Just by my subject line, you know we had the best stay of our lives . The first time at the Helmerhof was the summer of 1999. We simply booked here, due to the location and proximity to the Neuschwanstein and Schwangau castles. It was a stab in the dark, but our family certainly enjoyed every single second and it... More

We were on a 21 day motorcycle trip through Bavaria and Salzburg, Austria. We made no reservations and had good luck with all of our hotels. Hotel Helmhof had beautiful views of Neuschwanstein castle and beautiful sunrises in the morning. Clean, friendly attmosphere and great food. They also offer massages and hot stone therepy. The room was spacious and the... More

The Helmerhof is situated in the little town of Schwangau and located one street off of the main road that runs through town. The hotel staff was friendly and accommodating during our stay there. Breakfast is very good and your spot is reserved at the same table every morning. Meats, soft boiled eggs, breads, jams, yogurts and cheese along with... More

Book an upper floor (2nd or 3rd) with view toward castle (Neuschwanstein). Very good value, excellent breakfast included, very clean, spacious rooms. Center of town, very convenient for castle touring.

The hotel was in a great location. We had three rooms, one of which had a view of Neuschwanstein. The beds were as comfortable as I've found in a European hotel. The dinner in the restaurant was outstanding. The rooms were a good size, and the shower was very nice. They provided us with the toiletries you would normally find... More

Having spent a few days south of Innsbruck, we made our way through the towering alps to end the day in the small Bavarian town of Schwangau, with two objectives: visit Neuschwanstein (that was great!) and spend an evening in the nearby thermal spa (not so great! - reviewed under attractions.) This inn is located in a residential neighborhood -... More

This turned out to be a much bigger hotel that we’d expected (from looking at their website), and it also has a large restaurant with multiple rooms and patio areas. We had free parking on the field over the road, which seemed safe enough. Our room was number 49 on the first floor of the main building. It was a... More

Great room, view, restaurant, and staff. Very nice size rooms and ours had balcony with view of the castle. Free parking is on site. Dinner at the hotel was one of our best meals in Germany.

This hotel is the best! From the outside, it looks very cute and there is parking right in front. From the moment you check in, the staff treats you like family. They show you your room and are very thorough. The rooms are extremely comfortable (best beds we had the whole trip), clean, quiet, and CUTE! The view is absolutely... More

The room was spacious, the view of the castles were awesome and the food at the restaurant was superb. However, we arrived the hotel on a wed evening and was going to visit the castle the next day. The check-out time is 11am so we wanted to leave our luggages with the staff until after touring the castles but was... More
