About us
From 1.05.2024 our hotel will continue to be run as "HOTEL GARNI".
Unfortunately, our restaurant is still closed until further notice.
The hotel is closed from the 1.11.2024 until the 30.04.2025 !
The Hotel Lautersee and "Lautersee Stub’n" is a family business with a long tradition –a place where you can simply feel at home.
For three generations, the well being of our guests has been the highest priority for us.. In 1931 my grandparents Katharina and Josef Kemser bought a restaurant with seven guestrooms idyllically situated directly on the Lautersee between the Karwendel and Wetternstein mountainranges. When it was announced that the Winter Olympics would be held at Garmisch-Partenkirchen, a plan was made to establish a "Sporthotel Seeheim" directly on the Lautersee. In 1936 the house with its 21 guestrooms, was ready in time for the great sporting event.
In the 50´s my mother , Johanna Kemser, guided the fate of the house. To this day the "Rote Grütze Johanna" is on the menu. Later an extension was necessary in order to accommodate the kitchen and a comfortable restaurant. In 1961 a wing was added which blended in wonderfully with the main building in its modern interpretation of the alpine style. This also reflects our philosophy: maintaining our tradition while gently integrating the modern.
After my training as a hotel specialist I took over the business from my mother in 1980. The Hotel Lautersee and Lautersee Stub’n have since developed with some small changes. I have dedicated myself and my team to the well-being of our guests.
A privat road leads you directly to us. You will receive the driving permission from us on arrival.
We look forward to meeting you!
Josef Kemser and his team.
