We had such a wonderful experience here. Berchtesgaden is a wonderful place anyway, but the Hotel Zum Turken really made us feel at home. There is so much history here and the surroundings are so beautiful it's really hard to leave once you check in. The breakfast is very nice and complete-it beats the 10-20 euro+ breakfasts at hotels in... more

My wife and i stayed at the Turken for 5 nights and found the whole place wonderful. Birds singing in the morning and a wonderful breakfast starts your day. Frau Schafenburg with help from Pat and the other staff make you feel really welcome and the Honesty writing pad for the bar is a welcome and rare change in todays... more

My stay at the Hotel zum Turken was painfully brief. It has to be the most fascinating, welcoming, beautiful and intriguing hotel I have ever stayed in. Two nights were not enough and I intend to return very soon. The rooms are clean and have no phones, no internet, no t.v. and no radio!!! FANTASTIC!!!!! Housekeeping is excellent. The experience... more

They have a stereo there with CD's and you can play some music...One evening i had the place to myself for some reason and i played some Mozart, did some reading and drank... more

Our stay at the Turken was wonderful. The place is full of history. A must for history buffs visiting the area. The room was very cozy and smelled of apples which had been left for us to enjoy. Frau Scharfenberg and her staff (note: her staff consists of her former guests and now dear friends who come to help) are... more

This place is great! Lots of history and the location is beautiful! There is an old WWII bunker right below the hotel - it is really unbelievable. The owner is great and the breakfast was yummy! The room was very comfortable and there is a washer and dryer if you need to do laundry. I can't say enough wonderful things... more

My partner and I stayed at the Turken and found the place charming and atmospheric. If German WW2 is your thing then this is the place to be. The views are just out of this world and the Hotel is central to investigating and educating oneself about Hitler, SS and the Hitler Youth due to the buildings gone and still... more

My friend and I just finished a 3-night stay here and cannot give enough compliments to the staff. We were treated like family and made to feel very welcome. Check in and check out was simple. The breakfasts are fantastic and even offer made-to-order eggs. We had a balcony room overlooking the valley, which I'd recommend if you have a... more

I booked this hotel because of what I read in Frommers about the hotels military significance during the second world war. Well it was fantastic. The staff at teh hotel were more than friendly, the rooms were, spotless and our balcony view was to die for. The Eagles nest is above the hotel and you can see it, Hitlers Berghof... more
