Authentic,
family-run and personal

The Kathrein & Gritzner Family

More than just a place to stay. We are a proud family-run business where hospitality comes first. Our story also goes back many decades – from a small inn to the wellness hotel you see today. What matters most to us is that the family spirit that shapes the character of our establishment also includes our guests. And that is something you can truly feel.

We have always done our best to create an authentic atmosphere of relaxation and calm. Here you can unwind and leave everyday life behind. As a guest at Hotel Bergfrieden in Fiss, surrounded by a welcoming oasis with genuine Alpine charm, you are sure to feel right at home.

With heart and soul
