The Rococo palace that served as the von Trapp family's lakeside home in The Sound of Music, Schloss Leopoldskron is now a meticulously restored boutique hotel of profound historical romance. The private lake, gilded ballroom, and Venetian Room — used as a set in the film — make it one of the world's most cinematic hotel experiences.

Original stonework, low-vaulted ceilings, and 500 rotating artworks create an atmosphere that is simultaneously medieval and thoroughly modern.
