Anyone who knows Marlene knows that she is so much more than the hostess of our hotel. She is the heart and soul of Hotel Gruber, welcoming every guest with warmth, kindness, and genuine care. With her special gift for making people feel at home, she turns guests into friends and holidays into cherished memories.

Always ready with a listening ear, a kind word, and a warm smile, Marlene is there whenever someone needs her. Her evening walks through the dining room have become a beloved tradition for many of our guests. She takes time to stop at every table, ask how the day has been, listen to stories, and make everyone feel truly welcome. These small moments are often the ones guests remember most.

Another of Marlene’s great passions is flowers. With love, dedication, and endless patience, she transforms the balconies of the hotel into a sea of colourful blossoms year after year. Guests never cease to admire the beauty she creates. And if you happen to meet her among her flowers, you will always find time for a friendly chat and a heartfelt smile.

As much as Marlene cares for our guests, her love for her family is just as great. As a proud grandmother to Alex and Daniel, she fills their lives with warmth, affection, and countless special moments. And like every wonderful grandmother, she occasionally lets them get away with things that their parents might not always approve of.

Marlene is the person who gives our hotel its soul. Through her warmth, dedication, and unwavering care for others, she has helped shape Hotel Gruber into the special place it is today – a place of genuine hospitality, heartfelt connections, and the kind of warmth that makes guests want to return again and again.

Some people make a house run. Marlene makes it come alive. With her love for people, she gives Hotel Gruber the most precious gift a host can offer: genuine warmth.

Thank you, Mom, for being exactly who you are. Without you, Hotel Gruber would not be Hotel Gruber.
