Visitor Reviews of Grainau

I was surprised at the prices of hotels and general shopping. I was there on Nov 3rd-10th, 2007. I had been there before but never during winter time. It seemed like everything had doubled in price. Talk about taking advantage of the ski season. So if you are planning a winter vacation in Garmisch/Greinau, you better be prepared to spend a small fortune, depending on how many people are in your party. Other than that, both places are lovely, absolutely gorgeous. I felt like a small child in a fairytale land.
