An introduction to Alpenloge

How would you describe Alpenloge in a nutshell?

Alpenloge is a small boutique hotel with only 9 individually designed rooms, a restaurant and a wellness area. It is located on a little hill in the picturesque Scheidegg offering beautiful views of the foothills of the Alps.

What was the inspiration behind Alpenloge and how did it all start?

We asked ourselves the questions: How do we want to shape our lives? Where do we want to live? What should our daily work look like? We knew that we wanted to be surrounded by people and create something that did not yet exist — a modern hotel within a quintessential German landscape that went beyond the classic hotel concept. Guests often remark that they feel our passion, with a focus on time, the region and hospitality, rather than just making money.

What is your background? Is it in hospitality or why did you decide on a hotel?

This was a career change for both of us. I was a business consultant and Michael worked in media. However, we have always been ardent hosts and it soon became clear that we were looking for something where we could entertain guests. Once we had the property, the idea developed into what it is today.

I understood from Michael that you completely rebuilt the house?

Save for a few walls, the house had entirely collapsed. So we rebuilt it as it was before — even the stairs are in the same place and the windows are true to the original format. Many of our guests can’t believe that the structure is completely new, rather than having just been renovated.

The interior design is beautiful. How would you describe it?

We did everything ourselves. While Michael comes from a creative field, I rediscovered a creative side in me that had been dormant for years. For example, the chairs in the dining space were made in Switzerland during the 1930s and we used them to design a matching table.

Our vision was to create a modern aesthetic that suits the house and the region and won’t be outdated in a few years’ time. Many houses in Voralberg exhibit a traditional exterior with contemporary interiors. But we preferred recreating the design spirit of the 1930s, which is the era of the original house. Of course, we would have loved to have a 200-year-old house to work with. But we believe that Alpenloge fits into the region and has its very own, special character.

How would you describe the atmosphere at Alpenloge?

Relaxed, tranquil, private, intimate, individual, and cosy. We deliberately chose not to over-decorate but to keep things simple, which adds to the peacefulness of the place. Guests can unwind in the quiet rooms, with comfortable beds and colour palettes that range from cool to warm, depending on the orientation of each space.

Also on the ground floor is the double room and a junior suite while the first floor has two full suites and two more junior suites. All of these rooms are colourful and exude an urban feel.

Things to do in Bavaria & Scheffau

  • Wine tastings
  • Massages / Treatments
  • Yoga classes
  • Golf
  • Skiing
  • Hiking
  • Cycling

Soaking up the spectacular views of Lake Constance and the surrounding mountains while hiking is the most memorable part of a visit to this region. The lake has a lovely climate and is rather special because of its size and the medieval towns that dot its shores. Bregenz is renowned for its festival and museums, offering an unexpected surprise for such a rural region.

The calming and idyllic setting makes it ideal for outdoorsy hikers, as well as those seeking easily accessible cultural attractions. Travellers can enjoy the best of both worlds — alpine culture and natural landscapes.

The location of Alpenloge

The picturesque Allgäu is a region at the foothills of the Alps. We are situated on a sunny plateau at 670 meters above sea level that offers panoramic mountain views. We’re surrounded by the Bregenz Forest and lush green meadows, and although the property is nestled in the countryside, it’s still well connected.

Scheffau is lively and has that typical, small-village feel, with historic buildings that haven’t been taken over by tourism. A bypass keeps the traffic away, so it enjoys a peaceful atmosphere and is wonderful for pedestrians.

Bregenz is just 15-20 minutes’ drive while Lake Constance is 20 minutes away. We experience two seasons, with both hiking and cross-country skiing trails right on our doorstep. Skiing enthusiasts only need an hour to be at the Arlberg or in Switzerland and the Hochgrat is close by too.

When is the best time to visit Bavaria?

All year round! Each season has its own beauty. In spring, a variety of splendid flowers bloom (thanks to a non-existent monoculture) while late summer is marked by the cattle drives, which are a colourful, local tradition. Autumn is noted for its changing leaf colours while winter sees the Alpenloge surrounded by a breathtaking, snow-covered landscape in what is one of Germany’s sunniest regions. Throughout the year we have beautiful village customs that are steeped in tradition, and the lack of tourists make them feel quite special and authentic.
