Every guesthouse has its own clientele: some cater to sports clubs full of young, boisterous types, whilst others welcome tour groups of gentle, elderly guests. The guests often reflect the culture and values of the establishment. At the DACHSTEINHOF, a wide variety of groups come together: nature lovers, those seeking peace and quiet, Christian holiday groups and business people.
Stefan Höchsmann is the manager of Höchsmannn GmbH and the author of the German book Gegen den Strom der Gestressten(Stream up – Stress down). Additionally he works in the DACHSTEINHOF.
Helen Höchsmann is the owner’s wife, originally from England. She works from Germany and deals with bookings and correspondence with guests at the DACHSTEINHOF.
