Sustainability

Responsible Energy – Regional and Renewable

The majority of our hotel's electricity comes directly from our own photovoltaic system – clean, emission-free, and powered by the sun.

But we also focus on consistent sustainability: We cover our additional energy needs with 100% green electricity from renewable sources and from the regional bio-district heating plant in Krimml.

This plant uses renewable biomass to generate heat and electricity and reliably supplies us with environmentally friendly energy from the region – CO₂-neutral and resource-efficient.

Enjoy regional products – with a clear conscience

We only serve the best from the region. We consciously rely on local and regional products, which are carefully selected and prepared with love

Whether fresh vegetables from the farmer next door, cheese from the alpine dairy or meat from species-appropriate husbandry – Our ingredients come from regional partner companies that we know personally and trust.

Why regional?

• Fresh & seasonal
        Short transport routes mean not only more freshness, but also more flavor – and less CO₂ emissions.
   
• Strong regional economy       
        By purchasing from local businesses, we support agriculture and crafts in our area.
   
• sustainable enjoyment
       Seasonal, transparent, and fair—that's what responsibility tastes like. And that's exactly what we want to show you in every meal.
   

Sustainable Energy – Directly from Our Roof

At our hotel, we rely on modern, eco-friendly technologies – which is why we operate our own photovoltaic system, covering a large part of our electricity needs with clean solar energy.

How does it work?

The solar panels on our hotel roof capture sunlight and convert it into electricity. A device called an inverter ensures that the generated power can be used directly for our hotel operations – for example, for lighting, cooling, or the wellness area. Excess electricity is either fed into the public grid or stored in our energy storage system for later use.

Your Benefits as a Guest

•  Feel good about your stay
        By choosing to stay with us, you actively support environmental protection. Every kilowatt hour of solar power reduces CO₂ emissions and conserves valuable natural resources.
   
•  Experience sustainability
        Our photovoltaic system is just one part of our comprehensive sustainability strategy – which also includes regional cuisine, short supply chains, and eco-friendly cleaning products.
   
•  Enjoy renewable energy
        Whether it’s at breakfast, while charging your e-bike, or relaxing in the spa – everywhere in the hotel, you benefit from climate-friendly energy powered by the sun.

Because true comfort and environmental responsibility go hand in hand.
We look forward to welcoming you – for a stay that is sustainable, relaxing, and future-focused.

100% Renewable Energy – Even When Additional Power Is Needed

Our commitment to a sustainable future goes beyond producing our own electricity.
Any additional energy we require beyond what our photovoltaic system generates comes exclusively from 100% renewable sources.

We rely on certified green electricity from hydro, wind, and solar power – all guaranteed to be CO₂-free and environmentally friendly.

So you can be sure: Your stay with us is not only relaxing, but also climate-conscious.

Travel Green – By Bus & Train

For us, sustainability doesn’t stop at the hotel doors. We also care about eco-friendly travel and mobility options during your stay – and we warmly encourage the use of public transportation.

Why choose public transport?

•  Lower emissions
        Trains and buses produce significantly less CO₂ per person compared to cars. With every ride, you make a direct contribution to protecting the climate.
   
•  Sustainable travel
        Travelling by train is not only comfortable – it's one of the most environmentally friendly ways to reach us, especially compared to cars or planes. Many train stations today are even powered by green electricity.
   
• Stress-free mobility
       No traffic jams, no parking hassle – public transport makes it easy to explore the area in a relaxed and reliable way. We’re happy to recommend routes and provide timetables to help you plan your trips.
   
•  Free travel with the Salzburg Mobility Ticket
        As our guest, you’ll receive the Salzburg Mobility Ticket, giving you free access to all public transportation throughout the province of Salzburg – whether you’re heading into the mountains, enjoying a stroll through the city,
        or visiting cultural attractions.

Good for the environment – and for your peace of mind.
Because sustainable travel starts with conscious choices – and we’re excited to walk that path together with you.

Taking Responsibility – Step by Step

Sustainability isn’t just a trend for us – it’s a core value that shapes everything we do. That’s why we’re continuously working to make our operations more environmentally friendly, resource-efficient, and socially responsible.

With the Austrian Ecolabel, we now carry an officially recognized certification that confirms our commitment to eco-conscious business practices and sustainable tourism.

What does this mean for you?
You already benefit from a wide range of measures – from the use of renewable energy and regional, seasonal food to eco-friendly cleaning and consistent waste reduction.

Our goal remains clear:
To continue leading by example – for a future where travel and environmental protection go hand in hand.

Together for the Environment – Your Support Matters

Sustainability is close to our hearts – and we are committed to eco-friendly practices in many areas of our hotel. Even more, we appreciate when our guests become part of this effort and support us in everyday actions.

With just a few small steps, you can help us save energy, water, and resources – without sacrificing comfort:

•  Use energy consciously
        Please remove your key card when leaving your room or apartment. This automatically switches off the power and helps save energy.
   
•  Cleaning on request
         If you do not wish to have your room cleaned daily, simply hang the appropriate door hanger outside your room. Our housekeeping team will gladly take this into account.
   
•  Smart towel use
        To avoid unnecessary laundry: Towels you'd like to reuse can be hung up. If you wish them to be changed, simply place them on the floor.
   
•  Ventilate correctly – don’t leave windows tilted
        Please avoid leaving windows in tilt position while the heating is on – this helps keep the warmth inside and saves energy.
   
•  Be mindful with water
        Try not to let the water run unnecessarily while showering. Even small efforts help conserve this valuable resource.
   
•  Separate waste properly
        In your room or apartment, you’ll find labeled waste bins under the sink. Proper waste separation is easy – thank you for doing your part!

Thank you for supporting our commitment to the environment – together, every little action counts!

Sustainability with Heart and Responsibility

For us, sustainability is not a trend – it’s a true commitment. As a family-run hotel, we focus on long-term values, strong regional ties, and a respectful relationship with our environment. Through targeted investments, we lay the foundation for a forward-thinking, conscious holiday experience.

Our Steps Toward a Sustainable Future

•  Our Own Photovoltaic System
        To make our energy use more environmentally friendly, we’ve invested in a modern photovoltaic system. This allows us to cover a significant portion of our electricity needs ourselves – clean, emission-free, and independent.
   
•  Renovation in 2019
        When we carried out a major renovation of our hotel in 2019, one thing was especially important to us: working with local craftsmen and regional businesses.
       This not only ensured the highest quality, but also strengthened the local economy.
   
•  Local Suppliers & Regional Products
        What we serve is sourced primarily from our surrounding area. We work closely with local farmers, bakeries, butcher shops, and producers – offering fresh, seasonal cuisine with authentic flavor and minimal transport distances.

Sustainability you can taste, see, and feel – throughout your stay with us.
