For years, the Sterr family has always followed the motto: quality instead of quantity, which is why the Wellnesshotel Sterr, with just 34 rooms and suites, has been one of the smallest four-star wellness hotels in the Bavarian Forest for years. The quiet and exclusive ambience is extremely popular with many regular guests.

Comfort and exclusivity for every single guest are really important here, and this is also reflected in the Sterrs' garden paradise. Around the swimming pond, year-round heated outdoor pool and water lily pond, there are numerous romantic sunbathing spots spread over several levels. So everyone really will find their own favorite spot. A professional team of wellness experts takes care of the balance of body and mind with a variety of exclusive wellness treatments. Only selected product lines such as Pharmos Natur are used, naturally pure natural products without animal testing.

The excellent cuisine under the direction of Kurt Muhr also promises the best prospects for connoisseurs. His gourmet experts round off your stay with a brilliant ¾ pampering board. Whether with the excellent breakfast buffet, the popular afternoon buffet or the creative 5- or 6-course menus. And in combination with the friendly and attentive service team, a stay with the Sterrs is a real pleasure. The simple recipe: an extra pinch of attention that conjures up vacation moments: enjoy every moment!
