This was our first time staying at the Bavarian Inn. We were very pleased with the price. We have stayed at various hotels and this was by far our favourite in Frankenmuth.

We had a great time! Rented a scooter for my Mom for 2 days at a very reasonable price. The hotel immediately gave a new one when there was an issue! The pool, waterpark, and funzone were all fantastic. We just wish there was coffee in the rooms, instead of the centralized locatiins. Overall we wiuld DEFINITELY come back and stay here!

Great place for a Girls Trip!

The Bavarian Inn was amazing! Even though we didn't have kids and weren't at the hotel for the water park, there was still so much to see at the hotel and around it that we had a great time. The personal touch of suites having local people and their history on the walls really touched us. Our suite was very comfortable... loved the whirlpool! Staff were amazing, caring and always interested in us. The local restaurant was good, and the brunch we attended was great food!
