Hotel & Spa Fontenay
A 5-star pool-and-spa resort with breakfast included
About this hotel
Hotel & Spa Fontenay sits alongside Hotel Der Sonnenhof as one of Bad Wörishofen's two 5-star properties, pairing pools and a dedicated spa with dining options and, notably, free breakfast and free parking bundled directly into the rate rather than priced separately at the top end. A hot tub adds to the pool offering, and pet-friendly rooms mean the luxury tier extends to dog-owning families rather than excluding them. An eight-minute walk to Gasthof Rößle and a short taxi ride to Allgäu Skyline Park round out the practical logistics for both dining nearby and a family day trip. At 9.4 out of 10 across 111 reviews, it backs its 5-star positioning with a consistently strong guest experience.

Our take
This suits families wanting a genuine luxury stay, pools, spa, dining, without paying extra for breakfast and parking on top of an already premium rate. It's a strong pick for a splurge week that still keeps the basics bundled in. Families on a tighter budget will find better value at the town's mid-range Kurhotels.
- ✓Book well ahead of school holidays, since 5-star inventory in this town is limited to a couple of properties.
- ✓Confirm spa treatment availability early in your stay, since demand at the top-tier properties tends to book out fastest.
- ✓Ask about pet-friendly room categories specifically, since not every room type may accommodate a dog at this tier.

Why guests love itThe fact that breakfast and parking came included at a 5-star property was the detail that sold us, since we'd expected to pay extra for both at this tier. The spa was worth the splurge on its own, and the dog being welcome meant we didn't have to choose between the luxury stay and bringing her along for the whole week.
