Hotel Schörhof - your holiday home in Salzburg’s mountains

Your family getaway at the Steinernes Meer

A place where families feel at ease

The Dankl family warmly welcomes you to Schörhof! For generations, we have shared our love of nature, our animals, and our Pinzgau home with our guests. As your host family, we create a place where families feel at ease and genuine holiday memories are made.

Our family-friendly holiday paradise is located in Saalfelden, surrounded by stunning nature at the foot of the Steinernes Meer. Explore our region on countless hiking trails, mountain bike routes, ski slopes, and cross-country ski trails. The best way to experience this landscape is on horseback: on a ride through forests and meadows, you will feel the special connection between people, animals, and nature that defines Schörhof. This is how riding experiences become memories that stay with you for a long time.

Indulgence in harmony with Salzburg’s nature

Honest cuisine with ingredients from our own organic farm

With true conviction, we use organic products from local farmers as well as from our own organic farm. Reidinggut, our organic farm, is located directly behind the hotel. It is passionately run by father Alois, who supplies our kitchen not only with pork and lamb, but also with game from our own hunting grounds. Our dishes are refined with herbs from our own garden. Awarded the AMA Genuss Region Gastronomie quality seal, our kitchen delights you with regional classics and international specialities alike.

Warm, close to nature and traditional

Family-owned since 1928, the once-popular inn in the north-west of Saalfelden has developed over generations into the family-friendly 4-star Hotel Schörhof we know today. As the Dankl family, we share with our guests what we ourselves love most: nature, our animals, and the special way of life in Pinzgau. Perhaps that is exactly why so many guests return to us year after year, and a first holiday grows into a genuine bond.

From a tavern to the renowned wellness and family hotel we know today: our Hotel Gasthof Schörhof was first mentioned in 1550 as a tavern and at that time also served as a changing station for coachmen and postal horses. The word “Schör” in the hotel’s name refers to unhitching and rehitching the postal horses. Even in the time of Maria Theresa, our house was granted fishing rights on the Saalach, which we still hold to this day.

Your perfect setting for every occasion, from conferences to family celebrations.
