Set in the Salzburg mountains, in the UNESCO Biosphere Park, Mesnerhaus has been run by Maria and Josef Steffner since 2007. The modern interior design within the venerable walls of this building dating back to 1420se, incorporates the historical architecture beautifully. An extremely warm and welcoming hostess, Maria is responsible for the wine cellar, restaurant and hotel, which has six cosy rooms and a suite. With just as much dedication, Josef delivers expressive, creative cuisine made from regional and seasonal produce, served as a set menu or à la carte. The signature dish Lungau potato with sour cream, egg yolk and Grüll caviar is fabulous.
