The House
It was clear from the outset: the Chiemgauhof was not to be a traditional hotel, but a place that connects with its surroundings rather than overshadowing them. Anyone arriving here immediately senses the special atmosphere of this retreat. Thoughtful details, a minimalist design and a close connection to nature make the hotel a place of tranquillity and inspiration – right on the shores of Lake Chiemsee.
Large windows, sweeping views
In tune with nature
Generous glass fronts open up the view of the lake, as if it were part of the living space. Here, nature is not merely framed by the windows, but deliberately integrated into the experience. The architecture is stripped back to the essentials, without losing any of its warmth.
Inside, light oak floors and bespoke wooden features add warm accents, whilst cool-looking natural stone provides a pleasant tactile feel and rounds off the design.
Larch wood, which takes on an elegant silver-grey patina over time, meets natural stone that feels cool and authentic.The oak floors, the finest textiles and handcrafted details from local artisans make the interior not only aesthetically pleasing but also tangibly special.
Tiles from Fraueninsel
A tribute to the region
The architecture of the Chiemgauhof pays homage to the region and its traditional craftsmanship. Throughout the building, particular emphasis has been placed on high-quality natural materials – not only for their aesthetic appeal, but also for their durability and natural charm. Many of these materials tell a story of the area:
The tiles on the wood-burning stoves, for example, come from the traditional workshop ‘Inseltöpferei Klampfleuthner’ on Fraueninsel. Oiled oak floorboards, hand-woven rugs from LPJ Studio in the Chiemgau region and handmade rugs by Jan Kath lend a sense of understated elegance at every turn. The bathrooms are dominated by dark natural stone combined with light oak.
