1973
The Scharfetter family converted the house at the foot of the Hauser Kaibling into the "Gasthof zur Krummholzhütte". Later, under the leadership of the Dobersberger family, the inn rose to the hotel business.

1986
Waltraud and Georg Bliem fulfilled their dream of creating a place that offers vacations for young and old, for the whole family. They bought the "Hotel Hauser Kaibling" and in the same course they renovated the first guest rooms and the club room.

1987
Junior manager Katharina Bliem was born. She was therefore always resident in the hotel from an early age. With her came the first petting animals, at first it was only rabbits, later the first donkeys Niki and Maya were added.

1990
The former Hotel Hauser Kaibling became a founding member of Kinderhotels Austria and thus vouched for a family-friendly vacation destination. Waltraud Bliem was also a board member of the group from the beginning and was thus able to play an active role in setting milestones for family vacations in Austria.

1992
Professional child care staff and hiking guides (in summer) were hired, thus bringing the hotel offer to a new level. In addition, our petting zoo was further expanded and many animals found a home with us.

1998
The constant growth of enthusiastic families demanded an addition to the back of the hotel with suites and a first expansion of the children's world.

2003
On December 23, 2003, the curtain fell on the Hotel Südseite, under which many energetic hands had been working for months on the largest addition in the hotel's history. The addition of the new restaurants, the enlargement of the rooms to suites, apartments and studios have changed the hotel permanently and increased the quality enormously.

2005
From the playground was created a real play paradise with ranch and many play facilities. From now on, the upper part of the garden was considered a quiet garden for parents, the lower garden was the summer heart for children. Shortly thereafter, the rustic Krummholzstüberl was converted into a cozy fireplace room.

2006
The wellness trend of the 2000s had also left its mark on us. Two small saunas in the indoor pool became an indoor pool with a large sunbathing area and a separate large wellness area for adults only, with three saunas and a large rest area. In the course of this, the 3rd large extension of our playroom was built on top of the wellness area: The ball pool was opened.

2010
The hotel lobby was remodeled, the guests from now on welcomed in the friendly reception area.

2011
Hotel Hauser Kaibling became Bliem's family hotel. A new era has begun. The new name should demonstrate even more precisely what the hotel stands for. A family hotel, run by a family. The unique, family atmosphere should also be reflected in the name.

2016
After several years with the Austrian Ski Association, the time was ripe for Katharina Bliem to join her parents' business. Since then, the marketing of the hotel has been in her hands. A new advertising presence, new homepage and a new mascot began to emerge.

2017
After more than 25 years as a member of Kinderhotels Austria, the time was ripe for a change. Due to the establishment of many large hotels in the Kinderhotel group with completely different concepts, we no longer felt that we belonged. In September 2017, we therefore left Kinderhotels and switched to Familyselecthotels. The Familyselecthotels are also a subgroup of the Kinderhotels, so we can continue to use the Kinderhotel Academy with numerous training opportunities for our Donki Club caregivers.
At the same time, Donki, our new mascot, also moved in with us. Donki is a cool sporty donkey who feels right at home in our hotel.

2018
The junior chef was born and has been mixing things up in the hotel ever since. At the same time, Katharina's husband Stefan joined the business and has been working as a hiking guide ever since. He also lovingly takes care of our garden, so that since then many new attractions for children have already been created.
In the fall of 2018, our indoor pool was also rebuilt from scratch and renovated, since then it shines in completely new splendor.

2019
From the platform kinderhotel.info we were elected at the beginning of the year among the best children's hotels in Europe. Place 25 in the overall ranking, with hundreds of rated hotels as well as place 1 in Styria honor us very much.

2020
Junior chef number 2 is on his way. In August 2020 our little Anton was born.

2022
The large, long-planned conversion of our indoor play area has finally been implemented. Since December 2022, with the start of the winter season, there's even more gaming fun. 

...what will happen next? We don't know what the future holds, but we can assure our guests that we will always put our heart and soul into our work and want to ensure for many, many years to come that families find the perfect platform for their time out together in a small, personal setting.

Your family Bliem & Team
