Nestled between the Salzkammergut and Ennstal you will find the Hotel DER HECHL in the picturesque town of Tauplitz. With the Grimming Massif within reach, surrounded by meadows and alpine pastures, the family-run hotel invites you to relax and enjoy. The connection to nature and tradition as well as the warmth of the people exude a feeling of being with friends. Enjoy the SPA area with heated outdoor pool (summer and winter), Finnish sauna, bio sauna, steam bath, infrared cabin, 2 relaxation rooms, fitness room and a tea bar. Traditional Austrian cuisine is served in the à la carte restaurant. Our Hechl hut, in picturesque surroundings, is 9km from the hotel. Open Thursday to Sunday (June-October).
