An Enjoyable Stay at Jakob
We arrived at Jakob after visiting the castles and was greeted by Magnus whose family owns this inn. It is quaint and well kept and it shows. The room was a nice size and comfortable. It was simple and clean and we enjoyed our stay. There is no elevator so you must be able to climb stairs to the rooms. Magnus was kind and carried my suitcase to our room. He also recommended restaurants and we loved the food and ambiance. The downtown is a short walk. The breakfast is ok, not great. Everyone at this inn is very friendly and helpful. I would stay here again.

Loved it!
Loved this little hotel. Although it’s a bit of a difficult walk to get here from the station, once here it’s all great! The service was really good. Breakfast was included in our room booking and was a simple but hearty fare! The marble cake was amazing! Would definitely stay again if ever come back to Fussen and maybe request room with a balcony :)

Easy checkin and the staff was very friendly . Although the hotel isn’t in the main area of fussen it’s a short scenic walk to the main downtown area. My husband and i walked it later at night and felt safe both ways. Free breakfast was good!

Clean with balcony but the dogs!
It’s in an area with lots of other hotels which is within walking distance of the centre. They accept dogs which was not great as they all started barking every time another dog went down the road. If I had read the small print better I wouldn’t have stayed knowing this. Good breakfast and friendly staff.

We are sorry for the Situation about the dogs. They did my head in aswell! But what can i say. People book the room and dont tell that they bring a doog with ore even two. They are at the reseption and what should i tell them. You can stay but your dogs cant??? Sorry again for the situation about the dogs. Best regards Mr.Jakob

Comfy place with outstanding staff
The hotel is set in the idyllic Sense Valley. The hotel is reached by driving through a narrow ravine. However, access to Altstadt Fuessen is by a 10-minute stroll along the Lech River. At the end of the valley is a park with an exercise trail, tennis courts, and other physical activities. Although generally quiet, we were awoken early each morning by garbage or delivery trucks passing the hotel. Our room was pleasant but not exceptional for its comfort, size, or amenities. We did enjoy the balcony though. In addition to the morning traffic, our sleep was less than ideal because of the bed itself. To make a double, two single frames were put together. This resulted in a wooden rail running down the center of the bed not covered by the mattresses. The mattresses were firmer than we like. Although we opened a window and had the heater off, the room was warm and the bed only came with heavy comforters. The shower though was hot with good water pressure. We enjoyed the breakfast, but I thought it was typical for Europe. The cake slices were a nice touch though. The Wifi was strange. I struggled connecting my Android phone but then had a somewhat fast connection. My wife never established a good connection with her iPhone. The amazing staff is what really sets the hotel apartment. They made us feel very welcome and quickly responded to any request we had. Although we enjoyed our stay, we will stay somewhere else if we visit Fuessen again.

A hidden gem in Fussen.
We stayed three nights in this wonderful place. It feels like you are welcomed into a family home. The service is wonderful, the breakfast very nice, and the location is great. It's not in the center of Fussen but a ten minute walk along the river and there are plenty of other walks in the area to beautiful Alpine lakes. It's quiet and restful as well. We couldn't have been happier with our stay and I'd definitely come again.

Cozy, clean, comfortable
Great stay. Would definitely recommend this family run hotel. Rooms are small but comfortable and most have little balconies to sit on and enjoy. The staff will give you a little card to give you a little discount for the castles so be sure to get it if your pinching pennies. Breakfast was simple but the food was good: hard boiled eggs, lunch meats, yogurt, cereal, juices.

Perfect experience in Fussen
Hotel Jakob is a true gem. It's a small, quaint hotel run by the most welcoming, friendly, and thoughtful family. They even went out of their way to make sure we didn't miss breakfast. The property is perfect for the mountain environment. Ammenities are just what you need with a touch of character. The location is perfect - a beautiful short walk from the center of Fussen and quite close to the river path, lakes, and castles. Our experience there made the trip. We will definitely be returning.

Capable host Magnus was helpful and cheerful. He referred us to very enjoyable places to eat nearby. Great for drivers because it is close to town in a park-like neighborhood. WiFi was inconsistent. We had a ground floor triple room and liked relaxing on our balcony.

Enjoyable
We really enjoyed the Hotel Jakob. Granted, no one would consider the hotel to be modern, and the shower is tiny, but it is comfortable, quiet, and the service was great. This hotel has charm. It is less than a 10 minute walk from the town if you'd like to walk along the very scenic river, and only a 7 or 8 minute walk if you want to take the route that goes by the Fedenberg (spelling?) grocery store. And if you'd like to head out to a couple of the clean (and cold) swimming lakes, you only need to head west along a walking/bike path for about a 10 minute walk. And I really liked the beds and covers. I would recommend this hotel, but I would advise them that the shower is very small. Other than that, great.

I would rate it 6 out of 5!
Nice friendly and helpful staff. Hotel is a family business, this family is just awesome. Clean room, well equipped; quiet place, comfort stay. The breakfast is serving super! Good network for web. Hotel is on a "hill top" next to the Füssen city, so you can just park your car and take a good walk and enjoy your time. They got a SPA, unfortunately I didn't got time to experience it but I'd like to try. This hotel is worth earning two more stars!
