North Sea wind and Alpine breeze
Crazy about city life? Longing for country vibes? You'll find both with us! Urban Nature Hotels are places of contrasts. Somewhere in between. Vibrant and quiet. Cosmopolitan with local color. Diverse and headstrong. We are as lively as the North Sea, as free as fresh, clear mountain air and as colorful as a rainbow after a summer rain shower. Between coastal breeze and Alpine panorama, rooftop bar and infinity pool, espresso martini and mountain spring water: a place for all those who don't want to choose between the tranquillity of nature and the allure of the urban.
We celebrate diversity – from early to late, young to old and from St. Peter-Ording to Bad Gastein. And we invite you to find your place to be – somewhere in between.
Good vibes. Great rates.

The Urban Nature Locations
We may be torn between places, but let’s create our own! Where North Sea waves meet the thrill of the mountains, self-care blends with soul food, and aesthetics are free from pretension – that’s where your break from everyday life and routine awaits you. Want to experience more of life at Urban Nature St. Peter-Ording? Or the joy of the mountains at Urban Nature Bad Gastein? It’s up to you.
Urban Nature Hotel St. Peter-Ording
“The world is mud-luscious and puddle-wonderful,” as E. E. Cummings writes in one of his poems. And we think that’s true. Because the Urban Nature Hotel St. Peter-Ording tells the story of the curious child within us who unexpectedly falls through a magical puddle – headfirst into an exciting world of contrasts. Let yourself be inspired by this childlike courage to be happy and discover the magic in the little things.
Waking up to a view of the wild dunes of St. Peter-Ording? It’s all included here! A refreshing drink on the rooftop terrace at Scraper’s Club? Coming right up! Chilling out at the Drifters Hang Out Bar or grabbing a beer from the late-night shop? Easy! A bit of ‘me-time’ at the Lila Wolken Self Care Club and that’s it!
Urban Nature Hotel Bad Gastein
Hardly any other place blends its contrasts as charmingly as the Urban Nature Bad Gastein. Built in 1791 as a stately spa palace right next to the Bad Gastein waterfall, its reopening in 2023 brought a new spirit to the breathtaking setting. Whilst the hotel now embraces a modern aesthetic, playful touches pay homage to the spa culture of bygone eras.
So it’s not enough just to stay on the surface. Come to Bad Gastein and dip a little deeper! Once you’ve had your fill of splashing about in the rooftop infinity pool, Auntie Heidi invites you to the table to take you on a culinary journey of discovery. And in the bars, we raise a glass to old friends and new encounters. Highballs, but a low-key atmosphere. Selected wines and cool drinks. With and without alcohol. Everything flows.
Wellness is a way of life
Whether it's the Lila Wolken Self Care Club in St. Peter-Ording or the Alpine Swim Club in Bad Gastein - we turn spa into relaxation and everyday life into time out. And the best thing? A visit to our spa clubs is already included in the room price. Look forward to a sauna session with a view of the dunes or a few laps in the pool with a mountain view. Need more? No problem, you're guaranteed to feel even better after an Urban Nature wellness treatment.
Our Aunties invite you to the table!
Whether it’s a North Sea breeze or Alpine air – our Aunties know how to cook with love. At Auntie Clara’s Restaurant in Urban Nature St. Peter-Ording, you’ll find comfort food with an international twist: dishes to share, to make you feel good, and to keep coming back for more. And at Auntie Heidi’s Kitchen at Urban Nature Bad Gastein, everything that belongs together comes together – carefully selected ingredients, Alpine inspiration and a pinch of surprise. Two kitchens, two personalities, one mission: to make you happy – the Urban Nature way.
. Naturally.
Urban Nature Hotels thrive on contrasts – and on the satisfaction of bringing them into balance. We believe that the city and nature are not mutually exclusive, but rather that their special power is revealed precisely through their interplay. This philosophy also shapes our daily actions – and is independently verified by our GreenSign certification.

: Frequently Asked Questions about Urban Nature Hotels
What makes an Urban Nature Hotel experience unique?
Our Urban Nature Hotels combine first-hand experiences of nature with an urban lifestyle. With us, you can enjoy stylish design, good food and a lively atmosphere – whilst being right out in nature, whether by the sea or in the mountains.
How many Urban Nature Hotels are there?
There are currently two: one Urban Nature Hotel in St. Peter-Ording on the North Sea coast and another Urban Nature Hotel in Bad Gastein in the Alps. Both embody the same concept: urban lifestyle meets nature, yet each has its own unique character.
What is the Urban Nature theme?
Somewhere in between.
Between urban lifestyle and fresh country air. Between a place of retreat and a favourite spot for new encounters. Urban Nature combines the best of both worlds: relaxing moments in nature and the vibrant sense of community, openness and shared experiences. This is exactly where you can switch off, recharge your batteries and still be right in the thick of things.
