Hotel zur Post, Heritage hotel at Kapellplatz, Altötting, Germany.
Hotel zur Post is a heritage guesthouse at Kapellplatz that occupies multiple connected buildings with different room categories spanning from basic pilgrim rooms to luxury suites. The facades display traditional Bavarian architectural details and face the central square with its covered walkways.
The establishment began operations during the early pilgrim era and has functioned continuously as a guesthouse for more than 700 years, making it one of Bavaria's oldest operating inns. Through the medieval period and beyond, the building underwent successive renovations that adapted it to changing needs while preserving its core character.
The hotel reflects the local building traditions of Altötting and its role as a pilgrim destination, blending historical interiors with the rhythm of a working guesthouse. This connection between craft heritage and daily hospitality remains visible in how the rooms and common spaces are organized and used.
The hotel is easily accessible on foot from the central square and offers parking for those arriving by car as well as bike rentals for exploring the area. Accommodations include various room types and amenities, so visitors can find an option matching their needs and budget.
Following major renovations in 2020 and 2021, the property was equipped with modern systems while keeping the original facades and room layouts intact. Guests today stay in rooms that retain old beams or ceiling structures while modern utilities function beneath them.
