Blocking the hotel exclusively for a group is not possible except for the beginning/end of each season, more
precisely in the end of march/april or in the end of October.
Total costs

some facts, e.g. number of people, budget for the menu, choice of wines, etc., we certainly give you an idea of
the total costs as per our experience.

Menu suggestions
In the following we present our menu suggestions, which can be varied as per your own preferences. Our chef
is at your disposal for any further and seasonal suggestions. Please note, that a festive dinner does not allow a
