In the heart of the Bregenzerwald, surrounded by clear mountain air and vast nature, lies a place that slows down without standing still: the Sonne Mellau - Feel good Hotel. An adults-only boutique hotel that creates space for peace, ease and genuine relaxation - far away from noise, everyday life and obligations. With no minimum stay. But with all the more freedom.
What makes the Sonne special is its personal atmosphere. Few guests, plenty of space, open retreats - here everyone can be who they are. Host Natalie Läßer and her team live a warm, unobtrusive hospitality that creates closeness without being intrusive. Arriving here immediately feels right.

Wellness & exercise with a view
The 1,500 m² spa area offers a relaxing variety of saunas, steam baths, relaxation zones and an adventure garden pool. The offer is complemented by a modern fitness room, a bright yoga room and the popular sun deck - with a warm pool, comfortable loungers and a view of the mountains. A place to take a deep breath, let go and recharge your batteries.

Culinary delights that do you good
The exclusive all-inclusive cuisine combines regionality with lightness: fresh, healthy, creative. Many of the ingredients come from the Bregenzerwald, the cooking is modern and conscious - from breakfast to dinner. Enjoyment without compromise, included as a matter of course.
The Sonne Mellau is not a classic wellness hotel. It is a feeling. And a place that you will want to return to - in summer and winter.

Griaß di
Even Aunt Lisl knew that in addition to mountains and well-fluffed pillows, you also need a good meal, a cozy place to relax, an open heart and good food for a really good gut feeling. That was over 70 years ago.
Since then, we as a family have gone many new ways to preserve this special feeling of home and to reinterpret vacation for you. Our wellness and hiking hotel Gassner **** superior has grown out of the small forest guesthouse - and the pretty Gassner tree house too.

As a genuine family business, we are the perfect complement, because we could hardly be more different. Together with our wonderful Gassner Seilschaft, we bring a lot of warmth, charm and life into the hotel. That's probably why so much of our work is so individual and varied.
Come and join us and be surprised by the wonderful way in which our contrasts attract you. Mia gfrein ins auf di!

Feel good
Still waters and cozy warmth. Deep-rooted naturalness and airy lightness. From inside to outside. From above to below. From sweet idleness to conscious being. In our Crystal and GardenSPA on over 1,200 m², the opposites merge so naturally that you will realize with a satisfied smile how wonderfully enriching it can be to always find a new favourite place for yourself. Before, after, instead or in between - you can mix everything with everything for a relaxing break.
1,200 m² wellness indoor color light pool, natural "mountain lake" pool, salt sauna, panoramic outdoor sauna, organic sauna with spruce scent, mountain crystal steam bath, Swiss stone pine sauna, ice fountain, infrared loungers, family relaxation room and family dress-on-sauna

Out and about
Are you a true child of nature and just as drawn to the outdoors as we are? Wonderful, because as a member of the best hiking hotels in the Alps, our main aim is to find strength and inspiration in nature all year round.
On at least 5 guided hikes, we, hiking guide Monika and boss Hans-Peter Gassner, would like to introduce you to the diversity of nature in the surrounding mountains, hike with you through blooming alpine pastures and climb over perpetual ice to the region's panoramic peaks.

We would like to accompany you on snowshoe and winter hikes to the idyllic snow-covered places of the Hohe Tauern National Park and show you personally how renewing it can be to walk at eye level with nature.

Gassner tree house
Wonderfully close to nature and also a little off the beaten track. 147 m² all to yourselves. A retreat for newlyweds, longtime lovers and the whole family. We believe that when it comes to togetherness, you need a particularly cozy place on this earth and so our dream of an extraordinary vacation nest is yours.

There are many beautiful houses. But the most important thing is the people who live in them, laugh together and do their best together. So feel free to speak from the heart and meet us at eye level.

The Gassner family with the entire rope team.

The Brandl family and the ULRICHSHOF team

ULRICHSHOF is quietly located on the edge of the forest on a 64,000 m² hotel area in Zettisch in the nature paradise Bavarian Forest.

Bad Kötzting is 10 km away. The nearest train station is in Furth im Wald, 10 km away.

