Jugendherberge Kreuth am Tegernsee

Kreuth

Jugendherberge Kreuth am Tegernsee is a youth hostel scenically located in Kreuth. It offers a recreation room with table tennis, kicker, and billiards, and free WiFi access is available.

These dorm rooms include wooden bunk beds. There is a shared kitchen area, shared TV lounge, and shared bathrooms. The breakfast was easy but tasty. This accommodation is not primarily for guests used to spend nights in classic hotels. It is a hostel and you need to bear that in mind. This does not change the fact that this accommodation is in a great location. The view of the mountains is truly stunning and healing. The staff was very helpful and warm. We only saw smiles. Parking is free directly in front of the accommodation for hostel guests. We booked two apartments 120 and 121 with their own bathroom and there was also a private kitchen available. Everything beautifully clean. The bed was a little hard for my taste, but someone will definitely like a harder bed. I obviously have a spoiled back :) The attached photo is the view from the window of our apartment. Well isn't that great? At night you go to sleep with the cows in the pasture and in the morning you are woken up by a neighing horse. Nothing else to say. I will definitely return to this accommodation one day.
