Hotel Schwanen

Our recommendations

Whether it is goat cheese with wild garlic au gratin, saddle of lamb with fried Jerusalem artichokes, or dandelion mousse on raspberry sauce: the cuisine at Hotel Schwanen, located directly on Bizau’s Kirchplatz, is not only exceedingly creative, but also exceedingly healthy. Guests can enjoy not only traditionally Austrian delicacies, but also dishes based on the recipes passed down by the famous German writer, composer, and abbess Hildegard von Bingen. No matter what the guest selects, the meal is guaranteed to have the high quality that earned the Hotel Schwanen fourteen points from the renowned Gault Millau dining guide, and it is served either in the old parlour, in the modern restaurant, or in the picturesque garden. And if you have no desire to go out after this sumptuous feast, you can withdraw to one of the newly redesigned rooms of this 4-star hotel.

Here, as well, great emphasis has been placed on creating a natural atmosphere with a regional touch. In addition to the large windows affording views of the surrounding mountains, the rooms also are furnished with Swiss stone pine from a local workshop as well as furniture from craftsman of the Bregenzerwald. Particularly health-conscious guests can take advantage of the special fasting or detox weeks. Gourmets will prefer the Schwanen Cooking Classes, and for a true dining adventure, try the "Wild Women” menu, with which the two female chefs guide you through their kitchen in seven light courses.
