The Hotel Pension Singer was founded by Hans and Irma Singer in 1928 and has ranked as one of the leading hotels of the Tyrol ever since. During these almost 80 years, largely due to the commitment of the second generation, Gunter and Gerti Singer, the Singer has developed into an elegant yet traditional hotel, which has been a proud member of the prestigious Relais Chateaux group since 1985. 1928 In December Hans and Irma Singer celebrated the grand opening of the Hotel Singer. Already in those days it was considered one of the leading hotels of the Tyrol and made a significant contribution to the development of tourism in Berwang. 1932 To accommodate the ever increasing number of international guests, the so called “Kleines Haus” (the Small House) was created as a separate building next to the hotel. 1950 A new
lounge and reception were constructed, forming a connection between the two existing buildings. 1957 After several years abroad, Gunter Singer, son of Hans and Irma Singer returned home, to start working in the family
business. 1969 A lift was installed in the central part of the hotel and each year extensive renovations were carried out. 1975 The Singer Stub’n on the ground floor was built as a
restaurant and night
club. 1978 In the autumn the old roofs were torn down, a 4 floor of luxury
rooms was added and covered by a new, more Tyrolean style of roof. 1980 Opening of the new
restaurant,
bar and Zirbenstube. 1982 Florian, the third generation of Singer's was born and the
Fitness Centre was built. 1984 The hotel
kitchen as well as all storage facilities were renovated and our impressive wine cellar was built. 1985 Co-founder of the hotel Mrs. Irma Singer passed away and in the same year the Singer Hotel became a member of the prestigious and renowned “Relais Chateaux” group. 1986 The hotel was extended by the creation of luxurious new
apartments and
suites in pinewood, many with open fireplaces. 1987 The founder of the hotel and great pioneer of tourism, KR Hans Singer passed away. 1988 We built an underground
garage and comfortable new accommodation for our employees. 1990 The lobby and the reception were extended and redecorated in old pine wood, with an elegant chanelier and an open staircase of wrought ironwork, leading to the mezzanine floor and cosy Kamin
lounge. 1991 The Hotel Singer bought the neighbouring house and land, which today accommodates today the SportSki-
shop “Hofherr”. 1993 Together with the local authority of Berwang we built the modern “Sonnalmbahn” 4-seater chairlift, which takes skiers up to the Hochalm. The lift and an apres-
ski bar are situated right next to the singer Stub'n and the
ski piste is equipped with snow-making machines. 1995 Many
bathrooms were renovated. 1998 The Singer Stub’n was redecorated, as well as many
guest rooms. 2000 The “Tiroler Stub’n” was carefully redecorated in keeping with the traditional style of the hotel. 2002 All corridors and staircases in the hotel were tastefully redecorated and a new fire detection system was installed. 2003 The first two “Roter Stein
Deluxe Junior Suites” with elegant marble
bathrooms were built. 2004 The new
breakfast buffet was built. 2005 In November was the completion and opening of the Singer's
SPA, situated opposite the hotel and reached by an underground walkway. 2007 Renovation of
9 double rooms, which are decorated now in an elegant, modern yet still alpine style.
