Alpin Resort Sacher
Seefeld in Tirol, Austria · Sacher · High Luxury
Henriette Clements opened Hotel Britannia on the Geigenbühel in 1929, with an English tea room and an American bar, and that first winter drew business, aristocracy, and the arts. Fritz and Hilde Mauthner bought the pension in 1950, rebuilt it as the Astoria, and cut an M for their name into the gable you still see above Seefeld. Tyrol's first indoor hotel pool opened here in 1953. Their daughter Elisabeth Gürtler brought the house into Sacher in 2022: eighty-one rooms at about 1,200 metres, the highest of the three Sacher hotels.

History
In 1928 Henriette Clements, from Britain, bought the first plot on the Geigenbühel and planned a country house with an English concert and tea room and an American bar. She opened Hotel Britannia in 1929. Fritz and Hilde Mauthner bought Pension Britannia in 1950 and, after a full renovation, reopened it as the Astoria. The M-shaped gable is their initial. In 1953 the Astoria opened what the house calls Tyrol's first indoor hotel pool. A spa of about 2,000 square metres followed in 2003. Elisabeth Gürtler, the Mauthners' daughter, took the resort in 2015 and brought it into the Sacher family in 2022, beside Hotel Sacher Wien and Hotel Sacher Salzburg. It joined The Leading Hotels of the World in 2023. There are 81 rooms and suites.
