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.

Some of our guests came across Hotel Deimann by chance: They have "discovered" our hotel while driving through the Sauerland. Again and again we hear that the view of the brilliantly illuminated rooms has an attractive effect on people. And that the warm atmosphere inside conveys a unique coziness.

Even a photo cannot capture this special aura - you simply have to experience it for yourself. Yet another reason to spend your vacation with us! Gourmets and friends of the Hofstube restaurant were aware that Hotel Deimann has an exceptional chef at the stove in Felix Weber. Now a Michelin star attests to the young chef's talent and brightens up the sky above Schmallenberg-Winkhausen.

The Romantik Hotel Jagdhaus Eiden am See, is a family-run hotel in the 5th generation. Family zur Brügge invests a lot of passion and work in the hotel. Some of the modern hotel rooms have the wonderful view to the Zwischenahner lake. The two different restaurants spoil with regional cuisine with international influences. The gourmet restaurant “Apicius” is awarded with a Michelin Star. In both restaurants products from the garden are used: eggs from the own free-range chickens, herbs and vegetables from the own garden and the greenhouse. The wonderful landscape offers many leisure time activities as stand-up-paddling boards, pedal-boat on the own private beach. The surrounding area can be discovered by bicycle, Segway or foot.
If you are looking for something special, you will find it here.
