Tradition at the four-star Römerhof Hotel

The Mayer family, made up of the engineer Hans Mayer, his wife Dr Grete Mayer and their son Peter, first came to Obertauern as winter tourists in 1951. They liked it so much that three years later they moved to Obertauern and in 1957 began building the Römerhof Hotel.At that time, the hotel had about 35 rooms (half ofthem with shower/WC, the others with running hot and cold water).

In 1971 the indoor pool was built and in the following season.

1971/72 it was first available for use – at the time an unbelievable luxury.

In 1976, another major extension was added with the so-called northern wing and staff accommodation.Of course this part of the hotel still stands today although it has undergone many renovations.The hotel then reached about55 rooms, which promised the comfort then that still meets today‘s demands and standards.

The next major step towards the hotel as it is today took place in 1990, the distinctive tower, the dining room extension and the Romulus and Remus apartments were built then.Through this, the hotel reached the size it is today of about140 beds.

In 1999, convenience was greatly improved by the construction of an underground car park.

In 2004 the wellness area was extended and our ski bridge was built.

In 2006 the last, major renovation took place on the south side (family suites) and above the underground car park where our employee lodgings can now be found.

Since then, the rooms, open spaces and technical fittings are continuously being renovated and improved. Further expansion of the hotel, however, is no longer being considered.
