In the historic hotel, where high society enjoyed their summer retreats over 100 years ago, today a loving country house style meets understated luxury. Intellectuals such as Sigmund Freud and Viktor Frankl were once guests at the Knappenhof. The unique location at the foot of the Rax mountain invited then as now to exciting explorations of the area. The varied leisure activities on offer, from hiking to biking and the top-class cultural offerings, allow you to forget everyday life and provide new energy and inspiration.
Why a visit to the Knappenhof is particularly worthwhile:
Food is not only a pleasure, but also an expression of culture: the kitchen team brings regional delicacies to the plate in an informal way and with unique combinations.
The best location in the middle of a hiking paradise at the foot of the Rax: Hike up the famous Törlweg trail to the Rax, just as Sigmund Freud once did.
Country house style meets understated luxury - the Knappenhof remains true to its style and ensures cozy relaxation with elegant designs and fine fabrics.
Sleep in deluxe rooms and suites with attention to detail and the highest level of luxury such as a coffee machine, first-class body care products, high-speed internet, cozy towels and bathrobes and much more.
From the unique sun terrace (described by A-List as one of the most beautiful sun terraces in Lower Austria) you can gaze out into the greenery while sipping a coffee or tea, reading a book and listening to the birdsong.
Cultural enjoyment within easy reach: the Reichenau Festival and the Kultur.Sommer.Semmering festival provide outstanding cultural entertainment not far from the Knappenhof.
