The Hochberghaus Resort, on the Kasberg above Grünau im Almtal in Upper Austria, hosts seminars, workshops and team retreats in a seminar room for up to 20 people, and company parties, weddings and family celebrations in its festival hall. The house sits at about 1,200 m in the Salzkammergut and offers overnight stays, so a retreat can run over one or two nights.
Seminars and company events
The hotel presents its seminar offer as a retreat on the Klausuralm. The seminar room holds up to 20 people, has free choice of seating and can be divided. It has an outside balcony and direct access to the forest, and it is equipped with a projector, a sound system, a flip chart, moderation materials and fast WLAN. Next to it is an event lounge in an alpine hut style, with a stage and a tiled-stove corner. The lounge can be used for breakout groups, an open-space session, a cafeteria or an evening event. The hotel recommends at least one or two overnight stays and describes formats from a one-day session to a week-long program, including workshops, trainings, presentations and team building. Guests can add the forest sauna and massages, and a vital breakfast is offered.
Weddings and receptions
The site presents a mountain wedding at 1,200 m, with room for a large wedding party. A festival hall is available for weddings, eve-of-wedding parties, family celebrations and company events. The hotel says it provides catering, live music on the stage, overnight stays for guests and a late breakfast the next morning, so nobody has to travel home at night.
Rooms and capacities
The seminar room is the only space with a stated capacity: up to 20 people. The event lounge adjoins it, and the festival hall serves larger celebrations. The official pages read do not give a capacity for the lounge or the hall, so organisers should ask for room plans and seating limits.
Accommodation
The hotel lists rooms and suites and offers online booking and inquiries. The number of bedrooms is not given in the pages read. The house positions itself for families and calls itself the first WALDNESS resort in Europe, with a forest sauna and a wellness area.
Catering
The kitchen serves its classic menu and a rustic WALDNESS cuisine with cheese dumplings and pan dishes, plus vegetarian and vegan options. A vital power breakfast is part of the seminar offer, and breaks can include homemade pastries and regional snacks. The restaurant also runs weekly dinners such as a ribs night on Wednesdays and a Sunday roast.
History and setting
The hotel lies on the Kasberg in the Almtal, with a sun terrace above the valley. Hikes start from the door, and the region offers climbing, a wildlife park and lakes. The site presents the quiet location and low noise as the main reason to hold a seminar here.
Getting there
The hotel advises arriving by rail and bus. A taxi, the Traunsteintaxi, carries guests the last stretch from the train or bus station to the house. Parking is free in front of the building. The address is Kasberg 1, 4645 Grünau im Almtal.
