Immerse yourself in LAKE-SOUL

Your hotel on Lake Faaker See in Carinthia

We look forward to personally welcoming you soon! Your families Karner and Melcher

A world of feelings and impressions. Nurtured by an Alpine lake.

It's a bit like taking a deep plunge into a whole new world of feelings and impressions. Here at the Karnerhof, life revolves around the Alpine waters before us – and all of the emotions they bring to life. We call this experience LAKE-SOUL. And that’s exactly what we mean: it springs from the very heart and soul of this unique waterfront location. From the feelings that arise with the enchanting lake view from almost every room. To the culinary sensations in our gourmet restaurant. Letting your soul savour the magnificent lakeview terrace. And the expansive 10-hectare Karnerhof grounds with lakeside garden, private beach, swimming area and infinity pool.

Welcome to 4-star Karnerhof on Lake Faaker See!

A world of feelings and impressions. Nurtured by an Alpine lake.

Much has changed at the Karnerhof over the last year. We’ve reorganised, expanded and developed a variety of new ideas. We've worked to make the very nature and soul of the magnificent Lake Faaker See the essence of your holiday. The best thing to do? Enjoy the results for yourself. Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by our new lobby and bar with a unique feel-good ambience echoing the palette of lake colours, along with a new terrace. Then it's on to our lifestyle-driven gourmet restaurant with its equally panoramic and rain-sheltered terrace. Finally, you’ll arrive at the new LAKE-SOUL Spa. The infinity pool with indoor access blurs the distinction between lake and pool, and is heated year-round. There’s the sauna area with a range of heating zones including a lake panorama sauna, cosy quiet rooms and the LAKE-FIT room with an extensive fitness and exercise offering from yoga to Pilates.

That’s why we’re inviting you on a journey through the completely renovated Karnerhof, from the intense, wonderfully relaxing seagrass-green morning light through to the rich blues of midnight. Come experience LAKE-SOUL for yourself!

LAKE-SOUL means letting go.

Wellness Hotel Karnerhof

You yearn to finally arrive here. To feel at ease. And let the boundaries blur. The ones between arriving and settling in, between being at home and simply being. New experiences that stimulate us and make life more exciting. Yet still having things feel like home. It should feel cosy; the idea of your own four walls as a fluffy blanket. Lean back, close your eyes and put your feet up!

Our rooms and suites

LAKE-SOUL and LAKE-MOMENTS.

Nature Lake Faaker See

Early in the morning twilight.

“Once upon a time... That's how most great stories begin. In our case, it starts with daylight dawning over the lake. At some point, the first rays of sunlight start slowly and gently shimmering through the window. Into your wonderfully cosy holiday retreat with comfy beds, stylish design, a wonderfully convenient bathroom, great balcony and that breathtaking lake view…"

Morning dip in the lake

"To wake up and perk up. Give the circulation an extra kick of freshness. An early bird ice bath gets both body and soul moving. Float. Lie suspended in the water. Maybe even a little bit of flight. Take off. Lose the ground beneath your feet. Off to new shores! This weightlessness lets me cast everything aside. And thoughts can just give way to feelings. Pure LAKE-SOUL. And the journey can continue..."

Sometime a bit later: breakfast

"Eating means savouring. Especially here, where the breakfast buffet hits all the high notes. Fresh fruit and vegetables await, along with tasty regional produce, accompanied by a fragrant range of coffees, cappuccino and other beverages to perk you up. Birkermuesli and several other crunchy varieties, plus fruit salad for increased vitality. On top of that, there’s the live preparation of egg dishes and other delicacies - and of course everything else that makes a visit to the buffet worthwhile. Everything you need to start an active day of relaxation on a solid foundation!"

Sometime later: exerciset out in nature

"Up the mountain or around the lake. Hiking, biking, e-biking or simply going for a walk? Carinthia is a land of unlimited leisure possibilities, so it’s hard to choose. Do a stage on the Drau Cycle Path or the Alpe-Adria Trail? Take a stroll around Lake Faaker See? Maybe a trip to Udine? It's best to take one thing at a time. Happily, we’ve still got a few days ahead of us…!"

Sometime in the afternoon: LAKE-SOUL Spa

"Finally some time to myself. Moments of happiness and well-being start to compete with each other. Not just looking outward, but above all gazing inward. Intuition and inspiration come together. Regeneration and silence. The gentle lapping of the water in the new infinity pool. Breathe in lake feelings. Breathe out peak feelings. Slow down. Give in. Question my own rhythm. And then head off to the new bio-sauna!"

Directly afterwards: movement & agility

"Pro aging through new agility. Movement that ensures mobility. And brings body, mind and soul into harmony. That prevents and repairs. Today I’m enjoying the power of fascia training, which loosens adhesions and makes my connective tissue more elastic through springy movements and multi-part stretching exercises. I can feel my muscles regenerating and my spine relaxing with back yoga."

Sometime in-between: massage

"Mindfulness live. Observing myself. Just doing something good for me. Letting go. Letting myself be pampered. Healing hands kneading away the tension and getting my energy channels flowing again. Then maybe a peeling or a facial treatment? Because I'm worth it …!"

Panorama Suite Hotel Karnerhof

And then? Back to the room.

“More space for me. More time for the essentials. Rediscover myself using all of my senses. And let the one true meaning slowly germinate. Feeling myself while also developing a sense of we. Because this isn’t just about the room. It’s more about finding our favourite personal space for breathing deeply. Breathing freely. Simply reviving."

Cuisine Hotel Karnerhof

Highlight of the day: the gourmet dinner

"This autumn day is truly golden and mild. That's why we're enjoying a multi-course dinner on the terrace. The view. The lake. And the mountains. Unique. This is where we savour the whole experience course by course. Here, a finely tuned bouquet of fresh herbs. There, the crisp, fine buffet of starters. When it comes to epicurean enjoyment, the world is one. From the strong nuance of the aromas to the gentle touch of the desserts. Together, the timeless energy of LAKE-SOUL!"

Hotel with bar

Afterwards: hit the bar!

"Time for nightcap! Take stock of the day and enjoy a cocktail or two at the bar. And perhaps afterwards go for an "ultimo giro" round on the terrace under the starry skies. Midnight blue. And finally, dance off into the land of dreams!"
