“A wonderfully genuine hotel that reminds you what great hospitality looks like”
Hotel Rauter exemplifies classic hospitality in the best way. From the moment you step into the lobby, you feel like you’re in a genuine hotel: beautiful, atmospheric, full of character and impeccably maintained. The owner told me the hotel has stayed in the same family for 12 generations, since the 1600s, and you can truly sense that history, care and pride throughout the entire place. The spa facilities are top‑class, featuring indoor and outdoor pools, a sauna, a steam bath, an infrared sauna and relaxation areas, all beautifully kept and offering fantastic mountain views. Breakfast is equally impressive, with a huge selection and extraordinary attention to detail. Most importantly, the staff are genuinely helpful and welcoming. I’ve stayed here twice now, and for the price this hotel delivers exceptional value. There may be newer or more luxurious hotels, but very few possess this much character, warmth and genuine hospitality.
The older rooms are somewhat dated in their décor and furnishings, so if you’re after ultra‑modern interiors they may not immediately impress you. That said, my older room was spotlessly clean, well equipped, comfortable, had a beautiful view and a modern bathroom. More importantly, even the older parts of the hotel are exceptionally well cared for. To me, the age adds more charm than it takes away.
