I didn’t take a long vacation yet this summer, which hasn’t been such an issue since we are having such great weather here in Munich over the last weeks, but sometimes you just need a change of scenery for just a few days, to relax and recharge your batteries don’t you ?
We had the most amazing weekend at the and now I’m back home all relaxed and ready to start the workweek again. The Resort & Spa hotel is just an hour drive from Munich, at Tegernsee, which makes it the ideal weekend destination. As soon as we left Munich, I was in full on vacation mode and the environment of the hotel in between the hills and the lake makes it beyond believe you are only a one hour drive away.
What I like most about this place is it’s interior and general atmosphere. The entire Spa & Resort is a mixture of traditional Bavarian elements mixed with modern design and carefully selected art pieces which makes for a very luxurious, yet cozy vibe that makes you feel welcome and relaxed.
A delicious breakfast is served in the round Pavillion building (in the first pictures) which has the local river streaming underneath it. The black bentwood chairs, mixed with brass accents on the tables, little pink flowers on the table and the classic windows and ceiling make this space so fresh looking and the perfect spot to start the day.
After breakfast we went on to a very relaxing day at the and outdoor pool, where we spend hours trying out the saunas, hot and cold pools and just relaxed and had a drink in the outdoor area. The spa is designed according to the Japanese bath ceremony and won the ‘Luxury Spa Resort’ prize, which I can totally confirm: it’s such a great experience and it really feels like time stands still here.
There are different dinner options at the hotel, but the highlight of our culinary experience was the dinner at the , which has top-chef Franz-Josef Unterlechner preparing delicious Japanese food since this year. Also here, I was both amazed by the food as well as the interior, which is a mixture of Japanese touches, with modern elements and local traditional materials.
I had visited the hotel last year in spring time when it was still colder and back then I had spend most of my time in the spa. This time the weather allowed us to be more outside and enjoy the outdoor pool with the mountain view. I’m so in love with this place, I think I should make it a yearly tradition. Maybe next time I should try it out in winter ?
All pictures are taken by me, except for the spa one (didn’t want to take my camera there). This post was written in collaboration with the Bachmair Weissach hotel, but all words and opinions are my own of course. If you would like to know more about the hotel or see more pictures you can visit or have a look at my of the weekend (in the Travel highlight).
