The hype
Guests are universally blown away by the new spa and food quality, often calling it the best wellness experience of their lives.
Hotel Krallerhof
$450-850/ notte
Prenota se You want the most visually stunning spa in the Alps and don't mind paying a premium for architectural bragging rights.
Perché piace così tanto
- The 'Atmosphere' spa is an architectural marvel with a 50m infinity pool floating in a natural lake
- Exceptional 'Genuss-Pension' food program that rivals standalone fine dining
- Ski-in/ski-out access to the Steinbergbahn lift makes winter logistics effortless
In sintesi: A world-class wellness temple attached to a quirky, art-filled traditional hotel that sometimes feels like two different eras colliding.
Recensito da @Jeremyaustiin: I spent hours floating in this heated infinity pool watching the steam rise against the snowy Alps. It feels completely surreal to be this warm while surrounded by winter. If you need a total reset, this place is it.
Cosa hanno detto gli ospiti che hanno soggiornato qui
Reality check
Long-time guests note a jarring contrast between the ultra-modern spa and the older, rustic sections of the main hotel.
- You are a wellness junkie who prioritizes spa facilities over room modernity
- You appreciate high-concept architecture (Hadi Teherani designed the spa)
- You travel with a dog and want a hotel that actually welcomes them (dining allowed in Kaminstube)
Pulizia e manutenzione
9.5
- Housekeeping: Impeccable. Twice daily service (turn-down included) is standard.
- Bathroom hygiene: Spotless marble and glass. No reports of mold or grime in recent verified reviews.
- Maintenance: Generally excellent, though one Dec 2025 review noted gym maintenance. The new spa is pristine.
- Linens & towels: High quality, though one guest complained they weren't '5-star' enough (likely an outlier).
- Odors & scents: Fresh alpine air and subtle wood/herbal scents in the spa. No musty odors reported.

Genio delle richieste camera – copia e incolla
“I would appreciate a room in the Fürstenhof wing or a renovated Colour Suite. We prefer a view of the natural bathing lake and would like to avoid the older 'Hesse' style heavy-wood rooms if possible.”
FAQ e consigli nascosti
Tutto ciò che vuoi davvero sapere prima di prenotare.
Is the spa really naked?
Yes, the sauna areas in 'Atmosphere' are strictly textile-free (nude) and co-ed. The pools usually allow swimwear, but read the signs carefully.
Is the food included?
Yes, the 'Genuss-Pension' includes a massive breakfast buffet, afternoon snack (soup/cakes), and a multi-course gourmet dinner.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes, dogs are welcome (€40/night). Uniquely, you can even dine with them in the 'Kaminstube' area so they don't have to stay alone in the room.
Is it ski-in/ski-out?
Yes, the Steinbergbahn gondola is right next door, and you can ski back to the hotel. There's also a private beginner lift.
Is there air conditioning?
Not in all rooms. The newer suites have climate control, but older rooms rely on the fresh mountain air (which is usually sufficient).
How far is it from Salzburg?
About a 1.5 to 2-hour drive or train ride. The hotel offers a shuttle from the Leogang train station.
