We were visiting family in Munich - but didn't fancy the hustle/bustle of the city and wanted a peaceful break, with the chance to do some walking and relaxing. We also had a preference for a traditional cozy Bavarian countryside Gastsatte/hotel. Tutzing is a small, quiet and pretty town, on the lakes south of Munich and in view of the Alps, but with a great train connection (20 - 30 minutes), offering some hotel options - including the Tutzing Hof. Tutzing Hof is a small family run hotel -NOT a resort hotel with every possible luxury or minibars in the rooms. The rooms are simple and clean, have a decent bathroom/shower, and comfortable beds. The bedrooms have minimal other furnishings - a wardrobe, small table & chairs and TV - so not ideal for chilling for a whole day in - but it is a very traditional Bavarian Hotel, with a nice warm cozy dining room/bar area, which is much more comfortable to sit and read, chat in. Breakfast is a typical German buffet style, with plenty of variety. NO bacon and eggs - if that's your thing - but typical breads, cheese, boiled eggs, salami, cold meat, jams, fruit etc - and plenty of them. Dinner is available there until 9pm - and again - typical Bavarian menu - rich food, large portions - with a surprisingly good fish selection from the local lakes and several vegetarian options.... and beer. Staff are friendly and helpful. The overall ambiance is chilled out and relaxing. Things close down by 10pm, so an early night is assured.. However there's also a very pleasant (bustling) Italian restaurant 100m up the street - which tends to stay open a little longer (although last food orders are 9pm here too...). There are other restaurants in the village, which we didn't try.. The lakeside setting is beautiful, and there are longs walks along the lakeshore. Starnberg is the next town, c 5 minutes in the train.

Things got very quiet after 9, but we were outside the tourist season. Bar and restaurant are closed on Mondays (but breakfast is served - and there IS an Italian restaurant up the street). But this is just for information - it isn't a problem.

The atmosphere is entirely domestic, not like in chain hotels. And the host is friendly. Also, there is a safe and comfortable place to keep bicycles just out of the entrence. And the terrace is just awesome for breakfast.

Having a shower gel and shampoo in the bathroom would be great, not just liquid soap. And the bath itself could a bit bigger.

I absolutely enjoyed staying at Tutzinger Hof. Nice location near Sternberger See. The staff were the friendliest and Petra, the owner, has decorated the place in a personal and lovely southern country style. I stayed for the weekend and it was wonderful.

I have no complaints for Tutzinger Hof

Close to the lake, value for money, en-suite bathroom, shower essentials available

Friendly family hotel. Nothing posh about it in a very posh area. Good food, cold beer, clean rooms, relaxed ambience, friendly host. All you need.

Staff, food, ambience

noisy room next to the main road

Restaurant was smelling old tobacco (not smoking anymore) but rooms was ok

it was too expensive for what was offered.

Great location, good breakfast. Free parking on the street.

House needs some love and rooms are sparse. Okay for a night

Nice location, clean room.

Nobody at reception for check in ! No AC at room. Very warm room.
