The Hills are Alive at Schloss Fuschl
Escape to Austria this summer with special offers from Schloss Fuschl, the castle hotel of your dreams that will make you feel as though you’ve been dropped into the scenery of The Sound of Music.
Twenty minutes outside of the beautiful Austrian city of Salzburg, you’ll find the magical sight of castle hotel Schloss Fuschl beside the turquoise waters of Lake Fuschl. This unique oasis was built in 1450 as a hunting lodge, and all these years later, it’s still enveloped in the charm of its royal past.
With incredible special offers for stays until the end of June, this makes the perfect last-minute European getaway. If you can’t sneak away so soon, never fear. Schloss Fuschl is open year-round, and Poe Travel will design a customized itinerary to incorporate your stay at this atmospheric lakeside castle.
Welcome to Schloss Fuschl
Schloss Fuschl once played host to the Archbishops of Salzburg, which explains its splendor. This legendary fairytale chateau has become famous in recent years because it is situated in the Sound of Music region, and the banks of Lake Fuschl also featured in the Sissi films with Romy Schneider.
The 104 guest rooms, deluxe suites, and lakeside chalets of this Austrian luxury hotel combine European elegance with modern extravagance. You’ll find an art collection featuring the Old Masters and glittering chandeliers, creating a feeling of majesty and opulence.
Wine & Dine
The Castle Restaurant, which has been awarded three toques, is helmed by Executive Chef Johannes Fuchs. This is the place for fresh, seasonal Austrian produce that celebrates international trends. The six-member sommelier team is ready to pair the best wines from their 1,400-bottle cellar, so it’s no wonder this hotel has earned the title of “Best Wine Hotel in Austria” in years past!
The Schloss Bar & Cigar Lounge is the place to indulge in the Austrian coffee house culture. With regional specialties on offer, tradition and modernity blend seamlessly. Along with classic cocktails, you’ll also find trendsetting “infused spirits” and healthy concoctions such as a Matcha Up and teas with a creative touch.
In the Castle Fishery, savor whole roasted trout and char fresh from Lake Fuschl. The Beach Club offers breathtaking views with light, summery dishes and drinks with a hint of molecular gastronomy. On Fridays, you’ll find cigars and rum with cured ham and luxury chocolates. Wine connoisseurs will flock to The Wine Shop, located in the historic castle tower, for uncomplicated international classics, Mediterranean tapas, and more.
Fill Your Days
At such a relaxing, romantic location, it only makes sense to pay a visit to the spa. The Schloss Fuschl Spa is spacious and at the same time intimate, featuring the latest and greatest equipment and services overlooking the calm side of the lake, offering peace and relaxation year-round. Along with treatment rooms, the spa also features a sauna, fitness room, and indoor pool.
Outside, wellness lovers and outdoor enthusiasts can drink their fill, with both culinary delights and sporting thrills to be found in the natural wonders of the Salzkammergut region. In the summer, why not try tobogganing? Golfers will rejoice at the hotel’s onsite nine-hole course and the choice from ten nearby 18-hole golf courses. A private driver can be arranged to take you out into the Austrian Alps, or you can try your hand at fishing for trout in Lake Fuschl. In the winter, Schloss Fuschl is the perfect place to ski.
Our top tip for vintage car enthusiasts is to request a chauffeured drive in one from the hotel’s impressive fleet. Talk about exploring Austria in style!
