The idea behind it

As a child, I used to come to Garmisch-Partenkirchen with my grandparents and my mum. That's why Garmisch feels like a second home to me in a way. And even today, my mum and I still make the trip together regularly – even though we live in the Rheingau and Wiesbaden ourselves.

I have been a host for over 11 years – and a passionate traveller myself. I know the feeling of scrolling through large booking platforms for hours and still not finding what you're truly looking for: a place that radiates warmth and cosiness. One where you can tell it has been thoughtfully designed and personally curated.

Selected Hideaways stands for exactly that – a small, hand-picked collection of accommodations that truly have something to offer. No endless lists, no interchangeable rooms. Only places that inspire us personally and where we know: you'll feel right at home here.

And for those who want a little extra: personal tips from us as hosts for the region.
