Why traveling alone at the AVIVA Hotel is more than just a vacation.
Traveling alone, yet
still enjoying company and making new friends. How does that work?
If you’d like to travel alone, the AVIVA Hotel is the only hotel in Austria that specializes exclusively in solo travelers—without couples or children. Our “make friends” concept guarantees genuine companionship and new connections in a first-class wellness and event atmosphere.
Why the AVIVA is the top choice for solo travelers
The decision to travel alone is often the start of a great adventure. But finding the right destination can be difficult: many hotels are geared toward couples or families. The AVIVA Hotel breaks this mold. As a specialized singles hotel in Austria, we offer a safe space for individualists who seek freedom but don’t want to miss out on community. Here, you’re never “left out in the cold”—you’re always part of the community.
Just broken up with a partner, a committed single, or someone who enjoys traveling alone?
vacationing alone isn’t easy, and above all, it raises a lot of questions:
- What would be the ideal destination for my solo vacation? Where should I travel alone?
- What kind of vacation? A study trip, a beach vacation, or a wellness retreat?
- Should I set a higher travel budget, since there’s often a high single-room supplement to pay?
- And most importantly, do I want to make new friends or travel completely alone?
- Where can a man or woman go on vacation alone?
- How can I connect with other travelers or singles? How do I become part of the community?
- Where can a woman travel alone? Is traveling alone dangerous for a woman?
- Where can a single man or woman spend a vacation alone?
- On a wellness vacation, avoid sitting alone at the “side table,” avoid a small room with a high single-occupancy surcharge, and—most importantly—avoid feeling lonely or even getting pitying glances from couples in love?
- What options are there for solo travelers? Where can you find trips for solo travelers without a single-occupancy surcharge?
- A hotel without children would be ideal? An adults-only wellness hotel?
- A vacation for singles and solo travelers?
- A hotel just for sophisticated singles—exclusive and free of couples and families?
There’s an answer to all those questions… the AVIVA****s Single Hotel—where you make friends! A four-star superior hotel exclusively for singles, solo travelers, and friends in the Mühlviertel region of Upper Austria, 50 minutes from Passau and Linz. A vacation without couples or children!

Insider Tip from Christian
(Your host at AVIVA):
“Many guests ask me, ‘Is it weird to travel alone for the first time?’ My answer: Only until check-in – or, at the very latest, until the first dinner! At the AVIVA Hotel, we follow the ‘Make Friends’ principle. My personal advice: Come to the hotel bar for an aperitif—that’s where 90% of all vacation friendships are formed, even before the first course is served.”
Here’s what new guests have to say about the one-of-a-kind Hotel AVIVA:
Melanie, 38, from Berlin
As a recently single woman, I didn’t feel like sitting at home alone and feeling sorry for myself. So I decided on the spur of the moment to go on vacation by myself—a decision I haven’t regretted to this day.
After doing some research, I discovered the AVIVA Hotel in Austria—the only hotel specifically for singles! I was thrilled by the idea of meeting new friends and having fun together on vacation.
As soon as I arrived, I was warmly welcomed and could immediately sense that there was a great atmosphere here. The other guests were just as open-minded as I was, and we went out together on the very first evening.
During the day, there were plenty of opportunities for sports and relaxation: hiking in the mountains, spa treatments, yoga, a mountain bike tour, or playing volleyball on the hotel’s own court. And the evenings were definitely anything but boring—whether at the disco or the alpine party.
By the end of my stay at Hotel AVIVA, I not only had wonderful memories and a wealth of new experiences to take home—but also many new friends. I highly recommend that every single person take a chance on an adventure like this and enjoy life to the fullest!
Thomas, 47, from Konstanz
My first singles vacation at the AVIVA Hotel in Upper Austria was an unforgettable experience! I didn’t want a singles vacation with teenagers at Ballermann; instead, I specifically looked for a singles trip for people 40 and older. Although I was a little nervous at first about traveling alone, I received a very warm welcome at the hotel and immediately felt at home. The singles vacation at the AVIVA not only gave me the chance to meet new people, but also to have some time to myself and clear my head. I especially loved the varied activity program, which let me really burn off some energy. Whether it was Body Power, guided hikes, or mountain bike tours—there was something for everyone. The food at the hotel was also a real treat, and I truly enjoyed the delicious meals to my heart’s content. Overall, I can say that my first singles vacation at the AVIVA will definitely not be my last. I met many wonderful people and had an unforgettable time. For anyone who’s recently gone through a breakup or simply wants to travel alone, I can wholeheartedly recommend the AVIVA Hotel in Upper Austria! The hotel not only offers a great location and an extensive range of sports and wellness activities, but also a warm atmosphere where solo travelers immediately feel at home. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful—I felt well taken care of at all times.
I was particularly impressed by the hotel’s concept: there’s a strong emphasis on community here. There are plenty of opportunities to get to know other guests—whether over dinner together or during the various outdoor activities. I never felt alone and was able to fully enjoy my time there.
The area surrounding the AVIVA Hotel is also breathtakingly beautiful. The landscape is perfect for hiking or biking and offers many worthwhile destinations, such as Krumau or the Moldau Reservoir.
All in all, my stay at the AVIVA Hotel was simply perfect! I can’t wait to come back and make more unforgettable memories. So if you’re looking to spend a relaxing vacation surrounded by beautiful nature—whether alone or with friends—you should definitely plan a visit to the AVIVA!