The Bavarian Forest is known as Europe’s most beautiful low mountain landscape, remarkable natural park in Germany and impressive magic forest in Bavaria. When speaking of the forest itself, it is usually meant the breathtaking cultural landscape in the east of Bavaria on the border to Bohemia. Endless hiking trails in untouched nature and a wide range of leisure and cultural activities in every season have made the Bavarian Forest one of the famous family holiday regions in Germany.

The winter in the Bavarian Forest is like a wonderland of forest and snow. Next to you a snow-covered tree top, above you the bright blue sky and in front of you nothing but limitless snow fun - this is winter holidays in the Bavarian Forest. Whether on the sledge hill behind the Spiel-KISTE or in one of the three nearby ski areas Hohenbogen, Eck-Riedelstein or ArberLand at Großer Arber, fun with the whole family is guaranteed. In the ski areas, perfectly groomed slopes and cosy places to stop await visitors.

Those who want to take it easy can experience pure wellness while strolling through the area. The fresh, clean air and refreshing nature give strength and new vital energy. A wellness or family holiday in the Bavarian Forest is therefore for many an absolute insider tip.

An established hotel: the Riedlberg has been owned by the Graßl and Mühlbauer families since 1912 and has been carefully expanded from a small mountain inn to a 4-star superior wellness hotel, yet has remained manageable with 58 rooms and suites.
The secluded location in the middle of a large forest estate guarantees heavenly tranquillity and pure, clean air. The unspoiled landscape invites you to take long hikes in the pristine landscape of the Bavarian Forest as soon as you arrive. Since 2020, our guests have also been able to rent e-mountain bikes or an e-car for excursions directly on site.
Our feel-good dreamland covers 5000 square meters with indoor pool (31°) and whirlpool (36°), year-round infinity pool (31°), as well as year-round brine pool (36°). A spacious garden area with various retreats is available to every guest. The modern and comfortably furnished SPA landscape extends over two levels:
Sauna with light therapy, modern Swiss stone pine sauna, large Finnish panorama sauna, 2 steam baths, infrared cabin for 4 people, salt gallery and flower bath as well as 6 different relaxation areas offer every guest their personal favorite spot.
Choose from our wide range of massages and cosmetics with products from the brands BABOR, Gertraud Gruber, Kurland and PINO and enjoy our varied activity program with Nordic walking, Qi Gong, gymnastics and much more.
Our winter guests are in for a special treat: you can use the hotel's own ski lift and toboggan run right outside the front door free of charge when the snow conditions are right - ski school and ski rental are located right on the slope.

The family-run hotel on the Baltic Sea enchants its guests with its timeless elegance and very personal charm.

The Grand Hotel Seeschlösschen is much more than a spa hotel - it is a sanctuary for the senses. The individually designed rooms, many of which have a balcony and a fantastic view of the Bay of Lübeck, offer modern comfort and relaxation at the same time. Wake up to the sound of the waves and fall asleep to the gentle sea breeze in the evening.

Feel-good time for body & soul
At the heart of the hotel is a spacious, modern wellness area that allows all the senses to come to rest. While floating in one of the pools, immersing yourself in the cozy warmth of the sauna area and enjoying relaxing massages and beauty treatments in the hotel's own spa, you can escape from everyday life and find pure relaxation. With a direct view of the Baltic Sea, you can really work out on state-of-the-art fitness equipment.

Moments of pleasure and places of happiness
After a day of relaxation, a culinary journey for the senses awaits in the hotel's own restaurant. The magical view of the Baltic Sea from all the restaurant rooms invites you to dream and enjoy. The fine sand of Timmendorfer Strand is just a few steps away along the promenade from the spacious lakeside terrace, which invites you to enjoy a hearty breakfast or tea time. The 6.7 km long sandy beach not only invites you to take long walks on the beach, but also offers countless opportunities for active vacationers.

Golf lovers and those interested in culture are guaranteed to get their money's worth, and with the proximity to Lübeck and Hamburg, airports are also close by for easy access.

The Grand Hotel Seeschlösschen offers the perfect balance between wellness, enjoyment and experience. A true feel-good place on the coast that makes you long for the sea.

The family-run Alpin Spa Hotel Tuxerhof is located at the entrance to the Tux Valley at 1,300 meters - an exclusive five-star retreat that has been run with genuine warmth and passion by the Schneeberger host family for four generations since 1930. Located directly at the valley station, you can enjoy ski-in/ski-out comfort and 100% snow guarantee in winter.

