The Köstinger-Marthe family
- Our history, our traditions & more…-
The foundation stone of our hotel was already laid in the mid-30s. At that time Mrs. Elise Hoche spent her annual summer holidays in the Olympiaregion Seefeld. When the Berlin Wall was built in 1961, Elise wanted to establish a second foothold in Austria for security reasons. They bought the property on which our hotel stands today. She opened the Pension Charlotte with her son and daughter-in-law Charlotte Hoche for the winter season 1963/64 (Olympic Winter Games). During the construction period, Wilhelm Köstinger, a former Nordic combined, met Christa Hoche (today's senior manager). In the following years, through their tireless diligence, they created the Hotel Charlotte almost as you know it today. Since 2006 their daughter Carola Marthe has taken over the management.
