A Bavarian hotel has faced intense backlash after rejecting an Israeli customer's booking with a message reminiscent of the Nazi era.

The hotel, located in the Bavarian Forest, apologized for the 'regrettable error' after the Israeli consul general posted the rejection message on X.

The hotel claimed the message was a result of human error and frustration with fraudulent bookings and phishing attempts.

However, the Central Council of Jews in Germany has called for an investigation into the incident, and the tourist has filed a complaint with the Bavarian Justice Ministry's office for combating antisemitism.

The hotel's owner has received threats and calls for their murder since the incident became public, and Booking.com has removed the hotel from their platform.
