Golden Hill Country Chalets & Suites: A Private Oasis in Southern Styria

Set in the hills of Southern Styria, half an hour by car from Graz, Golden Hill Country Chalets & Suites sits in St. Nikolai im Sausal. Among cypress trees, lavender fields and apple orchards, Barbara and Andreas Reinisch have built a retreat centred on privacy, style and tailored recovery.

Private Chalets and Panoramic Lofts

The accommodations range from spacious chalets with their own infinity pool to light filled panoramic lofts, finished with fine interiors, open fireplaces and outdoor bathtubs. Each chalet carries its own character, from rustic Alpine to purist and modern. The Private Spa Lofts, with views over the vineyards and direct access to a natural pond and sauna, are especially popular.

Barbara's Private Dining

The culinary centrepiece is Barbara's Private Dining, a format without a fixed menu that can be served in the chalet, in the garden or in the private wine cellar, depending on preference. Regional ingredients and personal attention define every meal, complemented by a selection of Styrian and international wines.

Recovery at Your Own Pace

The wellness area stays deliberately understated, with infinity pools, a natural swimming pond, private saunas and outdoor bathtubs. Yoga, personal training and individual treatments round out the offering. Golden Hill also positions itself as a place of lived sustainability, with energy efficient construction and regional partnerships.
