About Sendlhofer's

Sendlhofer’s is a design-led, family-run Alpine lifestyle hotel in Gastein, just south of Salzburg —right in the heart of the Hohe Tauern National Park.

Here, relaxed Austrian hospitality meets a Nature Spa powered by genuine thermal springs and extensive gardens for barefoot mornings, sporty activities, and starry nights. Evenings spill into LUKE’S Wohnzimmer, their creative “Alpine tapas” restaurant, where ingredients come from a tight local radius (often within 30 km / 18 mi), and an all-Austrian bar, serving exclusively Austrian wines and spirits —celebrating producers, farmers, and friends from the region. Regular WINE & DINE nights invite you to evenings with celebrated guest chefs and award-winning Austrian winemakers.

Sendlhofer’s has been run by the same family since 1928. In 2020, siblings Lukas and Martina Sendlhofer, together with Eva Goldmann, reimagined the historic spa house into a contemporary Alpine lifestyle retreat — keeping Gastein’s thermal tradition at its core while putting regionality and sustainability front and center. 

It’s the feeling of being rooted in place—close to nature, close to local partners, and close to the real Salzburg-land way of life.
