Ois im Mühltalhof.

At the edge of the Große Mühl river, Hotel Ois im Mühltalhof is a masterclass in blending five generations of hospitality with sharp, contemporary design. While the foundation dates back to 1698, the current iteration is defined by a bold architectural mix of historic wood paneling and modern glass annexes. The soul of the property is its kitchen, led by the father-and-son team of Helmut and Philip Rachinger. Their cooking translates the rugged Mühlviertel landscape into refined plates using wild local produce and innovative techniques. Guests can watch the action at the glowing charcoal grill in the fireplace room or retreat to the glazed veranda overlooking the water. Beyond the plate, the experience is anchored by a deep, adventurous wine list and a riverside spa, making it a destination where rural tradition feels entirely current.
