On December 6, 2024, the Alpenstern Genießerhotel, which has won numerous awards this year, opens its doors for the new winter season - and once again attracts gourmets from near and far to its snow-covered retreat. A special highlight is the gourmet restaurant Löffelspitze, whose Kaminstube becomes the setting for an exclusive evening menu three times a week, where every bite is a journey through the heights of taste of Alpine star cuisine. From January 19, 2025, guests will be able to experience the new winter gourmet menu - an event complete with free accompanying drinks that will make gourmets' hearts beat faster. However, the 12 limited places are highly coveted, so it's worth booking early.

Here, tradition meets innovation: guests enjoy excellent dishes created by head chef Alexander Hettegger using local, seasonal produce. Milk from farmers in Grossarl, meat from the hotel's own butchery and locally farmed fish ensure the highest quality. Regional, international and vegan menus are available daily. For steak lovers, the in-house Sirloin steak restaurant is a must, where chef Fabian Ertl serves first-class steaks such as T-bone or Black Angus, complemented by seasonal side dishes. Ingredients are mainly sourced from local producers and the in-house butcher's shop. Sushi chef Alexis Savanx, on the other hand, delights with fresh creations and Asian fusion dishes. Whether in the Kork & Gloria wine bar or the Alpinlounge, the Asian-inspired cuisine can be enjoyed everywhere - refined with local ingredients and matching wines.
