa options! I got the package with food included and the meals were excellent! I highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to go to the Neuschwanstein castle area. Come for the castle, stay for this hotel! Photos are from mid September.

A Magical Stay at Hotel Das Rübezahl

Our stay at Hotel Das Rübezahl was simply unforgettable. From the stunning views of Neuschwanstein Castle to the warm, attentive service, every moment felt special. The room was elegant and cozy, the spa was pure bliss, and the food was exceptional—beautifully prepared with local flavors. It’s a place where luxury meets heart, and we can’t wait to return.
01.03.2025 Stephen
Our second stay at Rübezahl. The atmosphere, the attention to detail, the staff, the food and the spa were excellent the first time. This time they were even better! The views of, and the walking in, the foothills of the Alps are tremendous. A wonderful, relaxing stay - we will return.
27.12.2024 Megan
Charming boutique hotel with excellent food and service and stunning views of the nearby scenery. Both breakfast and dinner were delicious. This was our second time staying here in 6 years and it did not disappoint. We will stay again if we're in the area.
08.12.2024 DiFey
Highly recommend this beautiful resort. View of the castles, excellent service, outstanding food. The bartender made excellent cocktails. She created drinks just for us. We thoroughly enjoyed the wellness area and outdoor spa and pool.
06.12.2024 Ryan
Das Ruebezal was an excellent experience! The food was fantastic, the staff was exceptional, and Adly the bartender is a master bartender! The rooms were excellent and you can’t beat the views. Would highly recommend especially during the winter.
