The city hotel in Bregenz between mountain and lake
Bregenz is the regional capital of Vorarlberg, where three countries meet: Germany (10 km), Austria and Switzerland (15 km), with the Pfänder mountain behind you and Lake Constance at your feet.
The Schwärzler is situated at the foot of the recreational area of the Gebhard mountain, near the meadows of Bregenzerach, 20 minutes' walk from the pedestrian zone (a bus leaves every 15 minutes from the bus stop next to the hotel).
Revitalise yourself with fresh air on traffic-free paths from the hotel on foot or by bike (can be hired from the hotel). Go diving in the light-filled pavilion with the indoor pool, sweat it out in the sauna, take a purification session in the steam bath, get a tan in the solarium or let off steam in the fitness area.
Would you like a relaxing massage, or cosmetic treatment?
For the cultured, visiting the Bregenz house of art (Kunsthaus) is a must. This is an award-winning building that houses a museum of contemporary art. Also, the Vorarlberg regional library, where state-of-the-art technology, old masonry and valuable contents become one. A sight worth seeing is the upper city, the oldest part of Bregenz, with the emblem of the Martinsturm (tower), the largest onion dome in Europe. One gem and tranquil spot is the baroque church of St Gallus.
Energetic holiday makers will find three different golf courses within a 30 km radius (Bad Schachen, Weissensberg golf club, and the Riefensberg golf park), along with a tennis court with indoor courts, about 500 m away. Also: jogging, Nordic Walking and mountain bike trails, starting from the hotel. The Schwärzler Hotel is the starting point for leisurely walks, a trip on the Pfänder railway, or a boat trip on Lake Constance. What will interest young and old is a visit to the Inatura in Dornbirn, the land of games in Ravensburg, Germany, and summer tobogganing in Bizau.
Physical well being is high on the agenda at the Schwärzler Hotel, which is a member of the Chaine des Rôtisseurs, the gourmet club of Vorarlberg. We attach great importance to preparing produce that is fresh in cooperation with local farmers and companies. Whether it's a romantic meal for two, a family occasion, a company celebration or an official reception - we provide the right setting and free parking on the premises.
It's especially worth mentioning that this is the ideal venue for seminars, conferences and presentations, all with daylight, and with some direct access to the garden terrace. It goes without saying that state-of-the-art communications and moveable seating are provided.
Special flat rates for those taking short breaks, those interested in culture, seminars and weekends.
Your hosts, Albert and Maria Kofler and the SCHWÄRZLER team, extend a warm welcome to you.
