Hotel San Marco in Lannach near Graz<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

authentic, down-to-earth, family-run<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A place in the Styrian wine region where honest relationships matter.Where guests don’t just stay overnight, but become part of the small San Marco family \u2013 with trust, reliability, and a sense of belonging.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

A House with Character<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Hotel San Marco is a place for everyone on the go \u2013 whether for business, in transit, or on a motorcycle tour \u2013 who still values a good feeling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For us, it’s not just about staying overnight, but about the good feeling of being welcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About closeness that isn’t intrusive. About trust you feel even before entering a room. That’s what defines us. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why We Do What We Do<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes you don’t find your calling \u2013 your calling finds you.I came to the hotel business rather by chance, but it quickly became clear: this is my passion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I never just wanted to run a hotel.It was always about creating a place where people feel comfortable \u2013 not because everything is perfectly polished, but because it’s genuinely meant.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n

For me, what matters is authenticity \u2013 the brief conversation, an honest smile, and the feeling of being welcome.Together with a small, dedicated team, we embody warmth, reliability, and that little piece of home you feel as soon as you arrive.Sustainability is a matter of course for us \u2013 mindful in dealing with people, resources, and what endures.Our house stands for warmth instead of luxury and for hospitality you can feel.And when guests say goodbye:“I’ll be back \u2013 simply because I had a good time here,”<\/strong><\/em>then we know we’ve done everything right.Because guests become friends.<\/strong><\/p>Astrid Schaffler – Hostess at Hotel San Marco<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n

The Heart of the House \u2013 Hostess Astrid Schaffler with her Daughter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Astrid Schaffler manages the San Marco with heart, reliability, and a keen sense for people.She is a hostess by conviction \u2013 attentive, down-to-earth, and always close to her guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her daughter brings fresh energy to the house and, like her mother, stands for what makes San Marco special: warmth, trust, and a genuine welcome.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“A guest once said: I travel a lot for work, but here it almost feels like home. That’s the best compliment for me.<\/strong>“<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Such encounters mean more to me than any review, says hostess Astrid.Because at San Marco, it’s not about numbers, but about people who are on the go \u2013 and arrive here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am delighted for everyone who takes this moment with them \u2013 and perhaps keeps a piece of it.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Here in Western Styria, at the gateway to the Schilcher wine region, not far from Graz and the Lipizzaner region, we want to show:Hospitality is not a concept, but our passion \u2013 and thus our attitude. And that’s exactly what we live every day here.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

Our Team \u2013 well-coordinated, friendly, authentic<\/h2>\n\n

For us, teamwork matters \u2013 everyone knows what’s important.<\/p>\n\n

Whether at the reception, during breakfast, or in housekeeping \u2013 everyone on the team contributes to ensuring everything runs smoothly.<\/p>\n\n

We believe that genuine service has nothing to do with routine, but with a joy for people.<\/p>\n\n
