Art & Culture

Art and culture vultures will feel at home in Best Western Premier Hotel Weisses Kreuz. During the complete renovation in 2007 there was a great deal of emphasis placed on bringing together the 130 year history of the hotel with a modern interior design, thus creating a gratifying symbiosis of the traditional and the modern.

Even artists, such as Jan Fabre, have felt good while here with us. Artists especially love the rooms in the 5th floor, since the sweeping panorama of Lake Bodensee, or the view to the Pfänder can be inspiring.

You can find tips on current events in Bregenz and the surrounding area on the homepage for Bregenz Tourist Association.
