Natur- und Wellnesshotel Höflehner: greetings from the front desk

On a sun plateau above Haus im Ennstal, at 1,117 metres and with an unobstructed view of the Dachstein massif, lies the Natur- und Wellnesshotel Höflehner. The family-run four-star-superior house has made a name for itself in the Schladming-Dachstein region as one of the most consistent longevity and wellness addresses in Austria — named “Longevity & Wellness Hotel of the Year” by Gault&Millau in 2026.

5,000 m² of wellness at altitude. The spa stretches over 5,000 m²: a 25-metre sports pool, heated pools, a natural pond, a whirlpool on the roof and a luxurious infinity whirlpool, plus an Alpine sauna village with twelve saunas. Mountain air, calm and the Dachstein view form the setting for a programme that relies on exercise, regeneration and healthy nutrition — the longevity idea runs through the whole house.

Mountain and movement. On the plateau hiking and touring trails begin right at the house; the Schladming-Dachstein ski region with the Hauser Kaibling lies on the doorstep. The Höflehner combines active mountain days with a mountain climate, healthy cuisine and a spa that wants to be more than recreation — namely a contribution to a longer, healthier life.
