Kununu Top Company 2022
At the Forsthofgut, we always follow nature as an inspiration. Just like a tree, strong roots form the basis for the work at the Forsthofgut: these can be personal goals, training or one's own motivation. The roots nourish a strong trunk. At the Forsthofgut, this trunk is the team in which everyone fulfils their task with enthusiasm. It is not only the roots and trunk that make the tree grow and blossom, but also the environment. We want to create optimal conditions so that everyone can continue to develop.
Best Employer 2022 in the "Sustainability" Category
From a forestry operation to a luxurious nature hotel - and an excellent employer! The hotel history of the Forsthofgut has been closely linked to the region and nature for around four centuries, and the Schmuck family has been active here in Leogang for five generations. Thanks to these strong roots, they not only know how to inspire their guests; the employees also praise their employer and voted it number one in the category "sustainability". This makes the Forsthofgut a place of strength, a place of arrival, for employees as well as guests, but also for the hotelier family itself. - Excerpt from the rating
