September 2009 in the Hotel Gruner Baum in Bad Gastein is a time we will never forget. The reason we were there was the wedding of my daughter to my new son-in-law in this little piece of Heaven in a valley in the Austrian Alps. For this special occasion a mixed group of family and friends from Ireland together with... more

On Tuesday 15th September 2009, we drove from Munich to the Gruner Baum in Bad Gastein. We were a little unsure to be honest as we had planned everything through the Hotels Wedding planner, Sam. We were to be married on Friday 18th with our blessing and signing of the papers on the 17th. The following morning when we woke... more

This hotel has a fabulous location, tucked away from the main town. You can do all sorts of outdoor activities, great for walkers and bikers, it's pet friendly, has great breakfast, nice enough rooms and great atmosphere. We will definitely come back. more

We spent five nights at this hotel and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The area includes numerous hiking trails of various degrees of difficulty.

You are really close to the mountains and at the edge of a national park. It is like having... more

Excellent stay. Thermal water and spa very satisfying. Staff helpful, efficient, unobtrusive. Owners discreet and correct. Choices of food gorgeous, prestations and amenities of high quality. more

Inside pool was disappointing - small, outdated with nothing to impress; outside one didn't work - probably it is seasonal. A bit isolated - you need a car to get anywhere. more

We spent Eastern in the beautifull located Gruener Baum. Staff is extremely friend, location (if you like nature) is great, food in the restaurant is excellent and international. The Welness is nice a but old-fashioned. Our room was in the main building just above the hotel entrance and this was a big disapointment. It is very small and you hear... more

Good sauna, pool and spa. Very cozy, relaxing, family type atmosphere. Delicious breakfasts and dinners. more
