The chalet hotel far exceeded our high expectations.  Impeccable design and high quality furnishings, from the comfortable beds to the well-appointed kitchen to many comfortable places to lounge.  Our favorite was the front porch overlooking the lovely village of Mariazell.   Very quiet location. Excellent breakfast delivered at your chosen time, including gluten free and vegan/vegetarian options as needed.  Quality espresso maker and coffee beans.  Very helpful owner Helga and manager Lukas, who provided excellent restaurant and hiking recommendations.  This region of Austria is mainly forest and not very populated so excellent hiking and biking with few people.  Lovely hikes in “Austria’s Grand Canyon” just 20 minutes away by car.  We very much hope to return, perhaps in the winter.  This place is just waiting to be discovered but for my selfish reasons, I hope it is not!  (One note -it’s on the side of the mountain, with a steep road to it.  Walking to the village is quite steep but you can drive or get a ride if that is better for you.  The chalets also have 3 levels so steps.). Last note - the e bikes we rented from the hotel were top quality with strong batteries - we rode a lot of vertical and didn’t come close to the end of the battery.  Great trails are available from the hotel’s property.
