We are dedicated to ensuring you have the most wonderful holiday.

But please remember that these items are the property of the hotel and must be left in the room when you leave.
- Bergkristall wellness basket including sauna bath towels
- “For the love of me” bathrobe – our fluffy bathrobes ensure you have a relaxing time in the spa area – did we pick out the right size for you?
- 100% organic cotton spa towel – please use this towel on the loungers in the spa area – both for hygienic reasons and to protect the covers.
- Bergkristall toiletries (shampoo and body milk) in your bathroom
- as well as other items...
If you need something, please let us know.
Do you like the items we provide? You can buy them all at the Heimatgut hotel boutique – for yourself or perhaps as a gift for someone special.
BUT PLEASE don’t just take them from the room – we’ll be upset!

Dogs are generally welcome in our hotel. However, pets are not allowed in all the rooms . Please mention that you are travelling with your four-legged friend when making your enquiry so that we can offer you a suitable room.
Pets are not allowed in our restaurant or in the Kristall SPA. Your dog is welcome to accompany you in the Atrium and the HansiBAR.
Pets are not allowed in our restaurant or in the Kristall SPA. Your dog is welcome to accompany you in the Atrium and the HansiBAR.
- We charge € 25.00 per day per dog.
- It’s a good idea to bring a few familiar things for your furry friend so that they settle in as quickly as possible and really feel like a pampered pooch. This could be your dog’s favourite toy, blanket or food bowl. This also helps to prevent your four-legged friend from letting off steam on the hotel furniture.
- But accidents can happen. It may be unpleasant, but as the owner you are liable for any damage caused by your dog, such as scratches or stubborn stains. We recommend taking out appropriate liability insurance in this respect.
- Your faithful companion will find a welcome treat in the room as well as a food and water bowl.
- Please bring your own dog food from home. Please understand that we can’t store or prepare food for your dog for reasons of hygiene.
- Ideally, you should only leave your dog alone in the room in exceptional cases. If you do so, please hang the Do Not Disturb sign on your room door. That way, our staff will not try to enter your room.
- Unfortunately, we can’t guarantee that the sun will always shine. If your dog gets muddy while playing outside, you will find towels at our main entrance and the two side entrances so that you can dry your dog’s paws. You will also find a bin for poop bags next to the main entrance, at our deer park cabin, and at the annexe on the east side.
- Your dog might sleep on the sofa or bed in your home, but we would prefer you to being a dog bed for your four-legged friend. But if your dog still decides it wants to get comfy on the soft furnishings, please cover them first with a dog blanket, which we are happy to provide.
- If your dog should have a little accident in the hotel, please inform us straight away.

Our beautiful bar is named after Hansi the stag, who lives with his harem in the deer park around the Resort. Look up, and you can see his mighty antlers hanging from the ceiling, because Hansi sheds his antlers every spring in order to impress the ladies in autumn when they grow back even bigger. The more points the antlers have, the older the stag.
