    Our host Christian was an absolute god-send! He was very patient with all of my questions in my slow German, and gave detailed instructions on the local bus schedule, what discounts the Zugpitze Gast-karte included, and where to find open restaurants in the greater Garmisch/Grainau area during the weekend. The continental breakfasts were refreshing, and although there was no Biergarten, there was a vending machine on location full of .5 L bottles of Spaten and Franziskaner (amongst other varieties) for only 2 Euros each. My wife and I were sad to leave, but Christian sent us off with a gift of two pretzels for the road in a small bag. We will definitely book here again!

    The staff is friendly and can speak English well. The room is slightly tiny but kept very clean and has a balcony with a nice view. Close to Eibsee. You can reach Aldi and Edeka within 10 minutes by car as well. Very good value for money.

    I am very pleased with my stay at Zum Franziskaner. It is very conveniently located in Grainau, 1- 2 minutes to the bus stop for the bus between Garmisch-Partenkirchen and Grainau. Very friendly staff, Mr. Christian is very attentive, explains everything you are interested in calmly and in detail. The breakfast is the same every day, but it is varied and tasty enough. The atmosphere in this guest house is very pleasant, in a Bavarian style. Our room's balcony had a wonderful view of the Zugspitze. Upon check-in, you receive a guest card with which you can travel for free during your stay on the bus to Garmisch-Partenkirchen or to the beautiful Eibsee lake, as well as on the cogwheel train from Garmisch-Partenkirchen to Eibsee. WiFi was very good.

    the balcony did not have lights, so it was quite dark at night. And the balcony is shared with the next room without any partitioning. Lucky for us, the next room was vacant during our stay :). the staircase was a bit steep going up to the highest floor. No fridge in the room but had one at the 1st floor for sharing.

    good spread for breakfast ie ham, cheese, muesli, yogurt, juice, hard boiled eggs, fruits. Had a basket of rolls on our table and pot of coffee too. Room was clean and spacious. Easy to locate and had free reserved parking lot. Christian was an excellent host :) Had free bus tickets with our names printed valid for the day that we stayed.

    Great location, very easy to catch the bus to lake Eibsee right in town. Rooms were basic however they were spacious and cleaned daily. Breakfast in the morning was a nice touch. Free parking was great.

    Really nice staff and facilities. Breakfast was really good. The town is so nice and to get to the booking you can take the bus right out of the train station and it leaves you a couple of meters from Zum Franziskaner. I used the train also and it's a 20min walk, and a really nice one too.

    Thin and rather abrasive towels seem to be the curse of such pensions, but they did the job

    Helpful host, clean and comfortable room, easy parking, good breakfast and excellent location. Decent if basic, good value accommodation in the spectacular Bavarian Alps.

    Christian was such a sweet and kind man. He always greeted us every morning with a smile and good morning. We were given a choice of what rolls we wanted, and they were fresh every morning from the bakery and setting on our table. He recommended a restaurant for dinner and we ate there all four days and it was our favorite meals on our trip. It was great having a reserved spot to park so we never had to worry. When we checked out, Christian gave us each a pretzel to eat on the road. This is one of the many special extras he does. We loved our stay.
