Description

Nestled among the peaks of the Bavarian Alps, the Klosterhof Alpine Hideaway & Spa is secluded on a sunny plateau. This exclusive location amidst nature creates a true oasis of peace and serenity, where guests' well-being is paramount.

The Färber couple has transformed the old 16th-century monastery farm into a stylish, luxurious hotel that offers its guests Alpine luxury and peaceful getaways. Thanks to the sustainably oriented renovation, the history of the old manor has remained alive and is reflected in numerous details of the furnishings and architecture. Traditional features, interior made of natural materials such as apple tree and Swiss stone pine wood and state-of-the-art technology as well as methods blend to create the overall image of the Klosterhof as a wellness and health hotel.
