Original Kinderhotels Europa: Frequently Asked Questions
What do the Premium and Premium+ labels mean?
Original Kinderhotels Europa grades members on childcare volume: Premium requires at least 40 hours of qualified care a week, Premium+ at least 60 hours plus baby care and two qualified carers per house.
Is it a hotel chain?
No. Original Kinderhotels Europa is a cooperation of independent, family-run 4-star and 5-star houses, so style, price and food differ from one member to the next even under the same label.
How many hotels are members?
Roughly 30 hotels across Austria, Italy and Croatia carry the Original Kinderhotels Europa badge, with the Austrian members concentrated in Tyrol, Salzburg, Carinthia and Styria.
Does membership guarantee all-inclusive pricing?
Some member houses offer all-inclusive board covering breakfast, lunch, cake, dinner and soft drinks, but Original Kinderhotels Europa does not require it, so check the board basis before booking.
How does it differ from Familotel?
Original Kinderhotels Europa and Familotel are separate marketing cooperations with their own criteria. A hotel belongs to one or the other, which is why comparing labels across brands rarely works.
