Very romantic, very homey, perfect to do good to body and soul for a weekend with a soothing feeling of home.
Location
The hotel is located in the tranquil community of Eugendorf in the north of Salzburg, about 15 minutes' drive from the state capital. The location offers guests the opportunity to balance their vacation - recreation in nature can be on the program as well as the many cultural highlights of the city. And you can also reach the Wallersee lake within a quarter of an hour by car.
Ambience

The larch wood floor creaks softly underfoot, the curtains with Old Salzburg hand printing open out onto the lush green garden. There, green chairs are spread around the tables, above them the trees rustle in the wind. The atmosphere in the house is relaxed and friendly, the ambience traditional and homey. As a guest, you almost have the feeling of staying with good friends. Genuinely Austrian, just perfect for feeling at home and arriving.
In the historic four-star hotel, you also feel a little transported back in time. Dreams itself into old, wild-romantic homeland films. But the history of the hotel takes you back much further: the farm was founded as a country inn as early as 1390, and in the 17th century the owner gave it its present name. For a long time the estate was run as an inn and changed its owners over the centuries, today it is run by Gerhard Martin Schönbauer.
Rooms & suites

Salzburg tradition has found its way into the guest rooms of the house: The rooms and apartments are classically furnished in Austrian country house style, with light solid wood furniture from local carpenters and high-quality natural materials. Among them, for example, hand-woven sheep's wool carpets. Old, dark wooden cross beams span the ceiling, and some of the rooms have their own balconies.
Gastronomy
In the restaurant with a chic guest garden, traditional cooking is the order of the day - typical Salzburg dishes make for an excellent snack. © Hotel Holznerwirt
There is no minibar in the hotel, but the cuisine in the restaurant with its romantic garden has made a name for itself beyond the country's borders. And rightly so! Typical Austrian food with a lot of style is served. Food is cooked with directly from the region, partially even from own bio agriculture. In addition, there are fine wines and cordial service.
A schnitzel may not be missing: For the ingredients, the host falls back on organic quality and products from his own farm. © Hotel Holznerwirt
