Vacations in Austria with Babies and Toddlers
The Sandman and Bartli the Dwarf
For toddlers, their first vacation in Austria is a special experience. There’s so much new to discover, and they make friends with people from all over. Often, the only familiar faces are Mom and Dad. Here at the Rosenhof, there’s another character that just about every toddler is likely to recognize.
With our Sandmann, toddlers feel right at home on vacation in Austria
A Piece of Home
We want all our guests to feel completely at home. While adults and regulars tend to feel right at home at the Rosenhof fairly quickly, it can sometimes take a little longer for the little ones. But by evening at the latest, a familiar character makes his way through our restaurant: the Sandman. He’s accompanied by the Rosenhof kids. Then the chant goes: “The Sandman is here, the Sandman is here…” But it’s not even that late yet. Or is it? After all, a day in the Kleinwalsertal can be quite exciting. And in the evening, after the Sandman’s bedtime story, their eyes start to close almost on their own.
By the way, the Sandman is celebrating his birthday this month. On November 22, the little guy will turn 61. But you’d never guess his age just by looking at him. Another one who doesn’t look his age is our little dwarf Bartli.
November 22 — Happy birthday, dear Sandman!
The Best Friend of Young and Old
Bartli the Dwarf
Our little guy Bartli is originally from Switzerland, but has been living in the Kleinwalsertal for many years. He’s a true all-around talent:
- He sings like no one else: The CD is also available, autographed, at the reception desk.
- He's the best storyteller: Once a week, he tells all the (young) children a bedtime story.
- He is one of the most influential dwarves, with over 500 friends on Facebook.
- He's the best way to beat boredom: With us, toddlers will never be bored during their vacation in Austria!
But above all, Zwärg Bartli is one thing above all else—the best friend of all babies, toddlers, adults, and team members at the Rosenhof.
Anyone who has ever seen our dwarf Bartli perform live will always be happy to return to the Rosenhof.
