We recently stayed three nights at the Hotel Maximillian in Schwangau. The property is a short drive from the castles with a distant view of Neuschwanstein from some of the rooms. We found the location to be a great home base for side trips to Oberammergau, the Wieskirche, and Schloss Linderhof.
Our room included the customary German breakfast buffet as well as the half-board option which includes the evening meal. The food was good to excellent at all meals and the staff was very helpful. The majority of the other guests were German speaking and the staff was very helpful when they found out our ability to speak German was very limited. The rooms were clean, the hotel was quiet, and the room rate was very attractive.
