Find hotels in Ammersee from CA $101

The best areas to stay in Ammersee are the towns of Herrsching am Ammersee and Dießen am Ammersee, both offering excellent access to the lake and local amenities.

Herrsching am Ammersee is a popular choice due to its direct train connection to Munich, making it very convenient for those flying into the city. The town boasts a lovely lakeside promenade, the longest in Germany, great for leisurely strolls. You'll find a good selection of hotels, restaurants, and shops along the main streets leading to the lake, and it's also the starting point for the ferry service across Ammersee.

Couples often find Herrsching appealing for its mix of natural beauty and accessibility. You can enjoy romantic walks along the promenade, take a boat trip to explore the lake, or visit the nearby Andechs Monastery for its historic brewery and panoramic views. The town provides a comfortable base for exploring both the lake and the wider Bavarian region.

Dießen am Ammersee, on the western side of the lake, offers a slightly quieter and more artistic vibe. It's known for its historic monastery church, Marienmünster, and its vibrant arts and crafts scene, with numerous galleries and studios. The town centre is compact and pleasant, with charming streets and local shops.

For those seeking a more tranquil escape, Dießen is an excellent option. It's ideal for travellers who appreciate local culture and relaxed days by the water.

The best times to visit Ammersee are during the summer months, from June to August, or in the late spring and early autumn, specifically May and September.

Summer is ideal for those who want to make the most of the lake itself. The weather is typically warm and sunny, superb for swimming, sailing, or enjoying a boat trip across the lake. All the lakeside cafes and restaurants are fully open, and there are often outdoor events and festivals happening. It's a busy time, so booking accommodation and popular restaurants in advance is a good idea.

May and September offer a quieter, yet still very pleasant experience. In May, the landscape is lush and green, and the temperatures are mild, making it excellent for hiking and cycling around the lake without the summer crowds. September brings comfortable temperatures and the start of the autumn colours, which can be quite picturesque.
