A Bavarian hotel apologizes after reportedly telling an Israeli guest that “there are no Jews allowed” at the property, according to accounts shared by the travelers and reported by Deutsche Welle. The message led to concerns about discriminatory treatment. In response, the hotel acknowledged that an employee sent the note and apologized for the wording. The hotel said it was reacting to suspected fake bookings, and it framed the rejection as a measure to address fraud rather than a statement about Jewish people. The incident has drawn attention because Germany’s legal and social context includes strong protections against discrimination on the basis of religion. The reports present the same core elements: an Israeli traveler’s booking inquiry, a reply containing the phrase “no Jews allowed,” and a subsequent apology and explanation from the hotel. Details such as whether authorities are involved or whether the matter will be investigated further were not included in the provided sources.

2 months agoIsraeli travelers trying to book a hotel in Bavaria say they received a reply that should be unthinkable in Germany: “Sorry, there are no Jews allowed in our hotel.” The hotel later acknowledged an employee sent the message, apologized, and claimed it was responding to suspected fake bookings — as though “No Jews allowed” were a normal anti-fraud policy rather than exactly what it sounds like.
