Schloss Matzen, located in Austria's Tyrolean Alps, combines the mysteries of times long gone with the charm of a restored 12th century castle. Within its massive walls, the castle offers a cozy atmosphere that allows guests to experience comfort in a historically fascinating setting.

The castle's beautifully antique furnished bedrooms are centrally heated and have their own modern bathrooms. Some rooms have a view of the Alps. Throughout its long existence, many a lord has slept in its rooms. The magnificent room in which Teddy Roosevelt stayed in the early to mid 1890s while he was still Governor of New York, today bears his name. Guests may explore the interior of the castle on their own or take a tour with their host to explore its unique history.

The breakfast buffet will delight every guest with its luscious offerings of Austrian and American favorites. Local restaurants offer excellent regional specialties.

Your vacation at Schloss Matzen can be action-packed or relaxing, depending on your preference. Your hosts know the area very well and will be happy to help you put together an itinerary. Just be sure to bring enough time to enjoy the area's bounty of natural beauty, historical charm and recreational opportunities.
