Host information
Sebastian Baier
In 1830 Sebastian Georg Moser took over the village inn as the 16th innkeeper, to which Empress Maria Theresa of Austria had already awarded the “innkeeper’s rights” (Maria Theresa concession) in 1745 “for everlasting times”. Moser gave it its present name: “Wastlwirt” – whereby Wastl means nothing other than the dialectal short form of his first name Sebastian. As the first direct ancestor of Rudi Baier’s current innkeeper family, the brewery owner and master brewer Jakob Wieland bought the country inn in 1887 and served the self-brewed “Wastlbräu” there for the first time. At the beginning of the 20th century the daughter Maria Wieland takes over the inheritance. This marks the beginning of more than 50 years of successful “regency” for women.
The “reign of the women” ended in 1966, when Hermine Resch signed over the business to her daughter Josefine Baier and her husband Rudolf. The two of them built a hotel with about 50 rooms, a dining and event hall and an indoor swimming pool next to the old inn. Their son Rudi Baier has developed the traditional hotel into a 4-star hotel with a very special flair over the past few years with a lot of effort and attention to detail. Guests from all over the world appreciate the extraordinary ambience and the historical walls of the hotel. You can still feel this long host tradition in the Wastlwirt today. In 2017 Rudi Baier handed over the hotel to his son Sebastian, who in autumn 2019 initiated the future modernisation of the hotel without changing its charm. Till now – beside smaller improvements – 2/3 of all guest rooms and the whole SPA area have been renovated.
Your hosts Sebastian & Rudi Baier and the Wastlwirt team look forward to welcoming you.
