“An elegant hotel in the heart of Bavaria surrounded by glorious countryside. Spacious rooms are traditionally dressed with plenty of pine wood and exposed stone. Spend days unwinding in the expansive spa, riding the property's horses or exploring the region by foot. A tranquil rural escape.”

Hotel review

Perched on a hill above the idyllic village of Liebenstein stands the Bayerwaldhof, dripping in classically Bavarian understated luxury. The Bayerwaldhof redefines the meaning of relaxation: with warm and welcoming interiors, marked by wooden beams and furnished in a rustic, homespun charm, it is a place of tranquil ambience. The en-suite rooms themselves have Alpine interiors, as cosy as a chalet, and all come with wifi, a TV, safe, minibar, sitting area and hairdryer. Relaxing isn't hard when you're standing in the spa, over 10,000 square meters of sauna, 4 pools, a gym and a whole host of different beauty treatments. If you fancy a swim, you are spoiled for choice: there is a heated outdoor pool, an indoor pool, whirlpool and a healing liquid pool, after which you could try your hand (and/or feet) at yoga, with one of the on-site personal trainers. The owner of the hotel was a renowned equestrian and has a stable of over 20 horses that is open to guests, pending request, but children can ride for free. There are 2 restaurants, one of which, Leo's, serves a la carte menus of simple, decent cuisine, while the former deals with fine dining. Both of which use only locally-sourced, organic produce. Whether you're trying to escape the manic lights and sounds of the city, or whether you're looking for places to hike, this is the perfect hotel for you.
