The hotel is managed by Oliver Schreiber and Elmar Lutzenberger as Geschäftsführer. Its core offerings comprise accommodation (rooms and suites with half-board), the BergSPA wellness facility (sauna landscape, Black Forest hammam, indoor and outdoor pools), the Restaurant L'OS Rouge and bar, the WohlFit fitness program, and the Basenfasten alkaline fasting program.

The technology stack is built on the vioma CMS platform with integrated booking via vioma BOOKING and Guestline, restaurant reservations via Gastronovi, property management via Smart Host, and AI-powered guest communication via DialogShift (chat, email, and phone AI on EU servers). Web analytics and paid acquisition run on Google Analytics 4, Google Ads, and Google Tag Manager.

Revenue is generated through unit-based pricing per person per night for accommodation, per package for conferences and DaySpa, per treatment for spa services, and à la carte for F&B. Distribution is primarily direct via the hotel website and a small set of OTA and wellness directories (TripAdvisor, Wellness-Heaven.de, Wellness-Hotels & Resorts). Customer segments include wellness and spa enthusiasts, nature and active travelers, corporate conference planners, and couples or individuals seeking short retreats. The hotel is independently operated with no parent company, no external investors, and no disclosed funding activity.
