Sustainability and regionality on holiday

fam sustainable

At fam Hotels, sustainable aspects play a weighty role in all our steps and decisions. First and foremost, we want to offer you a sustainable and unforgettable family holiday. But we also save a lot of money - water, energy, waste and car journeys. For the sake of the environment.

For many years, we have been intensively committed to climate protection, biodiversity, regionality, resource conservation and social interaction. As a founding member of "turn to zero" (formerly Climate Neutrality Alliance 2025), we are proud that you can stay in our hotel climate neutrally since 2021.

Conscious Montafon

From the Sura Kees to the Montafon Stone Sheep

The bewusstmontafon association is committed to preserving the distinctive Montafon cultural landscape and its culinary delights. Raising awareness among locals and guests, cooperation between tourism and agriculture, the promotion of regional handicrafts or the cultivation of the endangered Montafon stone sheep breed are the main concerns of the energetic association. The region's culinary flagship product "Sura Kees" has a special significance.
