Between the imposing Kitzsteinhorn glacier, a breath-taking

mountain backdrop and the crystal-clear Lake Zell, your unique

holiday domicile is located in the mountain town of Zell am See:

the GRAND HOTEL **** S. A source of energy as exclusive as it is

cosy. A place for space and time. Enjoy the special location of our

establishment right next to shimmering blue Lake Zell and take in

the alpine elegance in the midst of amazing nature. We are

looking forward to making your holiday into a very special

experience you won’t forget!

WelcomeA WA R M

The Flögl family from Zell opens the

“Hotel am See” in 1878. Back then,

it is a small building. However, the

family is forced to file for bankruptcy

just one year later. In 1896, succes-

sors Carl and Therese Böhm breathe

new life into the hotel. Extensive

construction measures turn the ho-

tel into a magnificent promoterist

building and it is given the name

“Grandhotel am See”.

During the Second World War, the

building is used as a billet for the

US occupying power. Due to sev-

eral major blazes, it loses all sense

of comfort. In 1955, Karl Gram-

shammer purchases the ramshack-

le building for the symbolic sum of

one Austrian Schilling, and rebuilds

it in the style of the time. The hotel

is the setting for several films and

the “Grand” regains its popularity.

In 1965, however, the walls start to

crumble. A storm tide causes further

substantial damage.

1878–1896

1955–1965

G R A N D FA C T S

Depending on the season, around

120 members of staff are employed

at the GRAND HOTEL. Chef Bernd

Bereuter has been an important

member of staff for 25 years now.

The “Wunderbar” was located on

the sixth floor of the Imperial wing

between 1986 and 2000. Instead

of the bar, two luxury suites with a

fantastic view are now planned.

II.

With the installation of electric

light, modern luxury reigns in the

“Grandhotel am See”. During the

summer, 25,000 overnight stays are

recorded. In 1918, after the break it

was forced to take during the First

World War, the hotel is sold to Karl

Pischkittl and experiences a brief

upswing during the 1930s.

In 1984, the hotel is owned by a

Swedish timeshare company. First

of all it is completely demolished

and then rebuilt as a suite hotel,

maintaining its original promoterist

architecture. In 1995, the timeshare

company opens composition pro-

ceedings. The Holleis family buys

the Grand Hotel and the neigh-

bouring Clima Hotel, combing the

two to make the GRAND HOTEL

ZELL AM SEE.

1998–2003

Empress Elisabeth – known as

“Sisi” – visited Zell am See and

the Schmittenhöhe on 9 August

1885. Carl Haschke built the

Elisabethkapelle in memory of her

between 1904 and 1905.

Zell am See had a population of

around 1,000 and 3,000 hotel beds

between 1928 and 1930.

In 2008, an exclusive spa area is built

on the fourth and fifth storeys of

the wellness wing. The GRANDSPA

combines tradition with the zeit-

geist, and its magnificent panorama

views are breath-taking. The imperi-

al Kaisersaal restaurant is extended

on a large scale in 2014-2015, and

the lake bar is erected. A new un-

derground garage comprising 84

parking spaces is also built. A new

era is rung in at the start of 2016:

the Casino Austria opens its doors in

the wellness wing of the hotel.

In 1998, the hotel – with the sup-

port of the new Imperial Café-Bar –

is once again given a new lease of

life in the form of the good spirit of

old Austrian hotel culture. In 2003,

Dr Holleis gets the famous Austrian

artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser

to build the Österreichbrunnen in

the hotel garden.

Experience precious moments in our luxurious hideaway for those

in search of rest and relaxation. Where? In the heart of the estab-

lishment, the GRANDSPA. On the fourth and fifth floors, enjoy

a beautiful view and relax in the stylish spa and sauna complex

comprising Finnish sauna, herbal sauna, tepidarium, salt steam

bath, Turkish steam bath, infrared booth, spacious relaxation

rooms and a terrace with a lovely view of the lake. Take a relaxing

sweat bath in the sauna, then take a dip in the crystal-clear water

of Lake Zell and imbibe the force of nature that surrounds you.

