Kontor

Tyrol


Lodged in a grand old townhouse dating to 1450, Kontor is a characterful addition to Hall's hotel scene. No two rooms are alike, but all have tons of personality, with bay windows, lovingly restored wooden floors, and themes from Gothic (if you like beams) to nostalgic. A good breakfast with eggs cooked to your liking is served in the baroque hall.
