Europaischer Hof Aktivhotel & Spa - Ehemals Cesta Grand

I am really shocked to learn that this hotel is a 4 star one, as staying there makes you feel it's even better than 5 star hotels. Staff are amazing and they treat guests super nice and for sure make you feel at home. Shout out to the lady at the reception mainly night shifts (with glasses) as she went beyond normal customer service, and I should say the same for the creek guy at the resturant along with Wisam as well. The food is better than 7 star hotels... Hats off to the chef. Super staff and super hotel.

We are just back in Sweden having spent out fourth visit in one year in Cesta Grand, and we can just state that this is the BEST hotel we ever stayed in, and trust me, travelling is our life! Some reasons why we keep on coming back to Cesta Grand: The ambiance in the Austrian alps situated in the calm and stunningly beautiful Bad bruck. The food in the hotel. The amazing Aperol Spritz made by the best bartender Natasja. The absolute cleanliness of the hotel managed by the cleaning ladies led by the one and only Danica who herself is very operative making the perfect clean a**osphere. This week we spotted her dusting the leafs of the flowers in the hallway as well as vacuuming the stairs. We also get the BEST rooms in the hotel arranged by Frau Irina Haas in the reception (thank you!!). Best of the best in this magnificent hotel is the pool area and the clay tennis courts. Both of these are managed by Joszef, a jolly good Hungarian fellow that worked in the hotel all 20 times we were there. Joszef not only keeps the pool area in the perfect condition, but also is the Tennis-Pro and our son who is a promising little tennis player has learned many things from Joszef in the lessions held in the two clay courts that are in remarkable condition. Retention of employees is not easy in the Austrian alps, so I do hope that Danica, Joszef, Frau Haas, Natasja and all the other stars in the hotel are remunerated in such a way that they will still be there next time we show up. See you soon again, Cesta Grand team!

My family visited the hotel for the last 35 years. Remember to run around as a kit. In my memories the hotel was great with great food. Recognize to hotel as not much changed, some of the rooms are renovated and the dining room. Not a fan of carpet in a hotel room. Major disappoin**ent was dinner. The hotel promotes slow food. Always each evening firmed side dishes where served. Talked to the cook, he insisted that Austrian “Bratkartoffeln” can be fried. The evening before he served frozen convenience product also fried. The hotel director responded that 97% of the guest like the food. Take a look at the salad buffet!

Peacefull location and easy access to other places by (cheap) bus.

Super hotel. Fine pool and sauna area. Very Nice breakfast buffet and snack in the afternoon.

Once again great time spent with my family in this fabulous hotel…booked a five nights stay…calm location, spacious room, great pool and the food is outstanding (Chef Robert makes the best omelettes I’ve ever had)…also bis zum nächsten mal!!! 👍👍👍

We are so grateful for staying twice this summer in this absolutely amazing hotel! The hotel offers fantastic food, great scenery from room over nearby mountain and valley, very clean rooms, great tennis courts and a really, really good crew on site! Thank you Frau Auer and Ekaterina for the best room in the hotel (318). We are just so pleased! Thank you to the French bartender Marc for the best Aperol Spritz in Austria. One can tell that you worked in Italy! Thank you Camila and Claudio in the restaurant for the most professional and guest-friendly approach in all the hotels in which we stayed the last 20 years. Camila arranged for us to change table the first day to have the greatest view and the very best seating. Claudio took the time to teach our son napkin designs despite the heavy workload. Everything was beautifully prepared by Claudio for our meals and the service was immaculate! A special thank you to Joszef who every day prepares the garden and the pool area in the very best of ways. Joszef is also a great tennis instructor and during our stay in June, he improved the game of our youngest son in an excellent way! The hotel is a home away from home. We have travelled all over the world, but we keep on coming back for everything this perfect hotel has to offer.

I would like to thank for a great stay in this hotel. I appreciate numerous things - cleanliness, spacious and well designed rooms, peace and quite, exquisite cuisine and very friendly to dogs. They are even allowed in the restaurant. Services are not four star and the hotel is not suitable for demanding luxury and style loving hotels as it is obsolete in some parts. Majority of the staff does not speak English. But if you are ready for all this, you will enjoy your stay to the full. The only problem is that they do not label food with contained allergenes and you do not know if you can eat it or not. The staff does not know either.
