History in the making
Courage changes more than just a hotel.
Sometimes change begins right where everything is actually going well. For over 70 years, the Hotel Enzian in Obertauern has grown - from a small bed-and-breakfast run by our grandparents to one of the region’s most established hotels. Three generations, countless stories, and a strong tradition would have been enough to simply carry on successfully. But that wasn’t the path we chose.
When the third generation took over, hostess Elisabeth “Sissi” Veit decided to do something that has become rare in the hotel industry: she had the courage to radically question a proven model of success. Not because it was necessary, but because she was convinced that tourism today must be more than just beautiful rooms and perfect service.
That’s why the Enzian wasn't just renovated - it was reimagined.
A classic ski hotel was transformed into the Home of Good Moods. A place that brings people together, fosters freedom, and redefines hospitality. Adults Only. Three international à la carte restaurants instead of traditional half-board. Flexible breakfast hours. A workation right on the slopes. No dress code - just individuality. The goal wasn’t just individual changes, but a completely new understanding of what a vacation can look like today.
But the real transformation didn’t take place in architecture or cuisine - it took place in mindset.
“A local base for global minds” isn’t just a slogan for us - it’s a reality we live by. Last winter, people from 22 countries worked together at the Enzian. Different cultures, languages, and life stories come together every day to create genuine hospitality. Diversity isn’t just tolerated - it’s celebrated. That’s exactly where our strength lies: Guests don’t just experience Obertauern - they experience the world in a single place. This openness doesn’t stop with our team. It also shapes the way we communicate. With our rebranding, we made a conscious decision to adopt a visual language that highlights diversity - even though we knew it would polarize opinion. Some of the reactions were intense. Nevertheless, we’ve remained true to our values. Because change sometimes means consciously letting some people go in order to attract precisely those who share our values.
We are just as committed to sustainability. Not as a marketing gimmick, but as a responsibility toward people and the environment. The Enzian has been recognized as a “Changemaker Hotel” and holds several environmental certifications, including the Austrian Ecolabel, the EU Ecolabel, and Green Meetings. At the same time, we consistently invest in social sustainability: in fair working conditions, in a respectful work environment, and in the quality of life of our international team. In recent years alone, we’ve invested around 750,000 euros in modern employee housing—because true hospitality begins where those who make it possible every day feel at home.
All these decisions are united by a common principle: Change must never be an end in itself. It must touch people’s lives.
That is exactly what our motto, “Home of Good Moods,” stands for. It doesn’t describe a marketing campaign, but rather our corporate culture. For guests, it means a place where they can let go, recharge, and feel free. For our team, it’s a daily promise of appreciation, openness, and genuine collaboration. It connects our history with our future.
The Hotel Enzian demonstrates that tradition and change are not a contradiction. On the contrary: precisely because we know our roots, we had the courage to rethink everything.
We didn’t just transform a hotel. We’re demonstrating what tourism can look like when courage, diversity, sustainability, and corporate responsibility come together. And that’s exactly why the Hotel Enzian deserves an award: because it’s not individual ideas that are being recognized here, but a consistently lived-out philosophy that proves genuine change is possible - if you have the courage to put it into practice.
It's the mix that makes it
»Hospitality for us is providing a home for vibrant life. We celebrate difference, adore similarities and bring together what belongs together.«
