Gut Sein

Komfort

Some places offer more than just space; they offer a sense of calm. Set amid the gentle natural surroundings of the Lavant Valley in Carinthia, the thoughtfully run Gut Sein invites you to let go and reconnect with yourself. Yoga in the orchard, qigong in the forest, the soothing warmth of the Swiss Pine Sauna and massages that reach body and mind – everything here follows the rhythm of nature and the need for genuine rest. The regional cuisine delights with carefully chosen ingredients, lovingly prepared, from fresh porridge at breakfast to dinner at the traditional family-run inn. Each of the nine individually designed rooms offers a sense of comfort, making Gut Sein a place to retreat for those who want to feel fully alive and simply be.

St. Georgen im Lavanttal lies amid Carinthia’s gentle rolling hills. Surrounded by meadows, forests and the foothills of the Koralpe mountains, the region invites you to hike, cycle and take a moment to pause. If you’re looking for peace and a sense of timelessness, you’ll find a place where time seems to slow down and life can be savoured more mindfully.

At Gut Sein, the day begins at a gentle pace with a breakfast that brings warmth and energy. The small buffet offers seasonal fruit, homemade cake, fresh spreads and regional specialities. There are also lovingly prepared à la carte dishes, such as delicate egg dishes and creamy porridge. Everything is thoughtfully selected, with many organic ingredients, and always made with care. Lunch is light and satisfying: salads served in jars, flavourful soups or a sausage from the hotel’s own butchery — simple, honest food that’s perfect for a break on the terrace or out in nature. In the afternoon, the lounge invites you to pause for tea, cake and little treats. And in the evening? Pauliwirt, just next door, opens its doors. A hearty three-course menu featuring regional specialities and vegetarian alternatives brings a satisfying close to a peaceful day.

Breathe in. Breathe out. Feel. At Gut Sein, you can take time to reconnect with yourself. Different yin yoga and qigong sessions take place each day, included in your stay and designed to nurture mindful, holistic wellbeing. In the summer months, classes move outdoors: beneath fruit trees or in the forest, nature becomes a quiet companion on your inner journey. The small, carefully designed wellness area features a soothing Swiss Pine Sauna, an infrared cabin and a Kneipp pool. It is open daily from 4 pm to 8 pm. For added relaxation, you can also request classic massages, facial treatments, shiatsu or singing bowl treatments.

The cosy lounge with bar is a relaxing place to spend time throughout the day. Enjoy a quiet moment in the small library, play a board or card game, or simply take in the gentle rhythm of hotel life. A walk alongside the stream lets you experience the soothing power of water and unwind deeply. The hotel’s surroundings are ideal for outdoor activities. Hiking, cycling and Kneipp treatments at refreshing springs offer plenty of ways to discover the beauty of the Carinthian landscape. You can also immerse yourself in hands-on experiences, such as bread-making or cheese-making courses, and get to know the local culture.
