About Falkensteiner Schlosshotel Velden

Since its construction by Baron Bartholomäus Khevenhüller (1590–1603), Schloss Velden has become an iconic retreat, renowned far beyond Austria’s borders as a gathering place for nobility, artists, and high society. After a devastating fire in 1762 destroyed much of the original Renaissance castle, it was rebuilt in 1890 by Viennese industrialist Ernst Wahliss, who transformed it into a hotel.

Throughout the 20th century, the castle hosted countless prominent figures and gained fame as a filming location. Since 2012, the hotel has been operated by the Falkensteiner Group, and is now part of the prestigious "Leading Hotels of the World."

Under the leadership of Thomas Haslauer, the hotel continues to deliver bespoke holiday experiences, staying true to the family-run Falkensteiner Group’s ethos.

A highlight is the hotel's Aquapura Lake SPA, offering an immersive wellness experience. Unwind in the expert hands of our "spa master," or relax in the bio sauna, infrared sauna, or steam bath. The indoor and outdoor pools, paired with plenty of lounging areas, offer the perfect setting for a day of relaxation.

[...] The friendly staff certainly makes the hotel one of the best in Europe. Spacious, modern suites. What is offered here for breakfast would typically only be found at a Sunday brunch elsewhere. The dinner is at a Michelin-star level. [...] Superb.
