Our Vision

Our Vision is being the leading 360° tourism group in Central and Southeastern Europe.

Our Mission

We live 360° tourism – from planning to construction to management. This makes us an attractive partner for project developers, investors and banks and enables us to do what is crucial for our success: create unforgettable holiday moments that turn guests into loyal fans of our brand.

Our business goal
and how we achieve it

We think hotel industry in a new way and are constantly developing.

  • We are currently expanding our Premium Camping concept and realising new Premium Living by Falkensteiner projects.
  • With our crowdinvest strategy, we have found an innovative form of financing to further develop our brand and at the same time to bind our guests to the company.
  • As a premium hotel group, we pay attention to the highest quality at all levels.
  • For us, this also includes dealing with nature in a way that conserves resources as much as possible. We promote the circular economy by relying on regional products from F&B to cosmetics in the rooms.
  • We pay attention to sustainable construction methods in new projects and promote climate-friendly travel with compensation payments, among other things.
  • We want to implement sustainability in all areas of FMTG and work with various partners to achieve this goal.
