About us
Now in its eighth generation, the Gehrung-Kauderer family operates the Hirsch Hotel in Ostfildern-Ruit and the Hotel Lamm in Ostfildern-Scharnhausen. Both houses have a more than 200-year tradition.
To be aware of this tradition and yet keep an eye on the future in an innovative way - this is the recipe for success of our company. After all, the strongest drivers of innovations are not strategies and concept ideas but emotions.
