Nice hotel on the main road, but with access to the little village through a second entrance on the rear side of the hotel. Breakfast was good, staff was friendly. We had a hard time finding the hotel using Google GPS, so be careful. The hotel has no parking so they recommend a car park that is across the bridge - drop off any luggage first, as it's a bit of a walk. Overall, a nice stay!

We had a great stay at Hotel Garni Brugger. There is no elevator (lift) in the hotel, but the room was excellent, and the staff were friendly. The breakfast offered plenty of options. Definitely recommend.

The owners are really nice and personable. The place is comfortable and the best thing is their yard, where you can leave the bikes over night, safely stored. Breakfast buffet was delicious and plentiful. Location great and quiet.

Average hotel, rude landlady
Its a three star hotel , and although the room was spacious, there was no air conditioning. The owner (woman) was extremely rude when it came to paying the hotel bill. I had assumed that I had already paid the bill to Expedia directly, as I had in previous holidays. I had assumed that I only had to pay the tax. She then said that the bill had not been paid beforehand. I said to her that I will try paying with my debit card but was not sure if there was sufficient funds in the card and if not my friend would pay it. Perhaps she did not understand me, anyway when the payment was rejected, she was so upset and said " you should go back to the kitchens and make some money or that I had to wash dishes in the hotel" , her English was not very good but there was still no need for her to say that. It was extremely rude. My friend paid for the room.

Great stay, wonderful hosts
This hotel earned its 5 stars because of its staff. I don’t normally name staff in reviews, but Evelin welcomed us as if we were family. She showed patience (3 x kids in tow), explained things in German and English, carried a bag, paid particular attention to the needs of our children, created conversation at breakfast, offered recommendations for things to do and where to eat, and was just kind kind person. The hotel is narrow, and it’s two separate buildings so you may have to navigate from one to the other, but the rooms are worth it. Clean, comfortable, and the rooms are large. Very large for Europe and/or American standards. The hotel is situated right on the edge of the “walking area” and you are near everything you need to be near for vacation. The check in is efficient and welcoming. The rooms nice. The breakfast is typical German fare. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed for this price point in Lindau.

The location is excellent. The breakfast was great. The bedding was ok in comfort level and was pretty clean. Our room located on the second floor. We have to walk upstairs with our luggage because they don’t have elevator. We are happy in overall.

Very welcoming staff, with relativily modern rooms and best of all, a pedestal mounted fan in each room, which was invaluable in dealing with the heatwave weather at the time.

Wonderful find
This hotel was a real gem! Located right on the edge of the old section of town, walking distance from everything on the island. We were greeted by a very friendly member of the staff, who even allowed us to park immediately in front of the hotel for the night. The room was large and clean, with the only down side that the elevator was under repair that day.

Great hotel on Lindau island
A nice comfortable hotel a short walk from the harbour and train station. We received a very warm welcome from the staff, check in was quick and easy. The room was large and had a good sized bathroom with large shower cubicle. It was beautifully clean and even had a mini bar with really reasonable prices. Breakfast is included and this was a good standard, typical Bavarian fare. Lindau island is pretty small so everywhere is a short walk away, about 10 minutes to the harbour to catch ferries to Austria and Switzerland. Lindau is a beautiful old town, there are plenty of good places to eat and the beer is generally pretty good! We ate at the Alte Post and the Engel stübe both serve traditional Bavarian food with great atmosphere and beer and reasonable prices.

Ordinary
Needed a city centre hotel for one night. Hotel is in the middle of a pedestrian zone and difficult to find and impossible to get near with a car. It served it's purpose, a bed for the night but this slightly rambling hotel hasn't been updated in a while and were I to travel to Stuttgart again I'd choose somewhere easier to get to!

Excellence in Lundau
The hotel was perfectly located and the parking was very convenient. Note: you do have to walk about three blocks - which for us was NO problem. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet was excellent and provided everything you could want. The room was large and the beds comfortable. If we're back in the area - we will definitely stay here again.

Despite poor weather during my stay Lindau was a neat town to visit. B and B type hotel run by what appeared to be a couple. Very nice. Breakfast was simple but had options. The rooms were fairly large relatively speaking in Germany and were clean.

Great location!
The bathrooms have been recently upgraded and it looks great. The rooms are clean and the location is great! Parking: You have to park in the lot across the street which is inexpensive. They only charge for daylight hours, so we only paid a few Euro. However, if you are planning on staying a few days, expect to pay 30+ Euro, depending on your trip length.

A wonderful hotel
Situated right on the island of Insel, the hotel offered a very good stay with nice and tidy rooms, attentive and friendly staff, nice breakfast, in-room WiFi and a huge nearby outside self-parking. Very pleasant stay on the charming island and the beautiful historic town of Lindau. Highly recommended.

Very decent hotel in Lindau
This is a rather basic hotel in a good location (although not the best location on Lindau island). Nevertheless, we enjoyed our stay as the hotel was clean, comfortable, offered very nice breakfast and was run by extremely friendly and helpful staff. The only slight deficiency that I noted was the insufficient sound insulation of the windows facing a relatively busy main road. The hotel, like all others on the island, is not exactly cheap, but we felt it was worth the money and we would recommend it without hesitation.

The hotel is small, pleasant and tastefully decorated. The room is comfortable and very clean (but bring your own soap) The staff (the owners are working the front desk and serve breakfast) are nice, efficient and knowledgeable if you need info regarding where, what and how to go about this small enchanting town

Wonderful place to stay in Lindau
Lindau is a great place to visit and this hotel is a great place to stay. The hotel was clean and comfortable, but did not have an elevator. The staff was outstanding. They were very friendly and spoke multiple languages including English. The breakfast was served in a very pleasant setting and included a wonderful array of meats, cheeses, fruits, and breads. In room internet service was not included but was available for a very modest cost. Everything in Lindau is within walking distance.

Hotel Brugger Garni in Lindau, GE
We only used the hotel as a sleeping spot, as we were actually visiting family in Switzerland. The hotel is very nice, with quaint rooms. Unless you specifically book overnight parking early, you will end up relying on limited spaces in public parking lots.

We were a large group (8) and were very happy with the Brugger-Garni. The location was ideal for Lindau and for visiting Austria and Switzerland. Close to parking. Staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast far exceeded my expectations. We will stay here again!!
