History
Established in 1971.
Johann Luschnitzky fell in love with Stubenberg valley and wanted to build a weekend home there, but was denied due to the area only being accessible for commercial purposes. Erla Semmler, the builder and namesake, hired an architect and built a hotel, the Lake Pension ERLA which officially opened in 1971. Over time, the hotel was expanded and modernized, eventually becoming the Boutique Hotel Erla in 2015. The renovation included re-furnishing of rooms, addition of suites and seminar rooms, and a wellness area. The hotel offers many sports activities and a harmonious ambiance.
Meet the Business Owner: Willy S.
I was born in 1986 in Graz and grew up in Stubenberg. The Erla hotel has always been a family business, so we were introduced to the business early on. After completing primary school and high school as well as a degree in Business Informatics, I decided in 2010 to take over the family business and expand it in 2015. The passion for delivering only the best quality to our guests always motivates us to expand our offerings. We are happy to have more and more repeat guests every year and personally, I could not imagine a more beautiful profession.
