A luxury hotel is set to open on the site of Adolf Hitler's Alpine retreat at Obersalzberg in Bavaria - triggering a fresh row about Germany's Nazi past.

The hotel has been built on the spot where Hermann Goering, the former Nazi air force chief, had his summer residence.

Guests will pay 200 to 2,000 euros ($264 to $2,640; £138 to £1,383) per night for a room.

An official at the centre, Albert Feiber, defended the hotel project. "It's a beautiful place - why shouldn't one build a hotel here?" he was quoted as saying.
