Hotels

Accommodation options for every taste

Hotels are the classic form of accommodation with the widest range on offer. Thanks to the star classification, you know exactly what to expect and can find the right hotel that meets your requirements in terms of facilities and price. Hotels are usually equipped with a reception and breakfast buffet and offer single, double and family rooms. We give you an overview of the best hotels in your favorite region.


The big world of hotels

Whether you are looking for a base for day trips or an integral part of your adventure, there is a hotel to suit every taste and budget - from classic city hotels to unusual accommodation in the wilderness.

City hotels often provide the perfect base for your explorations. Look for hotels near train stations or bus stops to get to the surrounding area quickly. Many modern city hotels have adapted to the needs of active vacationers: Bike rental, trekking maps of the surrounding area or even drying rooms for wet equipment are no longer a rarity.

But don't forget the options offered by special outdoor and adventure hotels. Think of rustic mountain huts with panoramic views, eco-lodges in the jungle or floating hotels on tranquil lakes. These accommodations are often more than just a place to sleep - they are the starting point for unforgettable experiences.

Many of these special hotels offer guided activities such as hikes, mountain bike tours or canoe rentals directly. Some even organize workshops on topics such as wilderness survival or local nature.

Look out for sustainable accommodation when making your choice. Both city hotels and remote lodges are increasingly focusing on environmental friendliness - from energy efficiency to local sourcing. This way you can keep your ecological footprint small, even on vacation.

Whether you opt for an ordinary hotel or an extraordinary accommodation, make use of the staff's knowledge. They can often give you valuable tips on local outdoor activities, hidden trails or the best viewpoints.

Hotels for all

Family hotels often offer spacious rooms or suites that provide enough space for all family members. Many have separate sleeping areas for parents and children, so that everyone has their own retreat.

A highlight of many family hotels is the extensive entertainment program. Experienced supervisors ensure that there is never a dull moment. For outdoor-loving families, there are special offers such as guided hikes, climbing parks or mountain bike tours. So you can explore nature together and experience unforgettable adventures.

For many of you, your dog is a fully-fledged member of the family and can of course come on vacation with you. Pet-friendly hotels have specialized in exactly this and welcome your four-legged friends warmly. In these hotels, you will often find special dog rooms or suites that are equipped with robust floors and easy-to-clean materials.

Many also provide dog baskets, bowls and sometimes even toys. Some accommodations even offer a dog-sitting service if you want to do something without your four-legged friend. The spacious outdoor areas of many pet-friendly hotels are a particular highlight.

If you are looking for rest and relaxation, wellness hotels are just the place for you. These oases of peace offer everything your heart desires to escape from everyday life and recharge your batteries. The heart of every wellness hotel is the spa area. Here you will find a variety of saunas and steam baths to detoxify your body and strengthen your immune system. Relax in the bio sauna or sweat in the Finnish sauna - everyone will find their preferred option here.

Many wellness hotels have extensive pool landscapes, both indoors and outdoors. Another highlight is the wide range of treatments and massages on offer at wellness hotels. From classic relaxation massages and Ayurveda treatments to innovative beauty programs, there is something for everyone.
