Hotel Unterwirt takes seminars and workshops for up to 25 participants in its seminar room, and parties and weddings for up to 80 guests in the Unterwirtsalm, its alpine hut, with bedrooms and a spa in the main house. The four-star superior hotel stands on Kirchplatz, the church square of Reit im Winkl, a village in the Chiemgau Alps of Upper Bavaria close to the Austrian border.
Seminars and company events
The seminar room is wood-paneled, air-conditioned and set apart from the restaurant, so a working group stays undisturbed. It takes up to 25 participants. Equipment covers a screen, a projector, an overhead projector, a whiteboard, a pinboard and a flipchart, and Wi-Fi is free. The sunny terrace is a few steps away for breaks.
Seminar packages can include coffee, drinks and snacks for the morning and afternoon breaks, with lunch served in the hotel restaurant. The hotel builds custom packages on request, which suits a two-day retreat that mixes work sessions with time in the mountains or the spa. In the evening, the Unterwirtsalm can host a team dinner or a company party.
Weddings and receptions
The Unterwirtsalm is offered for wedding receptions, a wedding menu and dancing afterward. It holds up to 80 guests, and from 50 guests the hut can be used for dancing and a party. The team helps with the arrangements, from flowers to the wedding cake, and offers the couple a special package on request. The hotel bedrooms are about two minutes away on foot, so guests can stay the night. Birthdays and family celebrations use the same hut.
Rooms and capacities
Two spaces are published for events. The seminar room takes up to 25 participants; the hotel does not give its floor area or layouts. The Unterwirtsalm, just outside the village center, takes up to 80 guests, with dancing from 50 and a buffet set up inside. The hotel also has a restaurant, a bar and a garden terrace, used for meals during a stay.
Accommodation
The hotel has rooms and suites in several categories, though it does not publish the total. At the Alm there is also a holiday apartment of 84 square meters for up to six people. Hotel guests can use four pools open all year, a Kneipp basin, a sauna area, a fitness room, a day spa and the Alpenholistik spa for massages and cosmetic treatments, plus a lawn for lying out in summer.
Catering
The hotel kitchen runs the Restaurant Unterwirt, the bar and the garden terrace. For seminar groups it provides the break service and lunch. For parties at the Unterwirtsalm, it prepares a buffet and serves the drinks chosen by the host.
History and setting
The Unterwirt traces its roots back to the 14th century, at the center of the village next to the church. Reit im Winkl lies in a high valley of the Chiemgau Alps, known for skiing in winter and hiking in summer, which gives a group options for an afternoon outdoors.
