Garten-Hotel Ochensberger

The Garten-Hotel Ochsenberger in St. Ruprecht an der Raab is renowned for the holistic corporate events hosted at their high-end conference centre. Nestled between greenery and gardens lies a nature-oriented space of retreat that leaves nothing to be desired. A modern conference zone covering 450 sqm houses four modern seminar and meeting rooms flooded with daylight, which offer ample space for creative processes and productive work time. The surrounding gardens and the wellness area STEIERNESS invite guests to take some time out for body and soul. Regional delicacies are served at the à la carte restaurant and the innovative eatery. After a busy day, guests may withdraw to one of the 63 country style rooms.

Room for thought is only one of many things the conference zone of the Garten-Hotel Ochsenberger offers. Plenty of working space can be found in four fully equipped event and meeting rooms with sizes ranging from 42 sqm to 146 sqm. Due to the event spaces being combinable and divisible, events with six to 130 attendees can be accommodated. To offer the best seminar experience, the design of the conference rooms bridges the gap between naturalness and modernity: State of the art conference equipment, including technologies such as Clickshare and Weframe, allows for cutting-edge digital and hybrid events. At the same time, floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows, providing a spectacular view and direct access to the seminar garden, emphasise the connection to nature. In fine weather, working outside or enjoying a break on the furnished seminar terrace is encouraged. Inside, a lounge is also available for guests to spend relaxed coffee breaks in. To ensure that all events run smoothly, a competent advisor from the event management team as well as an in-house technician are available at all times.

After all things business have been taken care of, guests can immerse themselves in the 1,000 sqm STEIERNESS wellness area. There, they can enjoy an indoor pool, a variety of saunas, lounging areas with panoramic views, a relaxation room, and a fitness centre. There are plenty of places to recharge, most notable the sunbathing terrace and the Kraftgarten, an idyllic garden featuring a natural swimming pond, a relaxation pavilion, a meditation area, and much more waiting to be explored.

When refuelling with fresh energy, the culinary delights are not to be missed. Both the à la carte restaurant featuring a terrace and an outside dining area and the trendy eatery “Die Gärtnerei” serve Austrian and international cuisine. Wine enthusiasts enjoy unwinding in the wine bar, complete with its own vinothèque.

When it comes to organising the supporting programme, the possibilities in and around the Garten-Hotel Ochsenberger are virtually endless. Numerous running and cycling paths wind their way through the extensive grounds, the hotel offers yoga courses, meditation and Smovey classes, and excursions such as alpaca hikes and guided mountain bike tours are organised on a regular basis. Additionally, a wide range of company outings, incentives, and team-building activities can be offered. Whether it be gin tastings,  hot air balloon rides or virtual reality experiences — there is something for everyone.

As one of the most popular seminar hotels in Austria, the Garten-Hotel Ochsenberger has been classified with five flipcharts by “Tagen in Österreich” and has further repeatedly been awarded the golden flipchart. Focusing on sustainability across the board, the conference centre has also been awarded the European Ecolabel.
