Freistadt.
Hotel Freigold brings a high-concept, "selfness" approach to the historic brewing town of Freistadt. Operating as an adults-only retreat, the hotel is anchored by a 36-meter-high SKY spa that offers panoramic views of the surrounding hills from its saunas and steam baths. The wellness experience extends to a massive 9,000 m² garden featuring a natural swimming pond and an outdoor whirlpool. Modern rooms emphasize clean lines and wooden floors, each with a balcony. The dining program is equally unconventional, focusing on vegetarian-forward sharing plates served in a glass-walled restaurant 40 meters up. Guests are encouraged to stay active through a curated program of yoga, e-biking, and interactive "challenges" designed to break the standard vacation routine.
