Michelin
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
On Gumpenberg above Haus im Ennstal, directly on the ski slopes overlooking the Dachstein massif.
The rooms
Rooms are paneled in native Swiss stone pine, and private balconies look straight toward the Dachstein massif.
The outdoor pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The 25-meter outdoor sports pool is heated year-round, looking across the mountain slopes toward alpine peaks.
The sauna village
A panoramic timber sauna overlooks the valley, and the outdoor infinity whirlpool gazes across the snowy peaks.
Yoga and relaxation
The freestanding yoga house overlooks snowy peaks, and timber-lined chalets hold curved wooden loungers for resting.
Restaurant
Orangerie
The glass-roofed conservatory centers on an indoor fountain, with exposed timber beams and hanging filament bulbs.
At the table
Hausbar Der Alchemist mixes cocktails under a starry ceiling, and timber dining rooms serve regional alpine cuisine.
How it began
The estate began as a working mountain farm, before the family built their own ski lifts on the slopes in 1976.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.

It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.

Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.

Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
