Rural. Urban. Wellness in the Salzburger Land

The best of two worlds

 

Where carters used to meet to rest and refresh themselves, today real pleasure-seekers from all over the world come to the outskirts of Salzburg. In a place that has been telling stories of hospitality for over 600 years. And of the art of welcoming people from a wide variety of backgrounds to your own village. An impressive journey through time in terms of hospitality and accommodation to one of the most popular wellness hotels in Austria.

Often described as a "village with character", the Genussdorf Gmachl has always evolved with the needs and wishes of the people: Today, the sixth and seventh generations run the hotel together.
The eighth generation explores village life through the eyes of children.

Rooted in a long tradition - and yet always with an open view towards Salzburg and the wider world - this unique, authentic, village-urban hospitality has been established and continued.
