What do we have to add to that?!

Experience the deafening sounds of silence and rushing streams in an alpine sanctuary of breathtaking beauty and possibilities. From the outside it's a classic mountain resort, but upon closer inspection, it's a different sort of Alpine hotel, a mix of old-world Bavaria and high-end luxury that can credibly claim the title of "cultural hideaway." After all, there's not just some token art gallery — but a gorgeous old ballroom, two libraries, and a stunning modern concert hall. They celebrate culinary culture here as well: Christoph Rainer's Luce d'Oro holds two MICHELIN stars.
