Birkenhof – Your Breakfast Hotel with Warmth in Rauris

Welcome to the Birkenhof, a family-run breakfast hotel rich in tradition and heartfelt hospitality. Our story dates back to 1958 when my grandparents purchased the former wagon workshop in Rauris and opened a small village shop. With great dedication and foresight, they laid the foundation for what has become our cozy breakfast hotel today.

As early as the 1960s, my grandparents recognized the potential of the growing tourism industry in Rauris. They expanded the business and created guest rooms, which, then as now, represent a relaxing vacation in the mountains. By 1982, the business had grown into a solid foundation that we continue to build upon.

In 1982, my parents, Anneliese and Herbert Lohninger, took over the family business and developed it further. With great attention to detail, the breakfast inn became Pension Lohninger, a place where hospitality was paramount. Many regular guests, who have accompanied us over the years, have become like friends to us.

In 2006, I was honored to take over the house from my parents. Together, we transformed the Birkenhof into a modern and cozy hotel. Since 2010, our hotel offers:

  • 15 comfortable double and family rooms
  • 3 spacious apartments
  • A welcoming reception and lounge area

A true vacation feeling with friends!

In 2014, we transitioned to offering breakfast service to provide you with maximum flexibility for your vacation in Rauris. We place great emphasis on regional products and a warm atmosphere – creating a true vacation feeling among friends.

Our family history is deeply intertwined with the Birkenhof: in 2016, my daughter Sarah was born, in 2018, I celebrated a wonderful wedding with my husband Ewald, and in 2019, our son Valentin was born. These personal milestones shape our hospitality – here, people and their stories take center stage.

A highlight of our hotel is the newly designed wellness area, completely renovated in 2023. Look forward to:

  • A bio-sauna for gentle relaxation
  • A Finnish sauna for soothing deep warmth
  • An inviting relaxation room offering a cozy atmosphere and serene tranquility to unwind

Today, the Birkenhof – Breakfast Hotel with Warmth is a place where tradition, quality, and hospitality come together in a special way. Whether you're here for hiking, skiing, or simply to relax, you'll find the perfect home away from home amidst the stunning natural beauty of Rauris.

I would be delighted to welcome you to our hotel soon.
Until then, I wish you all the best and a wonderful time.

Warm regards from Rauris,
Yours, Doris Kloiber
