Hotel Kaiserblick Wilder Kaiser

The history of the Künig family

Since 1947, the Künig family have run and continued to develop the hotel with a great deal of passion and foresight. They transformed what was a small home into a superior 4-star hotel, “Das Kaiserblick Wilder Kaiser”, which combines tradition, warm hospitality and modern comfort.

We are still true to our roots today and create a place for you to feel welcome, feel good and return to.

A history full of hospitality

Then and now

1947 - 1965

In 1947, the Vötter family laid the foundations for today’s Kaiserblick with a residential building in Ellmau.

In 1965, this became a guesthouse with 22 rooms and an à la carte restaurant – the beginnings of a success story characterised by tradition, hospitality and constant further development until today.

1984 - 1990

The hotel was taken over by Vincent Künig in 1984, which was the start of its current development. The first major renovation was carried out in 1987. The house was expanded to include 54 guest rooms, and a sauna, spacious restaurant and pizzeria were added.

In 1990, Greta Künig, the youngest daughter of the Künig family, took over the Kaiserblick and continued the hotel’s development with much dedication.

1998

The family also enjoyed some changes in their private lives in 1998.

With the birth of twins Franziska and Teresa, there was double the reason to celebrate.

2000 - 2002

The outdoor pool underwent extensive renovations at the turn of the millennium. A new sauna landscape with whirlpool and an indoor lounger area were also added.

In 2002, Greta bought the forester’s lodge opposite with a total of 17 guest rooms. At the same time, an underground connection was built between the Kaiserblick and the forester’s lodge. These measures were also used as an opportunity to renovate all the rooms and expand the restaurant.

2003 - 2007

In 2003, the birth of their son Tobias only added to the family’s happiness. One year later, Armin took on the running of the hotel as general manager and continued to support his wife Greta with hotel operations.

In 2007, Armin had a lifelong wish come true with the opening of the hotel’s own Vinothek, which remains an important part of the Kaiserblick to this today.

2019 was a very special milestone in the history of the Kaiserblick and the Künig family – the opening of the superior 4-star Kaiserblick hotel.

The reception area and hotel lobby were redesigned, play areas were created for both young and older guests, the wellness area was expanded to 1,900 m² and guest and employee rooms were renovated. The offering was expanded to include a seminar room, a car wash facility and the infinity sky pool.

Since then, the Kaiserblick has been open to welcome guests 365 days a year.

The Kaiserblick has been on a constant development trajectory since 1947. And in the future, we will also combine our tried and tested methods with new ideas – always with the aim of giving our guests unforgettable holiday moments on the Wilder Kaiser.

Warmth and hospitality have always been our focus.

Time is always now…

...for change, to rethink and to realise what really matters. For generations, we have taken this journey with passion and our commitment to make the Kaiserblick a little bit better every day.
 
For unforgettable holiday moments – now and in the future.
