Culinary delights in Bad Ischl Freedom means to indulge in our desires

In every dish, a decision. In every sip, a secret.

Rediscover Austrian classics from the Salzkammergut. Indulge in sweet temptations. A violet spritz at dusk and conversations that last. Feel life and succumb to pleasure. For a cuisine that prefers to paraphrase rather than quote. And for evenings that don't succumb to time limits, but free themselves from it.

The dishes are light, precise and full of character, prepared to a standard that places craftsmanship above staging. The restaurant welcomes guests of the hotel as well as visitors who appreciate modern cuisine in the Salzkammergut.
