Bad Tölz - Where the former Tölz indoor swimming pool, which was used as a sports studio for many years, still stands today, two hotels are to be built according to the Tölz city council.
We are talking about the urban area on Bockschützstraße between the parking garage and the former Pascher tire store.
As Mayor Ingo Mehner announced at the recent Tölz city council meeting, Merz Objektbau from Aalen has recently signed the lease agreement, and the purchase of the property from the city of Bad Tölz is in preparation.
The company wants to realize the hotel project with the brands Mercure and Ibis by 2025.
The two hotels that will be built on the property will be operated by the Tristar hotel group from Berlin (we reported).
The company currently has 28 hotels in operation and employs almost 700 people.
Tremendous potential
With Accor, an international, global hotel group has been won as a brand provider.
According to a press release, Accor made a conscious decision in favor of the Bad Tölz location.
Since no international hotel brand has yet been represented in Bad Tölz or the surrounding area, the company sees enormous potential here.
The hotel concept envisages that 142 rooms will be realized in the four-star Mercure hotel.
Future guests can look forward to a restaurant, bar / day café and an event area.
A corresponding wellness offer rounds off the stay.
The neighboring two-star Hotel Ibis with 102 rooms offers a reduced range of services, but wants to appeal to a more price-conscious clientele, from business travelers to weekend visitors.
The project development and architecture are in the hands of Merz Objektbau, which presented the project to the Tölzer city council a few months ago.
Completion possibly by 2025
The planning phase has now started with the lease agreement concluded.
If the approval process goes through without delay, completion could take place by mid-2025 after a planned construction period of two years.
So far, the residents of the higher Isarleitenweg have shown little enthusiasm for the hotel project, even if the buildings are not supposed to be larger than the trees there on the slope.
Georg "Schorsch" Huber, whose house is between the sports studio and the area of the Pascher tire store, sees the building project in its immediate vicinity calmly.
"It would be worse if houses were built there," he told the Yellow Leaf. The Tölzer, who is still known as the owner of the fruit and fruit store on the Isarbrücke (today Café Love) only hopes that the trees in the direction of Isarleitenweg will be preserved.
