A house with a living history

Genuine and real

What is special about our Hotel Tirolensis? It is our home.
An expression of our philosophy of life and our personality. Family and love form the strong foundation on which our house rests. Values that can be felt throughout the hotel. Far away from trends and architectural designs, we live our own idea of a hotel. With a unique charm and authentic character.

How it all began:
A journey through time

The Hotel Tirolensis was opened in 1978, and made history.
At that time, it was the only 5-star hotel in the whole of Burggrafenamt which made it a centre of attraction for many international air travellers. In 1982, a fourth house was built to expand the room capacity. Only one year later, the hotel fell victim to unforeseen interest rate rises and went bankrupt. In 1986, it was acquired by Metro and underwent many management changes until 1995. In the same year, everything took a turn for the better: Our family took over the management of the 3-star hotel. 2005 marked the change to a 4-star hotel and from then on, things started getting better: A lot of renovations and redesigns took place until 2017, which gave the Hotel Tirolensis a new shine.

2018, a big dream comes true:
We buy the Hotel Tirolensis!

2024 is already coming to an end… but for us, it’s a big new beginning. We are inaugurating a new era for Tirolensis: with the recent renovation, we are taking an important step and bringing our hotel to a new dimension. Welcome to the 4-star superior Hotel Tirolensis!
Nine exclusive, completely new suites await you, the perfect combination of comfort and design. Additionally, the expanded Garden Spa promises pure relaxation, and last but not least, the modern fitness area and a bright yoga room. Thanks to all these innovations, your stay will be even more varied, relaxing, and full of events. Of course, our goal remains the same: to offer you a place where you feel completely at ease and want to return to often.
The future of Tirolensis? We will write it together, for unforgettable moments that will last over time.
