Active & wellness hotel in Austria
Active orwellness holiday?
A question that is absolutely superfluous at the Falkenstein. You can have it all at the 4-star hotel nearby the Kitzsteinhorn Glacier: Action AND relaxation. Austrian tradition AND modern lifestyle.
While all the possibilities between mountain and valley are open to you, body, mind and soul follow the temperament of nature – on mountain bike tours amidst magnificent landscapes, on action-packed skiing adventures. Skiing is even possible from October to June in the Zell am See – Kaprun ski area. The only question that remains is where to relax in the wellness area afterwards.

The Falkenstein on tripadvisorBy far the best hotel we’ve ever stayed in – and absolutely perfect for families with small children. From the room to the incredibly delicious food and the wonderfully relaxing massage, everything was just perfect. We’d especially like to highlight the exceptionally friendly waiters who made our stay even more enjoyable.
The hotel is ideal for families, couples, or friends. We will definitely be coming back more often. Many thanks – and our warmest regards to the chef!

Family Rietzschel 2026 / Holiday as a couple
I’m absolutely delighted with Hotel Falkenstein! The interior design is beautiful – a successful blend of modern style and charming vintage furniture. Throughout the hotel, you’ll discover lovingly designed details that bring a smile to your face – from the reception area all the way to the rooms.
Our room was especially lovely: modern, cozy, and with its own unique and distinctive character. You immediately feel at home. Breakfast was also excellent, offering a pleasantly wide selection of fresh, homemade dishes such as granola, chia pudding, and omelets. Everything tasted wonderful.
The beautiful spa area invites you to relax, and the natural swimming pond is a true highlight. The location is ideal: the Kitzsteinhorn ski area is just a few minutes away, and the center of Kaprun is also within easy walking distance.
We had a fantastic stay at this wonderful hotel – I truly recommend it from the bottom of my heart.

Everything was just perfect! A generous breakfast with something for every age group. Attentive service, a fantastic pool set against a breathtaking backdrop, and many impressive hiking trails right on the doorstep. Highly recommended!
Julia Jeschke 2025 / Holiday with family
A very beautiful hotel with charm, distinguished by its friendly staff and wonderful atmosphere. Everything is well maintained – a perfect stay with sauna, swimming pool, and restaurant. Just a few meters to the ski bus, which runs frequently to the Kitzsteinhorn. Great slopes, lifts, sunshine, and powder snow – what more could we wish for?