52 stylish rooms and suites, the 2,200 m² Alpine Spa and the new indoor pool with toddler pool create lovingly designed retreats for relaxation and soothing time-outs. The varied adventure program with over 50 program points - from guided sunrise tours to culinary highlights such as the legendary kitchen party - makes every stay unforgettable.

Its secluded location at 700 meters provides the necessary distance from everyday life. Up here, surrounded by meadows and forests and a few scattered old farms, the clocks go slower. It's as if the good old days are hiding up here. You can forget the hustle and bustle and stress, they don't come up here. The Watzmann outside shows us how it's done - calmly reminding us of what's really important in life: Taking time for yourself and your loved ones. "The best times in life are the little moments when you feel that you are in the right place at the right time," is the Alpenhof motto.

At the 4-star superior hotel, you are always in the right place. This starts with the hut-style reception. Of course, the hotel has modern card keys, but there are still a few of the beautiful old key rings with the family crest hanging on the hooks. Tradition combined with modern comfort is how you could describe the style of the Alpenhof. This can also be seen in the Almbar, which has much of what is commonly understood by Bavarian coziness. The restaurant area is more elegant. Here you can enjoy the sumptuous breakfast buffet and the magnificent view outside. In the evening, there are various menus to choose from.

The comfort rooms are designed in a variety of ways, sometimes in a modern, sometimes in a classic country house style. The feel-good Sauna-Alm is really rustic, as the sauna area is reminiscent of cozy alpine huts and Stad'l. The infrared cabin made of Swiss stone pine provides gentle deep warmth, the steam bath is filled with wonderful brine and herbal mist and perhaps the best thing to do after a sauna session in the Hütt'n sauna with a view of the valley in winter is to rub yourself down with powder snow in the sheltered outdoor area. Afterwards, you can retreat to the relaxation rooms, which are designed like tunnels in a salt mine or old barns, where you can relax wonderfully. The adjoining wellness oasis offers an all-round pampering program. The various massages and treatments provide true wellness pleasure. In addition to classic massages, there are Far Eastern SPA massages, Ayurveda massages and special massages for expectant mothers. The cosmetics department uses the organic cosmetics line from Dr. Spiller, an effective skincare line from the region.

Next door in the indoor pool, you should definitely take a leisurely lap on your back and take a look at the hand-carved wooden ceiling. This ancient carpentry technique is no longer found very often. Small carvings on the pillars look very elegant - which is typical of the Alpenhof. Tradition meets modernity and rustic meets elegant. In the outdoor pool, hot meets cold, at least when it's winter and you can swim through the snow-covered landscape. The outdoor pool is heated to a pleasant 30°C all year round, as is the pleasantly warm 37°C whirlpool.

Afterwards, you can lie down in the sun pavilion, look out over the meadows and forests to the mountain peaks and relax. Here, unwinding becomes a tangible reality. And if you haven't had enough exercise while hiking, you're sure to find it in the fitness room with Techno-Gym equipment. Behind the Alpenhof is the Zapletal family. While Stefan Zapletal looks after the hotel with its 52 rooms, his wife Gabi, a trained chef, is in charge of the kitchen. But the most important thing for both of them is their staff. "We provide the frame, our employees paint the picture," says Stefan Zapletal, who is happy to have such a strong team. After all, guests should simply feel at home in this beautiful hotel in the midst of glorious nature.

The hotel, newly opened in May 2022, welcomes wine lovers as well as families and business guests. SCHEIBLHOFER THE RESORT offers 118 rooms and suites of various sizes, from the spacious Superior Room to the luxurious Presidential Suite. The 4000m² spa area leaves nothing to be desired for your relaxation.

Enjoyment is a top priority in the in-house restaurant "INFINITY". Mainly products from Burgenland are used, with which regional and international dishes are reinterpreted. The culinary offer is rounded off with an excellent selection of wines, with the walk-in vinotheque being a special highlight.

Welcome to our special place of well-being, the sun-kissed Hotel Schönblick in Rodeneck near the most beautiful high Alpine pasture in South Tyrol. At our wellness hotel in South Tyrol, every day is full of precious moments.

Freedom, space, movement - especially now it is important to find a place for relaxation and tranquillity where you can rediscover the unspoilt nature. We live this happiness every day and would like to continue to share it with you.
