Romantik Hotel Im Weissen Rössl

The Hotel

The location of Romantik Hotel Im Weissen Rössl is unique throughout the world and the hotel's surrounding scenery provided the backdrop for the famous musical The Sound of Music. Nine historic buildings form the hotel and offer a décor to suit all tastes, including everything from modern design to the elegant and traditional. Whether you are enjoying the views from the rooms, the restaurants or the Spa in the Lake, the wide open views of Lake Wolfgang and the magnificent mountains surrounding the crystal clear water make this one of the most beautiful spots on earth. The tremendous gift of nature, a fresh water lake with water of drinking quality, has been revitalized by your hosts with the introduction of a year round heated lake pool. The Lake Pool and the Rössl Pool, a heated outdoor whirlpool, are part of the 1,500m² large wellness area that is right beside the lake. This year the family-run establishment celebrates its 100th anniversary which promises several special treats for its guests.
