Hotel Osterreichischerhof

There's something a bit special about the Österreichischerhof – not surprising given that it's one of the Gastein Valley's most popular hotels. It's run by husband and wife duo –Felix and Leda – who really are wonderful hosts, and have invested a lot of time and attention into every detail to ensure your stay is a memorable one. And this is all supported by a great team both front of house and behind the scenes.

The Österreichischerhof is jam-packed with Austrian tradition and style, but with a modern and fresh finish, the hotel is made up of three buildings all connected by underground walkway. The rooms are comfortable and bright, and excellent value for such a central location. Food is also high on the agenda here – expect carefully created dishes combining influences from the local Salzburger region, right across Europe and beyond.

The excellent Celtic Spa is a definite plus point here. Try out the range of saunas, steam rooms and the soothing 32°C thermal swimming pool. Or pay extra for a massage or treatment in the Celtic Vital. And just in case that isn't enough spa for you, the hotel is also connected to the resort's stunning Alpentherme Spa complex – and you get free entry included with your stay here.
