Hotel Kärntnerhof
Nestled in the shadow of Austria's highest peak, the Hotel Kärntnerhof is a charming family-run establishment that has recently undergone a complete renovation. This transformation has seamlessly blended traditional Alpine charm with modern sophistication, resulting in a welcoming and stylish atmosphere throughout the hotel.
Guests are treated to newly renovated rooms adorned with contemporary Alpine decor, while the bar and restaurant exude a cozy yet chic ambiance.
Food & Drink
The restaurant specializes in Carinthian cuisine, featuring dishes made with locally sourced ingredients. Guests on half board can enjoy a hearty breakfast and a delectable 4-course dinner with a choice of main courses.
Complimentary drinks are included during evening meals with beer on tap, house wine, tea/coffee & soft drinks.
Wellness
For those seeking relaxation, the hotel offers a panoramic indoor pool, Finnish and herbal saunas, an infrared cabin, and a steam bath. After a soothing session, guests can cool off in the Kneipp zone located in the Möll stream, which flows through the hotel grounds. The spacious relaxation area, bathed in natural light and adorned with bright colors, provides the perfect setting to unwind and rejuvenate.
Conveniently located, the ski bus stops right next to the hotel, providing easy access to the valley station and back. The center of Heiligenblut is just a 10-minute uphill stroll away, offering additional dining and entertainment options. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity of the cross-country ski trail, ice-skating rink, and toboggan run, with toboggan rentals available directly from the hotel for added convenience.
