The property also captivates guests with genuine warmth, true to its “Herzwärts” philosophy, award-winning gourmet cuisine, and four thermal pools maintained at 32°C (2 indoor and 2 outdoor).

A vacation home for

people with heart—warmth can be so contagious! A welcoming smile upon arrival, the sensation of being personally attended to in every detail, all enveloped in an uplifting holiday ambiance: What the family-run 4-star-superior Verwöhnhotel Bismarck in Bad Hofgastein embodies each day is a rarity in today’s world. “Herzwärts” is the philosophy that has made this hotel a vacation home for so many warm-hearted people for 60 years—surrounded by a blend of casual luxury and Austrian coziness. To mark the anniversary, the Wendler family, who own the hotel, has invested heavily: The main building now features a modern Alpine façade, balconies, and new thermal insulation. Crowning the ensemble are four new rooftop junior suites where spaciousness, serenity and the distinctive Bismarck spirit coalesce, with spectacular views of the Gastein mountains included. The pièce de résistance is the new Spa Rooftop Junior Suite, complete with a private panoramic sauna. Active guests can also enjoy a generously proportioned new yoga and activity studio.

A Vacation for All Generations

The Verwöhnhotel Bismarck strikes the perfect balance to keep all generations happy. The four thermal pools (32°C)—two indoor and two outdoor—are perfect for weather-independent swimming fun and are separated into quiet and family areas, as are the lounging areas in the 7,000 m² Enchanted Garden. Together with the restaurant’s ingenious seating arrangement, this ensures a relaxing vacation for everyone and makes sure that both those seeking peace and quiet and families feel equally at home. …and all of this right in the heart of Gastein, a paradise for nature and hiking: Here, four adventure-filled mountains await, along with diverse hiking and biking trails, mountain yoga, golf, e-bike tours, and creative nature experiences—from concerts in the forest to alpine pastures. All of this makes the Gastein Valley a summer paradise for active travelers and connoisseurs
