In 1969, when the Schluneggers moved to Kerrville to lease the Food & Beverage operation at the Inn of the Hills, they quickly built a long list of loyal customers. After the Inn was sold in 1972, the couple moved their popular restaurant, Annemarie’s Alpine Lodge at the Sunday House on Sidney Baker, which they operated for 20 years. Annemarie, the daughter of a well-respected mayor and judge in her hometown, became a much-loved and respected Kerrville hostess.

In 1993, the Schluneggers came home to the Inn of the Hills, and completely refurbished the resort hotel. Today, Hans and Annemarie have stepped back and encouraged their three children to move into management positions at the Inn. Kurt and Marian both graduated with degrees in Hotel and Motel Management. Kurt is general manager and oversees the day-to-day hotel operations. Marian is the manager of Annemarie’s Alpine Lodge Restaurant, but with her extensive training at the Inn she is able to effectively manage any department. Ueli, with his education in architectural engineering, directs all major expansions and construction projects at the hotel.
