Schloss Prielau Sketch
Karen's Review Of
Schloss Prielau:

The Schloss Prielau is an enchanting place to stay—absolute perfection. As you drive down a tree-lined lane from the lake, the first glimpse of Schloss Prielau comes into view winning your heart. The picture-perfect castle is a happy, four-story, cream-colored building with a steeply sloped slate roof, windows embraced by red-striped shutters, and a cute turret topped by a jaunty peak. It is no wonder that this is thought to be the castle in Sleeping Beauty—it looks like it belongs in a fairy tale. When your charming hostess, Anette Mayer, first saw the sadly neglected castle, she immediately fell in love and wanted to bestow a “sweet kiss” to bring it back to life. Anette & Andreas Mayer leased the property, moved from Munich, and after a superb restoration, have reopened the castle as a deluxe, small hotel. Anette manages the hotel while her husband, honored with 2 Michelin stars, oversees the excellent kitchen. The superb antiques remain, but everything else has been changed: the walls freshly painted, gorgeous fabrics throughout, new upholstery, new draperies, new carpets, excellent bathrooms installed, and fine linens. The dining rooms and lounges on the ground floor are stunning and each guestroom a decorator dream. The choice bedrooms are those that overlook the meadow, lake, and beyond to the soaring mountains. Enjoy a sauna or massage in their “Badehaus” or relax at their private beach on the lake.

Schlosshotels & Herrenhäuser Guide’s Description:
Schloss Prielau

Nestled in the wonderful Kötschachtal valley near Bad Gastein, in the immediate vicinity of the Hohe Tauern national park, one of the most famous hotels in the world has been providing top level hospitality for 100 years. The Blumschein’s family formula for success is based on the unique, heartfelt service and high convenience in the cosy, Austrian-style rooms.

A special focus of the Grüner Baum hotel is on culinary treats from the kitchen and the cellar that can be enjoyed in the newly designed restaurant, in the garden under old chestnuts trees or in one of the cosy parlours.

The Grüner Baum offers spa and wellness facilities to suit every taste, including an inddor pool with thermal water, sauna, steam bath, massages and different treatments.

In the surroundings there are hiking paths and an 18-hole golf course (5 min. from the hotel) in summer and a wonderful ski resort and cross-country trails in winter - all embedded in incredibly marvellous natural landscapes.

Hospitality provided by family Blumschein since 100 years, 5 stars service and authentic Austrian hospitality, wonderfully located in the Kötschach valley near the national park Hohe Tauern, in-house thermal spring

When we first visited Schloss Prielau in Feb 2008 for a long weekend, we fell in love with this romantic boutique hotel from the moment we set foot in it, and before we left, we had booked it for our wedding. We returned with the future mother-in-laws just before Christmas in 2008 and they too duly fell under Schloss Prielau’s beguiling spell.

In Feb 2009, we filled the entire Schloss ( including the Fischerhaus) with 25 of our closest friends and family for our wedding. Anette arran...
