Culinary delights, spa relaxation and pure nature in the heart of Hohe Tauern National Park, including breakfast, dinner, wellness perks, and more
  • Reconnect with nature: When staying at Hotel Tauernhof, you'll find that the near-untouched beauty of the Hohe Tauern National Park is all around. Whether hiking, climbing, cycling, or skiing in the winter, the active pursuits are equal parts plentiful and enthralling. You'll also find another unmissable highlight right on the hotel grounds: befriend a flock of adorable sheep and more animals in the hotel's own farm and petting zoo.

  • Enjoy regional flavours: Creative and seasonal cuisine awaits at Schatzarei restaurant, which was awarded two Falstaff forks in 2022. The atmosphere is cosy and inviting, and when it comes to the regional menu, the kitchen sources meat, cheese and other products from suppliers in the area. At the outdoor Tauern Grill, don your barbecue apron and cook up delicious fare on an open fire to your heart's content.

  • Deluxe wellness: Your well-being is taken very seriously at the hotel, with over 1,500 square metres of dedicated spa facilities. An indoor pool, outdoor infinity pool, a sauna and a beauty area all await to be enjoyed, complete with panoramic views of the Alps and an exclusive adults-only zone for maximum tranquillity. Elsewhere, the bubbling whirlpool bath is perfect for some soothing time out, while a selection of massages and treatments is on-hand for all-out pampering. For the perfect wellness moment, round off the R&R with a healthy drink from the juice bar.
