Hosts and History
Greetings, here we say “Gries Di” and “Pfiet Di” but also “Servus”. But the important thing is, it comes from the heart and it does with us!
Alpine inn in the 8th generation
Mir iber eis – About us
The families Probst, Gehring and Kozjak warmly welcome you. We, Florian, Simone & Christine with families work here in the business. Our senior hostess Angi and our senior host Werner still support us actively.
In December 2015, the business was handed over to us and we now continue it in the 8th generation.
Holidays at home, laugh, be cheerful and sometimes rest more often.

The Family History
1720 – The "Krone", first mentioned in history in 1720, was a year-round alpine pasture, which over time developed into a horse-changing station.
1836 – The first guests were accommodated.
1900 – At the beginning of 1900, the Krone was a post office, village inn with its own brewery, grocery store, agriculture, and the center of village life.
1980 – In 1980, we made the decision to specialize in families and predominantly use products from the local region in the kitchen. At that time a difficult situation, today a successful one.
1989 – Angi and Werner took over the "Alpengasthof Krone" from Angi's mother Sofie Burk and over the years developed and rebuilt it into a well-known hotel. Bertl Burk, Angi's father, passed away early in 1974 at the age of 59. He was a great initiator for Unterjoch and accomplished much (construction of ski lifts and the Bavarian Disabled Sports Home) and gave everything for his sport, cross-country skiing/combined. We decided to officially present ourselves as the first "Du-Hotel" in German-speaking Europe, based on the personal, family atmosphere with the guests.
1992 – The definitive breakthrough came in 1992 with the construction of the first apartment building with eight 2- and 3-room apartments.
1994 – Children's entertainment began with hourly individual activities, today it is 9 hours daily (except Sunday) with at least four supervisors.
1997 – Joined the then young Familotel cooperation.
1999 – Since 1999 we have expanded our offer with a masseur who visits us twice a week and pampers our guests with soothing massages.
2003 – Since 2003 we have operated our own beauty wellness oasis with massages, cosmetics, and great treatments with professionally qualified staff.
2006 – The apartment house Alpe Hörnlesee with eight apartments and the indoor pool were added.
2007 – Since 1989 we decided to keep horses and expanded this to a riding school in 2007.
2014 – Our eight 2-room apartments Buchlalp-Stuben were furnished in bright carved spruce wood from local forests.
2017 – Our youngest "child" is the apartment house "Rohnespitz", completed in December 2017, with eight spacious 2-room apartments and an underground garage.
