We’re proud of you! 🎉👏
Congratulations to siblings Philipp and Anna. Philipp passed his final exam to become a chef in January 2026, and Anna successfully completed her qualification as a specialist in restaurant and event catering in July 2026. 🎓✨
We are particularly delighted that both of them will be staying with our team for another year. As a family-run wellness hotel, it means a great deal to us to be able to support young people on their journey – and it’s all the more wonderful when they choose to remain part of our hotel family.
Dear Anna, dear Philipp – we wish you continued happiness, success and unforgettable moments here with us at the Hotel Sterr. 💚

Nature &
Garden
We would like to give you as many of these as possible. Moments of relaxation and enjoyment. Of joy. Of pausing for a moment. Of well-being. Small sources of strength. Of course, the surrounding, wildly romantic forest landscape provides the perfect backdrop. But our garden also plays its part. Our garden is particularly close to our hearts. Because it frames our house and makes it the oasis we want it to be for you. Not just a bland lawn. A sea of flowers and grasses with many cosy retreats on different levels.
In between, unobtrusively embedded, you will also find the element of water with a swimming pond, outdoor pool and goldfish pond. Listen to the relaxing ripple and savour every moment.
