Romantik Hotel

Das Schiff

A tribute to the sophistication of simplicity

Romantik Hotel Das Schiff

What is a ship doing in the Bregenzerwald? Deeply anchored in the region, it has been a safe haven since 1840 for all those in search: of culinary surprises and regional treasures. After a second home with lots of atmosphere and lived hospitality. In this "house with character", quality is offered at the highest level on all levels.

Our hosts

The Metzler host family offers its guests authentic and warm hospitality that, beyond stars and toques, focuses above all on the well-being of holidaymakers. The family-run hotel was founded by the ancestor Johann Jakob Mennel in 1840, who built an inn in his home country after his active service in the navy. The tradition of the house has been carried on for generations. It was strongly influenced in the past by Erna Metzler, whose cooking skills were already awarded the Gault Millau in 1993.

Culinary

Culinary delights for every palate

There are probably several reasons why the Romantik Hotel "Das Schiff" has one of the best kitchens in Vorarlberg according to the most important gourmet guides. For many years, the main reason was Erna, who is now the senior chef. Cooking her way to the top as a self-taught chef says a lot about talent, motivation and passion. However, the most important thing is the successful combination of traditional and modern as well as international and regional cuisine.

One of the iron laws is to use regional rather than imported, fresh rather than preserved, natural rather than industrial raw materials. This not only benefits the region and the environment, but also tastes much better.

According to various gourmet guides, the ship spoils its guests with one of the best cuisines in Vorarlberg. Bernd Reimer is no stranger to taking the helm from May 2021, as he already assisted Erna Metzler a few years ago and cooked the ship among the 100 best restaurants in Austria. His refined yet down-to-earth dishes bear witness to a great passion for the best products. In the future, he will prove that regionality and international twist can shine side by side on the plate in the gourmet restaurant.

Restaurant "Ernele"

Ernele - the shop in the Romantik Hotel Das Schiff in Hittisau - brings together under one roof all the fine delights that the Bregenzerwald and the surrounding area have to offer.

To browse, to shop or to enjoy right here. At Ernele, you can eat excellently, shop with pleasure or stop in comfortably, for example for a good glass of wine. Between shelves full of hand-picked specialities from the Bregenzerwald and the surrounding area, we spoil you with selected regional speciality cuisine. Chef Felix Groß is an advocate of regionality, he passionately refines products from within a maximum radius of 100 km, absolutely fresh and from selected partners. For him, "from nose to tail" is not an empty slogan, but a meaningful conviction.

Sustainability

A small farm with all kinds of farm animals and its own bee colonies - these were the beginnings of the "Schiffles". What began with hosting guests in the farmhouse parlour grew over generations into a smart 4-star hotel with all the comforts.

The Romantik Hotel Das Schiff is proud of its roots and has never forgotten them. For many years, the large vegetable and herb garden has been cultivated in order to offer our guests as much produce as possible from regional, sustainable and organic farming. In other areas, too, a responsible approach to nature and its resources is very important to Romantik Hotel Das Schiff.

Regional cuisine - short distances

Eggs, butter, cheese and dairy products, fish and meat, flour, semolina, berries, fruit, honey, etc.

Many regional producers and suppliers supply the Romantik Hotel Das Schiff with the best products from the immediate surroundings:

The short distances save unnecessary transport kilometres and also support the traditional dairy and agriculture of the Bregenzerwald.
At breakfast, the hotel offers a plastic- and packaging-free range of products.

Use everything - waste nothing

At the Ernele shop, nose-to-tail recycling is not a buzzword, but quite logical. In addition to the dishes on the menu, the chef also recommends daily changing creations - depending on what went into the fisherman's net or came before the hunter's lens.

Around the hotel

Relax

In the small but fine wellness area, nothing obstructs your view of nature and the vastness. Let your gaze wander, come to rest, experience silence and wonder. Finnish sauna, tepidarium, steam bath, solarium, experience shower and whirlpool invite you to relax.

The pool in the large and absolutely peaceful garden is pleasantly heated all year round and has an indoor entry. Everyone will find their favourite spot in the well-kept garden. Attentive, sensitive and well-trained staff will pamper you on request with various massages, soothing treatments in the soft-pack lounger and cosmetic "delights".