The exclusive, private bathing beach with direct access to the

lake and a large sunbathing lawn delights its guests. Boasting a

lovely location on the tip of the peninsula, it invites you to enjoy

Crystal-clearmountain air.

A deep breath of clear mountain air between the blue sky, lush

green meadows and the earthy fragrance of the forests. The spe-

cial air which reigns amongst the impressive mountain backdrop

is not only a relief for most summiteers – it is proven to have a

positive influence on our health. The air on the mountain acts as a

tonic for the circulation and protects against heart disease. Why is

that? A holiday at high altitudes is the equivalent of a workout for

the heart. The low oxygen content of the air means that the heart

has to pump more blood through the body in order to provide it

with sufficient oxygen. The mountain air also has a positive effect

on those suffering from allergies. For all those wishing to lose a

couple of pounds: studies have proven that the mountain air sup-

presses the appetite. Take a deep breath and enjoy the healthy

effect of the mountain air!

The majestic mountains in Zell am See are a charm-

ing destination for all discerning alpinists. Countless

climbing routes and hiking paths take you through

the mountains and its multifaceted nature. Summer

cable cars make it easier to go on your alpine journey

of discovery. The adventurous can try their hand on a

downhill bike and fly across the trails downwards into

the valley. The highest e-motocross park in Austria

presents a special action highlight.

The adventure hiking path “Schmidolin’s Baptism of

Fire” is a very special hotspot for families. The idea is to

answer difficult questions, to pass daring tests of cour-

age and to master various tasks. Particularly adventurous

children try out “Schmidolin’s Feuerstuhl”, which is an

e-motocross trail for the little ones. Kids between the

ages of 6 and 14 whizz around safe roads on electric

bikes. Adults can also take a spin at an altitude of 1,400

metres above sea level – quite void of noise and envi-

ronmentally unfriendly emissions.

Countless sporting activities abound both on

and around the royal blue lake. Try your hand

at the trend sport of stand-up paddling, or

rent a boat for an exclusive romantic boat trip

with your loved one. Take advantage of the

gusts of wind and sail across Lake Zell or rent

a windsurf board and slide across the water

against the imposing mountain backdrop. Lei-

sure cyclists can admire the dreamlike, lovely

water from any one of the numerous cycling

paths which follow the shore of the lake. Or

take a stroll along the lakeside promenade

and enjoy the concealed, peaceful mooring

areas set in unspoilt nature.

Surrounded by the imposing mountains,

Lake Zell enjoys a sense of natural tranquillity

between the massive mountains over 3,000

metres. With its rich blueness and crystal-cle-

ar water with drinking water quality, it is a

unique source of energy in the middle of the

mountain town of Zell am See. That clear,

calm water has a special meaning for people

has already been acknowledged by dream

interpretation. If you dream about crystal-clear

water such as that of Lake Zell, you are at ease

with your emotions and are in harmony with

yourself. The most important prerequisite for

happiness, success and love.

Exclusivenatural gem.

In alpine tranquillity.

of discovery, you can ascend the glacier by

means of the Kitzsteinhorn cable car. Bearer

of the “Best Austrian summer cable car” seal,

it stands for the highest standard of quality,

regular strict inspections and a varied range

of offers. The Kitzsteinhorn has always had a

trailblazer and pioneer role, and is considered

a visionary model for all other glacier areas.

Following a refreshing hike on the glacier in

the alpine massif, be prepared to be lured by

Lake Zell down in the valley. Take a dip and

enjoy the unique combination of water in its

various forms.

Up the imposing summit, into breath-taking

nature. Surrounded by the highest peaks

the eye can see. A world in which mountains,

summits and eternal ice show themselves

from their most impenetrable sides. Both

mysterious and impressive. A paradise for

ramblers, experienced hikers and climbers

covers an area over 3,000 metres. The impres-

sive glacier is also the perfect setting for long

walks between the summits which take on an

icy shimmer. For a more gentle alpine journey
