PICTURESQUE ISLAND FEELING ON LAKE TRAUN
Family Gröller offers a warm welcome to guests to this superior-4-star hotel in the heart of the Salzkammergut. All 38 bedrooms and suites offer a balcony with magnificent lake view. The Mini Lake Suite and the Salzkammergut Suite on the ground floor both offer direct private access to the lake as well as to the hotel’s own landing stage. As the sole hotel on the lake with direct lake access, the landing stage houses a wellness area with a sauna, steam room and our own beautician for health cures and massages.
RESTAURANT BOOTSHAUS
Lukas Nagl and his team of chefs are the creative inspiration behind the award-winning Bootshaus Restaurant and cook according to the innovative culinary concept ‘Im Wandel der Werte, PUR’ which can be translated to mean ‘Interpretation of Values’. In their restaurant with direct access to the lake, they put a modern interpretation on traditional local meals. PUR – the acronym in German stands for ‘unadulterated and rare ingredients”, denotes the use of highly valued regional foodstuffs, whose natural flavour reaches your plate and palate. In the summer, your experience will be heightened by the lake view from the restaurant terrase and in winter by the contemporary art and divine views.
LAKESIDE HOTEL AT THE GATEWAY TO THE SALZKAMMERGUT
The splendid natural landscape of the Salzkammergut provides myriad opportunities for activities and fabulous excursions. Gmunden, for example, with its history of pottery and the world-famous Schloss Orth, or the imperial town of Bad Ischl are both nearby. Sports people amongst you can enjoy the hotel’s own water-sport offerings (the hotel offers guests its own sailing boat) from the hotel’s beautiful wellness area built out into the water. In the summer months, guided hikes and activites are on offer. Hikes and bike tours, golf courses and plenty more are all within easy reach of the hotel.
The Kranabethhütte on the Feuerkogel
The cable car takes you up to the Feuerkogel mountain station at a leisurely pace. From there it is only a few minutes' walk to our Kranabethhütte at 1530 meters above sea level, which welcomes you with two cosy dining rooms and a wonderful sun terrace. Here we spoil you with either delicious home-style cooking, impressions of upscale Austrian cuisine or typical mountain hut dishes.
The view of the Traunsee and the Dead Mountains across to the Bohemian Forest is simply indescribable! A wonderful hiking trail runs right next to the hut. In winter, the Feuerkogel family ski area begins right on the doorstep.
