Materials
Natural Wood
Our aparthotel is primarily made of wood. Since our family has owned a carpentry business for over 80 years, we have a special love for the raw material wood. This natural building material gives the hotel a unique, cozy atmosphere. In the apartments, in particular, the wood used in the floors, walls, and living areas creates a warm and "pleasantly scented" ambiance. The four main types of wood used in the hotel are spruce, pine, oak, and maple.
SPRUCE
Spruce trees are evergreen and can grow up to 60 meters tall, living for as long as 600 years. The trunk diameter can reach up to 1 meter, with a maximum of 2.5 meters. Making up around 60% of Austria's productive forests, spruce is the most important native tree species. Spruce contains essential oils and resins, which give it a pleasant scent.
PINE
The pine is a species from the family of conifers. Its natural habitat includes the Alps and the Carpathians. The tree can grow up to 25 meters tall and live for up to 1,000 years. The heartwood, which is initially reddish and later turns red-brown, has a strong, aromatic scent due to its high content of essential oils and resins, which are known to have blood pressure and heart rate-lowering effects. A specialty is pine schnapps, made from the tree's cones.
