Hotel Schloss Fuschl


Overview

Welcome to the enchanting world of Schloss Fuschl. Situated just a Mozart serenade from the City of Salzburg, this fairytale chateau overlooks one of the grandest lakes in the Salzkammergut region. Built in 1450 as a hunting lodge, it was once the summer residence of the Archbishops of Salzburg. The castle became renowned for its location – made famous in the movie “The Sound of Music,” and by the legendary “Sissi” films with Romy Schneider. Associated with aristocrats, empresses and cinema stars, it has long been recognized as the number-one hideaway resort in Austria. Highlights include new restaurants, a luxurious spa and a unique collection of paintings by Old Masters.

Dining In

The award-winning gourmet restaurant Imperial offers courageously daring haute cuisine. Magnificent and truly royal, the Schloss Restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner overlooking the lake. The legendary lakeside terrace offers quality and service of the highest order. For lunch and dinner the restaurant serves typical Austrian delicacies and fresh fish from the hotel’s own fishery.

Recreation and Health

The spacious, yet intimate, Schloss Fuschl SPA is completely dedicated to your relaxation, offering an indoor pool, steam bath, sauna and fitness area. The very latest equipment and services await in a truly elegant fin-de-siècle setting, overlooking the lake. Enjoy the outdoor Jacuzzi – or in summer, an invigorating massage on the jetty. Your privacy is assured, for the mountain nearby is owned by the hotel. Swimming, mountain biking, Nordic walking and skiing - in the surrounding area. Fuschl is also a paradise for golfers with a 9-hole course right next to the hotel and no less than 10 fine courses within the Salzkammergut region.

Features

Great love of detail and elegance characterize the ambience of all 110 rooms, suites and lake cottages. The unique collection of Old Masters’ paintings lends a singular air of grandeur. Light, warm colors dominate the interior of all elegant Deluxe rooms with park view and Grand Deluxe rooms with lake view. The seven exclusive Tower Suites, which include the famous Sissi-Suite, allow guests to live in authentic Renaissance, Empire, Baroque or Biedermeier style. Our Lake Cottages comprise a lovely ensemble along the lakeshore and provide a privileged atmosphere with a terrace, private lake access, sauna and an open fire-place.
