Choose certified BIO HOTEL

All good hotel stories start with the innkeeper. When Domenico Petrone stepped outside his village inn Il Plonner that morning and his gaze fell on the rooster sitting on the maypole, he knew it was going to be a good day.
The hotel and the associated organic restaurant are located in the very heart of Oberpfaffenhofen, which is part of the Upper Bavarian municipality of Weßling. It is hard to believe that this place is so close to Munich. The farmer's wife waved over to Domenico from the churchyard. She would come over and bring him fresh eggs later that day. With a smile on his face, Domenico called "Buon giorno", went out into the beer garden beside the organic hotel and prepared everything for his guests, when suddenly a car drove up... The driver stopped in front of the organic hotel in Oberpfaffenhofen and turned down the side window. "Is there a room available?" the stranger asked. Domenico nodded and the man continued. "Got something tasty for a hungry traveller?" "Only the best of everything," Domenico replied. "Both in our rooms and at the table. We meet the highest standards: in our hotel and restaurant, organic quality takes top priority."
The guest switched off the engine and got out of his car. "So what is the Italian il before the Plonner all about?" The innkeeper smiled. "I'll tell you later..."

Take a deep breath and feel good: the bio-hotel is located in the heart of the Five-lake-area between the Alps and Munich, a cosmopolitan city.On the first floor of the organic hotel in Oberpfaffenhofen, the guest stepped out on the balcony and let his gaze wander across the picturesque hills of the Bavarian alpine upland laid out before him. The silhouettes of mountains adorned the horizon. From outside on the street, Domenico called to his guest "The lake of Weßling is just five minutes down the road. It is shaped like a giant heart. Just walk around it and see for yourself..."

Bad Kohlgrub is a true treasure trove
 
Settled in the beautiful landscape of the Ammergauer Alps near to Garmisch-Partenkirchen and Oberammergau, only an hour by car from Munich, you will find the idyllic "terrace village" of Bad Kohlgrub. With its delightful farmhouses, "Lüftl" art and the charm of its flower-filled gardens, guests have been feeling at home here for a long time; since 1870!

To eat and drink indulges your body and soul. When purchasing food products we put high emphasis on regionality and seasonality. Every filet, every potato and every grain – we know where it comes from and know our suppliers’ values. 
During the renovation of the restaurant we’ve created well-being areas, lighting atmosphere and background music complement each other. The colors are modern and harmonious. Our great passion and love is the sustainable, ethically valuable organic cuisine, especially the vegetarian and vegan natural cuisine.

Our project startet in 2013: We had the idea to create a holistic place for open-minded people and be a friends’ house. Everybody, who stays here, should feel well, eat well, drink well, sleep well, move well and think well. That was and is our vision. We bought an old farm house in Stanjel. Miran sold his good running art shop called “Art Ljubljana” to work on the project. Nina commuted between Stanjel and Ljubljana where she already had her healing centre called “Vita Nova” and in October 2014 Ana Pija was born.

After four years of renovating, we opened the Hotel St. Daniel including a gourmet restaurant in March 2017. A big challenge for us both as we are not from hotel or gastronomy business. Two months later we recognized, that we failed to place our health program “Vita Nova” rightly and concentrate on our USP: being a holistic place and a friends’ house. So we straightly went back to us and our vision and now we are working on our strategy every day. That means, that we concentrate on our personalized health program “Vita Nova” which includes organic food and a calm place to stay and sleep in a natrual and amical environment. We really feel well with what we offer you. And we do it from our heart. For sure, we haven’t realized all our ideas yet. But we will. Step by step. It is still a way to go where we will improve more and more with all the experience we earn from you, our clients and distributors.

Have a nice stay as our friends,

Nina & Miran

Where the past takes on a form.

THE PAST WRITTEN IN STONE AND IN PEOPLE

KARST
The Karst is a region of striking contrasts: it is rocky and barren, but also colourful, magical and generous. Due to the uniqueness of karst phenomena, its name has become known all over the world.
The Karst Plateau rises above the Adriatic Sea. From the peaks of the higher slopes, you can watch the sun sinking into the sea every evening.
When the Karst landscape whispers in the bora wind, when you walk between the labyrinths of stone walls, when a friendly hand offers you a slice of Karst prosciutto and a glass of Teran wine, you simply know that you are in the Karst Region.

MAN AND KARST
“... he seems tough, determined, persistent and defiant, as well as soft in the Mediterranean way, talkative, often openly emotional, inaccessible and flexible...” (Slovenian poet Ciril Zlobec in the foreword to the book Prgišče Krasa (A Handful of Karst))

In prehistoric times, the Karst man had already found his soul mate in the Karst Region. The symbiosis between man and Karst has shaped the modesty, strength and perseverance of the local character.
The soul of a Karst man is as vast as the region’s diversity. Just as you need time to explore the diverse Karst Region, you should not be in a hurry when getting to know the local people. Only when you feel their genuine hospitality, can you truly become a part of the Karst.

KARST VILLAGE
Stone houses in Karst villages stand so close together that they seem to whisper the stories of their inhabitants. The narrow streets are interwoven between the high walls of Karst houses in a complex pattern, bearing the trace of countless steps.
A Karst homestead is made of stone; sometimes it is mighty and sometimes modest, but always in line with the environment and natural laws.
The hardworking local people have created significant architectural elements that are nowadays still considered a model of artistic creativity.

ŠTANJEL
This fortified village has been marked by Romans, Turks, Venetians and Habsburgs. They all wanted Štanjel for themselves, but the village searched for people who would understand and respect it.
The soul of Štanjel recognized the perseverance and defiance of the Karst people and thus found its creators.

CUISINE
Time passes slowly in the Karst Region. Therefore, regional dishes are cooked slowly. The recipes pass down from one generation to the next and the housewives never cease improving on them. The secret of delicious cuisine is hidden in the select local ingredients that the Karst people grow with love in their gardens.

WINE
The Karst cellar has always been a status symbol of a homestead and a special, sacred place. You should enter it with great respect for the winemaker, who knows how to produce excellent wines of different varieties on a poor Karst soil.

The great pleasure of being in the midst of nature can be enjoyed every day: 
swimming in the crystal clear, deep blue sea, walking on old donkey trails or hiking in the mountains, exploring historical sites or old churches, will make each of your excursions an adventure.
