The Gmachls are hosts - or live for pleasure, as they would describe themselves - with a passion, and are already in the business in the seventh generation. Connected to tradition, but with an eye on the future, they recently redesigned the entire DorfSPA. On the roof, an infinity pool with a breathtaking view of Salzburg's fortress awaits guests aged 16 and over, and sauna-goers will see the same in the panorama sauna. Quiet resting bunks allow guests to retreat from everyday life. In the Vitarium, body treatments, Ayurveda treatments, massages and natural cosmetics activate the mind and body, while in the Garden SPA a natural bathing pond, indoor and outdoor pool, brine grotto, family sauna and whirlpool provide moments of pleasure.

The luxury resort in Salzburger Land is a place of family cordiality and alpine coziness. While the Hettegger host family and their team provide the former, the latter is a result of thoughtful interior design. Earthy colors, natural materials and lots of light create a unique atmosphere. This is also continued in the 7000-square-meter Edelweiss Mountain Spa. Two separate areas can be found on five floors. While one is reserved for adults, families with children can enjoy themselves on their own 1000 square meters - indoor aqua park with five water slides, an indoor pool with baby and toddler area, play facilities and including a family-friendly sauna area. In the Adults Only Mountain Spa, you can relax in the extensive sauna area including panorama sauna, enjoy weightlessness in the water and views of nature in the infinity pool. The spa menu offers high-quality treatments, including special kids' treatments. At the end of the day, the hotel's cuisine, which has been awarded two toques, puts a satisfied smile on everyone's face.
