A family business with strong roots in the Alps

Das Hopfgarten Familotel Tyrol is part of the Pletzer Group, a family business with strong roots in the Tyrolean Alps. The story goes like this: commercial consultant Anton Pletzer – grown up on the Melk-Alm on the world-famous Hahnenkamm in Kitzbühel – was fascinated by the mountains, by tourism and by winter sports from a very young age. 

As promising young talent of the Kitzbühel Skiclub, the then 19-year-old old Anton decided to follow a different path: he founded his first company - an installation company - and thus laid the foundation for today's Pletzer Group. His love for the Alpine region and the passion for tourism are still unchanged today.

Since 1972 Anton Pletzer has been the chairmain of the Tourism Association Hopfgarten and since more than four decades he has been shareholder and managing director of the Bergbahn Hohe Salve. It was just a matter of time before the entrepreneur entered the hotel business, which started with the acquisition of Das Familotel Hopfgateren Tyrol in 2001.
