Bad Aussee’s four-star hotel has rooms with comforts, but the facilities are what really catapult you into relaxation heaven: a wonderfully large sauna and wellness area, a 10m private swimming pool, and excellent bikes that are free for guests (or e-bikes for €20 per day). The hotel also caters to kids with a program of special activities.
