Feel the Murauer SehnsuchtsZeit...
Welcome to our family-run hotel in Styria. In the middle of the medieval old town of Murau - on the hillside below Murau Castle - our hotel is in a particularly quiet location. And yet only a stroll away from the most beautiful excursion destinations in the region.
What once began as a simple Restaurant has developed over generations into a lovingly managed 4-star hotel with a wide range of room categories. Here, tradition meets modernity, regionality meets warmth - and all this in a hotel that has stood for Styrian hospitality for around 300 years.
This is where your personal time-out begins...

Rooms with character
Our rooms are as varied as our guests. From the small Restaurant on the former Kothgasse, a stylish hotel has been created, which is divided into a 3-star and a 4-star area.
- For transients with a small budget for accommodation but a desire for delicious food, the budget rooms 3* are ideal!
- For holidaymakers looking for relaxation we recommend the Murau Rooms 4* and the Hotel Rooms 4*.
All rooms are in the same house, but each one tells its own story. Some traditional & cozy, others modern & bright - and all a retreat with a real feel-good atmosphere.
