The staff were so helpful and very welcoming. We were running behind and called them to ensure we could still do a late check in on short notice and they were very accommodating. I would recommend staying here to anyone who likes to get off the beaten path, slow down, and enjoy the breathtaking view!

Wir hatten nach unserer Wanderung einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt im Burggeist. Der Gastgeber und sein Team waren sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Das Abendessen war lecker. Das alles mit atemberaubender Aussicht auf die Alpen. Die Betten sind etwas kurz, Personen ab 1.90m müssen sich "diagonal" hinlegen, dann funktioniert es trotzdem. Der Boden knarrt ziemlich, aber mit Ohrstöpseln schläft es sich trotzdem gut und erholsam. Das Frühstück am nächsten Morgen versorgte uns mit genügend Energie für die bevorstehende Wanderung. Vielen Dank, wir kommen sehr gerne wieder!
