September 2024 - a Castel story from the Dobitsch family
Teamwork makes the dream work
At the Castel, almost 60 dedicated employees support us every day in fulfilling the high expectations of our guests. Together, they invest around 400 hours a day to provide our guests with an unforgettable experience around the clock.
Because you can't do it alone
Many valuable people have been supporting the Dobitsch family at the Castel for many years - some of them from the very beginning. An important constant for the hosts and guests.

So that you can feel good
Always there for you
Early in the morning, breakfast cook Irmgard and some chambermaids, supported by the caretaker, ensure a good start to the day. While our friendly service staff look after you at breakfast, the first preparations for delicious lunch dishes and dinner in the evening begin in the kitchen.
When guests leave the Castel to explore the beautiful surroundings, the rooms are tidied up by our housekeeping team and the laundresses are also hard at work.
The caretakers are on hand to help and advise guests and staff, and the staff at reception are ready to answer any questions you may have - and have plenty of good tips for your stay.
Recharge your batteries in the spa with Daniel Ceska and the whole team, so that you can return relaxed and full of energy, for example on the lounge terrace - here the bar team serves coffee, cakes, cool drinks and small snacks in the afternoon.
Meanwhile, the menu for the next dinner is being written, for which sommelier Ivana Capraro selects the right wines.
In the evening, our chefs take over again, supported by Simon Oberhofer, Florian Prinoth and the service team, to serve you many delicacies in both restaurants.
To round off the evening, Fabian Reinhold invites you to a nightcap at the bar. And when everyone is asleep, night porter Elmar Gamper watches over the Castel and its guests.
