Booking & Payment

You always complete your booking in the booking system there, only this price is binding. If you have questions beforehand or need support, write to us at servus@bergsonne-allgaeu.de. A note if you are coming with a dog: This is only possible with a direct booking with us, not through a portal.
We have 16 rooms, between 17 and 26 square meters. There are five categories: Smart Doppelzimmer, Komfort Doppelzimmer, Alpinpanorama Doppelzimmer, Komfort Familienzimmer and the Pflegezimmer. Single occupancy is possible, for which a separate price applies. 11 of the 16 rooms are barrier-free. Each room bears the name of a peak, its story can be found in the Gipfelbuch in the room.
From your room you enjoy the mountain world in all its facets, from mountain views to wide panoramas. Some rooms have their own balcony, depending on the room. If a balcony matters to you, ask Lio before booking. An upgrade is possible on request, subject to availability.
Plans change, we know that. Our cancellation conditions at a glance: You can cancel free of charge up to 7 days before arrival. From 6 days up to the day of arrival, we charge 50 percent of the total price. If you do not arrive without cancellation, we charge 90 percent of the price. We recommend travel cancellation insurance, then you are covered for all eventualities.
Of course, we hope you will come. If you do have to cancel, just write to us at servus@bergsonne-allgaeu.de, with your name and the period. Between 08:00 and 18:00 we will get back to you within an hour, outside these times at the next business hour. The following applies: free of charge up to 7 days before arrival, 50 percent of the total price from 6 days up to the day of arrival, 90 percent for no-shows.
We do not have separate business or corporate rates. Two things still help you: As a business traveler, you are exempt from the tourist tax, and from 21 days of stay, there is a 15 percent discount on the daily rate. Our prices are dynamic, the booking system always shows you the valid price for your period. The Co-Working area is available for work, bookable for 39 Euro per day.
The easiest way is for each group member to book independently directly with us. If you wish, we will support you. In that case, as the group booker, you are responsible for the check-in and payment of the entire group. For this, we need the desired room distribution as well as the number and age of the fellow travelers in advance. Write to us about this at servus@bergsonne-allgaeu.de.
You can pay by advance bank transfer, card, or mobile payment. Cash is not possible with us, the house is completely cashless, but all other methods are open to you, without a minimum amount. If you want to transfer in advance: If your arrival is less than 48 hours away, we need a real-time transfer.
Unfortunately, we cannot accept cash, the Bergsonne is completely cashless. But everything else is possible: card, mobile payment, and advance bank transfer, without a minimum amount. Payment at the Maxibar is also cashless. There you register your credit card, Apple Pay or Google Pay once, and the outstanding amount is settled upon departure.
We have no cots, because children are welcome with us from the age of 5. An extra bed is available for 40.00 euros if you travel with more people than the room regularly holds. You do not book this online, but on request to servus@bergsonne-allgaeu.de or by phone on +49 8321 3360. The Komfort Familienzimmer has two double beds or one double bed with two sofa beds, depending on the room, and offers space for up to four people.
You don't want to leave? We understand. For stays of 21 days or more, you get a 15 percent discount on the daily rate. Just tell us your desired period before booking, at servus@bergsonne-allgaeu.de, and we will calculate it for you.
An upgrade to a higher room category is possible upon request, subject to availability. Write to us at servus@bergsonne-allgaeu.de, preferably with your name, the period, and the desired category. Then we will tell you what is available for your dates.
Children are welcome with us from the age of 5, we do not host babies or toddlers. The Bergsonne is a silent retreat for people looking for quiet and the building is not set up for small children: stairs and power outlets are unsecured. With children from the age of 5 you travel most comfortably in the Komfort Familienzimmer. Children count as a person for occupancy and price.
The service package is an integral part of your booking. It bundles external services and ongoing expenses that we coordinate for you, and according to § 10 UStG, some parts are not subject to VAT. Therefore, the individual components cannot be deducted. Our packages are calculated as a complete experience; unused individual components will not be refunded. The visitor's tax of 3.50 Euros per person per night is already included in all rates and is never added on top. As a business traveler, you are exempt from the visitor's tax.
You redeem your Animod voucher exclusively via the Animod voucher portal, using your voucher code. We cannot accept the voucher on site; redemption is strictly through this portal. If you need assistance with this, write to us at servus@bergsonne-allgaeu.de.
The 55 Euros is the lower end of our price range. This value applies per person per night in a Smart Doppelzimmer when occupied by two people. Our prices are dynamic and depend on demand, weekends, and holidays. For your desired date, the booking system therefore shows you the current daily price, and only this price is binding. If you are flexible with your dates, tell us your possible period and the number of people, and we will find the cheapest nights for you.

If it's urgent, please call our emergency number directly: +49-171-1979017. Just try him out. Ask him a question, he's available 24/7.

There is no dedicated children's menu, as we do not operate a restaurant.

For lunch and dinner, Lio recommends guesthouses in the region.

For birthdays, our Happy Birthday Paket is available upon request for 65,00 Euro, please register for it in good time beforehand.
You enjoy your breakfast with us in the breakfast room, it is not possible in your room. There is a reason for this: We set the table for you, slice cheese, cold cuts and dried meat fresh, and serve them to you on a large wooden board directly at your seat, your egg is freshly cooked in the kitchen. We serve you at the table instead of making you queue. And if you want to leave early, you can put together a Gipfel-Tüte and simply take your breakfast with you.

Our breakfast is called Bergsonne Morgenzeit and runs daily from 07:00 to 11:00. You sit down at your laid table and breakfast comes to you: coffee in a thermos jug, portioned butter, jam and a basket of fresh rolls are already waiting. At the Marktplatz you help yourself to whatever you fancy: yoghurt, cream cheese, fruit salad, muesli, homemade granola and vegetable sticks in a jar, cornflakes, oats and linseed, orange and apple juice in carafes, light and dark bread and rolls to slice yourself, a toaster, two kinds of jam and boiled eggs with 5 or 8 minutes. Coffee specialities, tea from the samovar, milk, oat milk and cocoa are included. Cheese, cold cuts and dried meat we bring to your seat on a large wooden board, three kinds of each, changing daily. You choose, we serve. That way you only take what you really like and never have to queue.
We do not have a hot kitchen at breakfast, so no scrambled egg, no bacon and no sausages. We focus on cold products of the best quality and on the perfectly boiled egg: at the Marktplatz with 5 or 8 minutes, or on request freshly cooked in the kitchen and brought to your table, soft or medium. What is also warm with us: the coffee, the tea and your toast.
You can have breakfast any time between 07:00 and 11:00. The Morgenzeit follows three phases. Taufrisch, 07:00 to 08:00: for everyone heading up the mountain early, the service is brisk. Sonnenwärme, 08:00 to 10:00: the full Marktplatz, cheese, cold cuts and dried meat from the wooden board and time for a second coffee. Mußezeit, 10:00 to 11:00: for late risers, the Marktplatz gets smaller and whatever is left we offer you at your table. You can put together the Gipfel-Tüte for the road in all three phases.
During breakfast time from 07:00 to 11:00, coffee, cappuccino and all other coffee specialities are included for you. The coffee machine at the Marktplatz belongs to the Maxibar: outside breakfast time you simply enter your coffee in the Maxibar web app, and it is settled when you depart.
