About this Episode
In the heart of the Zillertal Valley, surrounded by alpine air and timeless architecture, Marie-Theres Egger continues her family’s legacy through Ziller Seasons — a collection of soulful Tyrolean retreats including Das Posthotel, Malis Garten, and HochLeger.
From a childhood spent greeting guests to leading the brand’s vision today, Marie-Theres embodies a new generation of hoteliers who merge heart with innovation. Her approach goes beyond wellness — it’s about harmony: between people and nature, heritage and modern design, technology and touch.
Each property whispers its own story — crafted with natural materials, powered by sustainable practices, and animated by personal connection. Guests are known by name, remembered by their favorite pillow, and welcomed back like old friends.
This episode invites listeners into the quiet power of human-centered hospitality — where growth is measured not only in bookings, but in belonging.
