Great location. .only 10 minutes walk to reach Thermal Kristall Trimini.. and few minutes drive to nice location on the lake, where it is great to swim. When entering the property it gives you feeling being at home.. w. Bavarian touch.. cosy and charming.. warm atmosphere. Breakfast is great.. Rooms with balcony.. it would have been great to have possibility to prepare tee/coffee in the room..but apart from that I would recommend this property to all who enjoy being close to nature or hiking.. I will stay there again when visiting this wonderful area.. Bavarian Karibik.. :)

Lovely hotel in picturesque location.

The hotel is located on the edge of the mountains. The staff were fantastic - so friendly, patient and helpful. The hotel was spotlessly clean throughout. Only minor feedback I would give is that the bathrooms look a little tired. Looking forward to my next visit already! The food was excellent as was the beer!

A great nights stay in a lovely small village.

When we arrived we were able to check in quickly. The room we were given was better than we expected. All the female staff were friendly and were a great credit to the Hotel. There was a male member of staff, he would not say hullo, would not hold open doors. A disappointment was that the pool was neither full of water, nor that warm by comparison to other hotels, but otherwise a great stay.

Visit to wifes village.

4 days with friends. Trip up Hertzogstand on a wonderful day. Visit to Franz Marc. Visit to wifes family grave at St. Michaels. First time stay at Postillion was excellent. The room was overlooking the Kohleiten and was quiet.

Practical hotel in peaceful area

A nice hotel with great views from the balcony. The area is pretty quiet, so a limited choice of evening meal or socialising if you are there for more than one night. The double bed is actually two singles, so that is not the most comfortable nights sleep, however the rooms are nice and clean and have everything you need. Small bathroom but it does the job that is required if you are there on business.

Sehr schöne Unterkunft für einen Kurzurlaub am traumhaften Kochelsee! Die Begrüßung war herzlich und es gab sofort Tipps zu Ausflugszielen. Parkplätze stehen direkt vor der Türe zur Verfügung. Bushaltestelle direkt vor der Türe und mit der Gästekarte sofort nutzbar um z.B. zur Partnachklamm oder dem Herzogstand oder Schlehdorf zu kommen. Das Frühstücksbuffet war jeden Tag sehr reichhaltig und auch frisch zubereitet mit viel frischem Obst. Fußläufig erreicht man den Bahnhof, Metzgerei und mehrere Bäckereien und Cafés. Der Kochelsee selber liegt ca. 10 Minuten zu Fuß vom Hotel. Das Zimmer war sauber und sogar mit einem kleinen Balkon, was mir persönlich sehr gefallen hat. Lediglich das Badezimmer war sehr klein ausgefallen und die Dusche war zeitgleich die Badewanne. Alles in Allem eine klare Empfehlung! Ich freue mich schon auf meinen nächsten Aufenthalt im Postillion :)
