Two Retreats in the Mostviertel: Wellness, Nature and Historic Charm

Gentle hills, orchard meadows and quiet landscapes define the Mostviertel. Between Neuhofen an der Ybbs and Waidhofen an der Ybbs sit two hotels that bring this region to life in different ways, both ideal for a summer break not far from Vienna.

RelaxResort Kothmühle: Pure Nature in Neuhofen

At RelaxResort Kothmühle, the landscape unfolds into a sprawling garden with a natural swimming pond and views of the Mostviertel's gentle hills. Twenty thousand square metres of nature, a thirty-metre chlorine-free biotope pond, and sun loungers where you eventually stop counting how long you've been lying there.

Summer days here start with a dip in the water or a quiet hour in the spa.

Das Schloss an der Eisenstrasse: In the Historic Heart of Waidhofen

Just a few kilometres away, Das Schloss an der Eisenstrasse sits in the historic centre of Waidhofen an der Ybbs. Cyclists set off right from the door onto the Ybbstal cycle path, and in the evening the path leads to the sundowner bar overlooking the old town. An indoor pool, saunas and quiet rooms provide plenty of recovery after an active summer day.

Both properties bring together nature, relaxation and regional culture, for movement, indulgence and genuine rest in equal measure.
