Architecture
Parkhotel Holzner was built in 1908. Like various other major hotels in the Alpine region, it was built in Alpine art nouveau style. In comparison to the turn of the century’s urban art nouveau, this style was more sober, much less fragile and ornamental, without sacrificing any of its lightness or linearity. Much conversion and renovation work became necessary over the course of the years.
This was performed with great care to prevent the original fabric of the building from being damaged. The most extensive work was probably the installation of a central heating system, of baths in the individual rooms and the conversion of the breakfast veranda in the south face to a closed dining room, at the end of the 1960s and the early 1970s.
And, of course, the construction of the new wellness centre in 2006/2007, which involved a switch from a traditional heating system to one that used renewable energies with the installation of a wood-chip heating system. All of this work was performed without any of our establishment's originality being lost. In fact, it enhanced the original fabric of the building.
