STUNNING LAKE LOCATION MEETS AWARD-WINNING CUISINE

A true hideaway for connoisseurs and individualists, the four-star superior lake hotel DAS TRAUNSEE is located on a peninsula in Traunkirchen in the Salzkammergut – an idyllic location throughout where indulgent pampering awaits both the palate and the soul.

Start your day with a dip into Lake Traunsee, forget all your worries during a four-toque gourmet meal on the lake terrace, or indulge in a treatment at the Sea-Spa – whatever you fancy, Das Traunsee is the perfect place for a wonderful break. Nestled in the idyllic landscape of the Salzkammergut, the four-star hotel is run by the third generation of the Gröller family. It is located on a peninsula in the crystal-clear Traunsee in Traunkirchen, and all 40 modern rooms and suites feature marvellous lake views and a balcony. If you want to hop into the water straight from your room, just book the mini suite with direct lake access.

"The location of the historic town of Traunkirchen on the lake Traunsee is unique," enthuses host Wolfgang Gröller. "Guests of the Seehotel not only have a view of Austria's deepest lake, but also of the legendary Traunstein mountain. In summer and winter, the Salzkammergut offers not only culture, art and tradition, but also wonderful nature."

Crisp mountain air and picturesque views await. In the Salzkammergut region, nature speaks for itself and makes you want to climb the surrounding peaks. Whether you prefer challenging mountain hikes up Traunstein or Feuerkogel, or relaxed walks through Traunkirchen, there is something for everyone. You can also enjoy fabulous views of the impressive Traunstein mountain during a relaxing break from the hotel's own SeeSpa, with its bathing jetty and panoramic lake sauna.

The culinary heart of Das Traunsee is the Bootshaus restaurant, which has become a real gourmet hotspot since four-toque executive chef Lukas Nagl took the reins. Here, the tradition of Austrian cuisine is skilfully enriched with influences from different cultures. For Nagl, beauty is found in simplicity. "Do everything with heart, mind and hand", is his motto. His ‘Integration Kitchen’ concept is a great success: Nagl was recently awarded ‘Chef of the Year 2023’ by Gault Millau www.dastraunsee.at www.traunseehotels.at

The connection to the region is the backbone for both the cuisine and the ambiance of the hotel. Sophistication meets elegant simplicity – a true pilgrimage site for connoisseurs.
