Hotel overview
Set in a charming 1700s building at the heart of Mittenwald, this casual inn embraces rustic Bavarian character with warm wooden interiors and authentic local cuisine. Guests enjoy hearty dishes like Käsespätzle and pork specialties served in a lively beer garden that buzzes with activity on sunny days. The atmosphere is informal yet welcoming, popular both with travelers and locals.
Rooms offer simple comfort and a relaxed vibe, suitable for families or those seeking immersion in Alpine culture. The surrounding Karwendel mountains are a scenic backdrop, visible from the inn’s outdoor seating area. Located just a short walk from Mittenwald train station, access to nearby natural highlights like Lake Lauter and Leutasch Gorge is easy for day trips and hiking excursions.

What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“2Aug24 Return visit after a long hike from Glaistal. Great to be back. Like the atmosphere, food & drink. Busy place with lots happening. Locals use it too. Ate lunch & dinner in the outdoor area. Order the Stern-Schmankerlteller it is a real pork-fest! Saw a band on Sunday.”
“The restaurant was amazing, with lovely Bavarian food and a lovely ambience to the beer garden. Our waitress, Julia, was very attentive and looked after us brilliantly, making our meal perfect. Well done Gasthof Stern, we will be back!”
“After visiting a few years ago, I came back to see how it's going. The food is good (except for my Apfelstrudel, which was Not fresh :( ), the prices are alright. Nothing to complain Here. It was quite a nice Lunch. If I Had to complain, it would be the Service. They're really friendly, don't get me wrong but Jesus we waited Long. Even for the small Things. The waitress asked us If we wanted some more Sauce, which was really nice of her. Unfortunately it took her Like 7-10 minutes to Bring it so we were already done with the food Still, its a great place for traditional food and I recommend it”
“We had a perfect time here. The room was new, clean and comfortable. The food was wonderful and the staff spoke English and were incredibly friendly. The price was good and included breakfast and WIFI. It is close to the shops and all round a great spot!”
“Great food at an affordable price. The guy who served us was really friendly and gave us a quick service even though the restaurant was around 75% occupied. Well recommended! P.S. we ordered the Backhendl and Hirschgulasch.”
