Film buffs will recognise the stunning 18th century Hotel Schloss Leopoldskron, with its idyllic lakeside setting, as one of the outdoor locations for The Sound of Music. What’s less well known is that the hotel’s lavish Venetian Room, created by renowned theatre impresario Max Reinhardt, was entirely re-created as a film set for interior scenes. Guests today stay in contemporary styled accommodation in 67 rooms and luxury suites.
