A hotel in the southern German state of Bavaria came under heavy criticism for a message refusing a reservation to an Israeli guest that included a message reminiscent of the Nazi era.
The case came to light when Israel's consul general to southern Germany, Talya Lador, posted the rejection message on X.
"Have we returned to the 1930s?" Lador wrote in German.
A screenshot in her post shows an English-language message from the Hotel zum Hirschen in Bavaria telling the recipient that "there are no Jews allowed in our hotel."
The hotel's junior director, Andreas Vogl, told the dpa news agency that the message does not reflect the establishment's "world view at all."
