My parents Antonia and Wolfgang have made the SCHWANEN what it is today: A fully organic hotel with an excellent reputation. After years of travelling and learning in New York and San Francisco, I feel lucky to now be the owner and host here at the SCHWANEN. My mum and dad will now cut back and dedicate themselves to other tasks in the background. For me, this is an exciting time, and I am very much looking forward to it.
Here’s what makes our rooms really special: They help you unwind, they soothe you, they provide this fantastic smell of wood – and feel just so good.

The dining room is the very heart of the SCHWANEN. It’s where guests eat, talk, have breakfast. For us, it’s where we work, invite and entertain our guests.

Bizau and the Bregenz Forest have so much to offer, so staying for 1, 2 or 3 nights only might not be enough. That’s why I came up with the idea of creating this 4-night-package for a very special price, so that you get the chance to fully enjoy the SCHWANEN hotel, Bizau and the rest of the Bregenz Forest.

To me, a real break from life doesn’t only mean taking a break from the place, the people and the job you know. It also means taking a break from social networks, missing the latest news and simply not being available.

Thyme, St John’s wort, alpine lady’s mantle, nasturtium, stinging nettle, ground ivy, bishop’s goutweed – these are just a few of the „heroes in green“ that Elisabeth Breidenbrücker, our local herbalist, has brought back to our knowledge.

Sometimes, it doesn’t matter how much time you have, but how you spend the time available. So why not take a short time-out? I personally think it can be more relaxing to take several short breaks than to wait for this one big holiday of the year.

This multi-course menu was given its name when one of our guests told my mother: “Wow, you really are some wild women, preparing four different multi-course menus for your guests!”

Once a year, Michael and Franziska share their skills and knowledge in a two-day cooking class. The #wildwomencookingclass combines tradition with modern elements. We will cook after my Grandmother’s recipes, bake spelt bread and learn about the principles of cooking according to Hildegard of Bingen.

Headache, joint pain, food cravings: Unstructured fasting methods can result in frustration and disappointment and make it impossible to stick to your goals. Our Hildegard bread fasting week with the WILD WOMEN is different and it definitely works. It will help you free your body, mind & soul from unwanted burden.

In 2009, the SCHWANEN was remodelled Bregenzerwald-style in cooperation with architect Hermann Kaufmann. This means a lot of woodwork and Reduce to the max – our motto then and now. more
For two years I did not give up on my dream of having our own vegetable garden, designed according to the needs of our #wildeweiberküche kitchen team at the SCHWANEN.

It’s all about the attitude! We can show you the rest. Simply give us a call, stop by or email us your application.

The Schwanen cuisine, awarded fourteen points by the Gault Milau restaurant guide, is extremely creative and highly nutritious. At Hotel Schwanen, enjoyment is expressed in terms of regional organic cuisine: one of Austria’s most charming regions, Bregenz Forest provides everything needed for the renowned restaurant at the popular biohotel to prepare outstanding midday meals. The mouth-watering lunch menu uses only fresh local ingredients. In this family-run hotel, the sommelier’s mother prepares the finest contemporary cuisine to spoil guests coming from all distances.
