At Carinthia’s first organic hotel, organic ingredients are prepared in a vegetarian style. According to Dr. M. O. Bruker’s nutritional philosophy, these foods are “alive”—rich in vitamins, minerals, trace elements, enzymes, and unsaturated fats. One-third of the menu consists of raw foods. The breakfast buffet features plenty of fruits and vegetables. And dinner begins with a large serving of salad. We are also happy to prepare vegan or gluten-free meals.

The menu features what’s in season and grown locally. For example: asparagus and strawberries in the spring. Leafy greens and cherries in the summer. Pumpkin and apples in the fall. Root vegetables and dried fruits in the winter. Exceptions prove the rule. Then things get exotic—with passion fruit and dates at the breakfast buffet or pakoras, Indian vegetable fritters in batter, as a main course. Because we like to be a little crazy. And we were proud to be awarded the Grüne Haube in 1994 for our natural cuisine.
