accessibility
We place great importance on accessibility in our building plans to ensure that all guests have a pleasant stay with us. However, we would like to point out that due to our hillside location and the historical structure of our building, a few rooms are not accessible.
Although the main entrance is not barrier-free, there is a side entrance to the left of the main entrance, which you can use to reach the reception area via a barrier-free elevator. From there, you can access all of our guest rooms, including barrier-free rooms.
Der Weg zum Spa-Bistro, zu den Anwendungsräumen, zum Innenpool und zum Saunabereich ist barrierefrei zugänglich. Leider sind der Fitness- und Kursbereich sowie der Ruhebereich "Zeitlos" nicht barrierefrei zugänglich. Der Einstieg in den Innenpool besteht aus gefliesten Treppenstufen und einem Handlauf, während der Außenpool einen in die Außenwand integrierten, senkrechten Leitereinstieg hat.
Alle Gastronomiebereiche sowie die Terrasse sind barrierefrei zugänglich, mit Ausnahme des Restaurants "Antons".

Be careful with vouchers offered on sales platforms such as eBay classifieds! These could be fake and therefore invalid.

If you are unsure about the origin of your voucher, simply send us a photo of it in advance and we will check its authenticity.

Travel cancellation insurance | Travel protection | Travel insurance
We would like to make a recommendation that is very important to us: taking out travel cancellation insurance. After all, no one can predict what will happen before you arrive. An unexpected illness or unforeseen events could mean that you are unable to go on your vacation or have to cut it short. To avoid financial losses in such cases, we recommend the products offered by our partner, ERGO Reiseversicherung AG.
