The hotel is just like another hotel with welcoming staff, neat and clean room. But the scenic beauty you get to see around this place is very serene and calming. The way to reach this place also has nice views going through village and farm lands. Morning breakfast was also great and there were loads of options to eat from. I surely recommend to go here and feel the scenic beauty. Plus they are kids friendly.

Very good service. Great food! I asked for a vegan option and I was not disappointed! The main course was a Mushroom "thingy" on root vegetables and potatoes on the side. The dessert was vanilla ice cream made from soy milk, strawberries and merengue made with aquafaba. Delicious experience in a very beautiful setting with a very nice view of the sea.

Wieskirche

The Pilgrimage Church of Wies (Wieskirche) is an oval rococo church, designed in the late 1740s by Dominikus Zimmermann. It is located in the foothills of the Alps in the municipality of Steingaden.

The sanctuary of Wies is a pilgrimage church extraordinarily well-preserved in the beautiful setting of an Alpine valley, and is a perfect masterpiece of Rococo art and creative genius, as well as an exceptional testimony to a civilization that has disappeared.

The hamlet of Wies, in 1738, is said to have been the setting of a miracle in which tears were seen on a simple wooden figure of Christ mounted on a column that was no longer venerated by the Premonstratensian monks of the Abbey. A wooden chapel constructed in the fields housed the miraculous statue for some time. However, pilgrims from Germany, Austria, Bohemia, and even Italy became so numerous that the Abbot of the Premonstratensians of Steingaden decided to construct a splendid sanctuary.
